Typo Reporter – Spelling & Proofreading

0/5 (0 ratings) — active installs Updated Sep 24, 2026

Typo Reporter – 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.

No external service. No complicated workflow. Just a fast way to turn readers into helpful contributors.

Core Features

🎯 Simple typo reporting

Visitors can click the “Report a typo” link below a post or select text and use Ctrl+Enter (Cmd+Enter on Mac) to open the reporting form.

📝 A focused review workflow

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

🛡️ Built-in abuse protection

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.

⚡ Lightweight on the front end

Typo Reporter – Spelling & Proofreading loads its assets only on single posts and pages. Report submissions use AJAX, so the plugin works well with page caching.

🎨 Easy to customize

The interface uses regular HTML and predictable typohunter-* CSS classes, making it straightforward to adapt to your theme.

🔒 Privacy-conscious by design

IP addresses are hashed for rate limiting and are not stored with reports. Inputs are sanitized, validated, and protected with WordPress nonces.

Pro Features

Typo Reporter – Spelling & Proofreading Pro adds:

  • Analytics with trends and most-reported posts

How It Works

  1. A reader finds a typo in a post or page.
  2. They select the incorrect text and press Ctrl+Enter or Cmd+Enter, or click the report link.
  3. They enter the suggested correction and submit the report.
  4. You review the report in Typo Reporter – Spelling & Proofreading > Reports.
  5. You correct the content and keep publishing with confidence.

Approved comments also include their own “Report a typo” link. Comment reports are linked to the specific comment in the admin report list.
Comment reporting is available to free and Pro users and can be enabled or disabled from Settings > Comment Reporting.
