Typo Reporter \u2013 Spelling & Proofreading is a lightweight proofreading tool for WordPress. A reader spots a typo, selects the incorrect text, and submits a correction in a simple modal. You get the report; your content gets better.<\/p>\n\n

No external service. No complicated workflow. Just a fast way to turn readers into helpful contributors.<\/p>\n\n

Core Features<\/h3>\n\n

\ud83c\udfaf Simple typo reporting<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Visitors can click the \u201cReport a typo\u201d link below a post or select text and use Ctrl+Enter<\/code> (Cmd+Enter<\/code> on Mac) to open the reporting form.<\/p>\n\n

\ud83d\udcdd A focused review workflow<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

All reports are collected in the WordPress admin area, with the incorrect text, suggested correction, post, URL, and date available at a glance.<\/p>\n\n

\ud83d\udee1\ufe0f Built-in abuse protection<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Rate limiting and duplicate detection help keep the report queue useful without adding another anti-spam service. Reports provide an in-modal submitting state and success\/error feedback without browser dialogs.<\/p>\n\n

\u26a1 Lightweight on the front end<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

Typo Reporter \u2013 Spelling & Proofreading loads its assets only on single posts and pages. Report submissions use AJAX, so the plugin works well with page caching.<\/p>\n\n

\ud83c\udfa8 Easy to customize<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

The interface uses regular HTML and predictable typohunter-*<\/code> CSS classes, making it straightforward to adapt to your theme.<\/p>\n\n

\ud83d\udd12 Privacy-conscious by design<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

IP addresses are hashed for rate limiting and are not stored with reports. Inputs are sanitized, validated, and protected with WordPress nonces.<\/p>\n\n

Pro Features<\/h3>\n\n

Typo Reporter \u2013 Spelling & Proofreading Pro adds:<\/p>\n\n

    \n
  • Analytics with trends and most-reported posts<\/li>\n
  • Instant, daily, or weekly email notifications<\/li>\n
  • CSV and PDF report exports<\/li>\n
  • 30 reports per hour instead of 5<\/li>\n
  • Priority support<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n

    Business Features<\/h3>\n\n

    The Business plan unlocks team workflow tools on top of Pro:<\/p>\n\n

      \n
    • Internal notes on reports with author and timestamp<\/li>\n
    • Status tracking (New, In Progress, Resolved, Rejected, Duplicate)<\/li>\n
    • Multi-user access with WordPress roles and capabilities<\/li>\n
    • Advanced filtering by status, assignee, post, date range, type, and saved filters<\/li>\n
    • Custom branding (logo, colors, company name, custom CSS)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n

      How It Works<\/h3>\n\n
        \n
      1. A reader finds a typo in a post or page.<\/li>\n
      2. They select the incorrect text and press Ctrl+Enter<\/code> or Cmd+Enter<\/code>, or click the report link.<\/li>\n
      3. They enter the suggested correction and submit the report.<\/li>\n
      4. You review the report in Typo Reporter \u2013 Spelling & Proofreading > Reports<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
      5. You correct the content and keep publishing with confidence.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n

        Approved comments also include their own \u201cReport a typo\u201d link. Comment reports are linked to the specific comment in the admin report list.\nComment reporting is available to free and Pro users and can be enabled or disabled from Settings > Comment Reporting<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n

          \n
        1. In WordPress, go to Plugins > Add New<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
        2. Search for Typo Reporter \u2013 Spelling & Proofreading<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
        3. Install and activate the plugin.<\/li>\n
        4. Open Typo Reporter \u2013 Spelling & Proofreading<\/strong> from the WordPress admin menu.<\/li>\n
        5. In Settings<\/strong>, choose whether to enable text highlighting and database logging.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n

          You can also install Typo Reporter \u2013 Spelling & Proofreading manually:<\/p>\n\n

            \n
          1. Download the plugin ZIP file.<\/li>\n
          2. Go to Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
          3. Upload the ZIP file, install it, and activate the plugin.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n
            \n

            How do visitors report a typo?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

            They can click the \u201cReport a typo\u201d link displayed below single posts or, when comment reporting is enabled, after approved comments. They can also select text and press Ctrl+Enter<\/code> on Windows\/Linux or Cmd+Enter<\/code> on macOS. The form shows progress and submission feedback inside the modal.<\/p><\/dd>\n

            Where do I review reports?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

            Open Typo Reporter \u2013 Spelling & Proofreading > Reports<\/strong> in the WordPress admin menu. Reports include the selected text, correction, post, URL, and submission date. Reports from comments also link to the specific comment.<\/p><\/dd>\n

            Does Typo Reporter \u2013 Spelling & Proofreading work with any theme?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

            It is designed to work with any WordPress theme. The report link is added to enabled singular post types and approved comments, and the markup can be styled with your own CSS.<\/p><\/dd>\n

            Will Typo Reporter \u2013 Spelling & Proofreading slow down my site?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

            The front-end CSS and JavaScript load only on single posts and pages. Report submissions are handled asynchronously, and report data uses indexed database queries.<\/p><\/dd>\n

            Can I disable the keyboard shortcut?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

            Yes. Go to Typo Reporter \u2013 Spelling & Proofreading > Settings<\/strong> and disable Enable Text Highlighting<\/strong>. Visitors can still use the report link.<\/p><\/dd>\n

            How does the plugin prevent spam?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

            Free users can submit up to 5 reports per IP per one-hour rate-limit window. Pro users can submit up to 30. Duplicate reports for the same location, text, and correction within five minutes are rejected. The IP is hashed for the cache key and the raw address is not stored.<\/p><\/dd>\n

            Can I disable comment reporting?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

            Yes. Go to Typo Reporter \u2013 Spelling & Proofreading > Settings<\/strong> and uncheck Comment Reporting<\/strong>. Comment reporting is enabled by default unless the option is explicitly unchecked.<\/p><\/dd>\n

            Is personal information stored?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

            Typo Reporter \u2013 Spelling & Proofreading does not store IP addresses with reports. A hashed IP address is used temporarily for rate limiting. Review your own privacy policy and site configuration to determine the disclosures required for your installation.<\/p><\/dd>\n

            Can I export reports?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

            Yes. Typo Reporter \u2013 Spelling & Proofreading Pro can export reports to CSV or PDF, with optional date and post filters.<\/p><\/dd>\n

            What is the Business plan?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

            The Business plan adds collaboration features to Pro: internal notes, status tracking, role-based access for your team, advanced filtering, and custom branding. These features require a Business license.<\/p><\/dd>\n

            Are WP-CLI commands available?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

            Yes. Administrators can use wp typo-hunter stats<\/code>, wp typo-hunter reports list<\/code>, and wp typo-hunter reports export<\/code>. Maintenance commands include wp typo-hunter reports delete-old --before=YYYY-MM-DD --yes<\/code> and wp typo-hunter cache flush<\/code>.<\/p><\/dd>\n

            Can I customize the report link?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

            Yes. Go to Typo Reporter \u2013 Spelling & Proofreading > Settings<\/strong> and change the report link text. You can also override the plugin\u2019s CSS classes in your theme.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n
