WebCord uses the default chromium/electron spell checker which can be disabled in normal discord and in chromium by just right clicking on the message box. WebCord currently does not have the ability to disable the spell checker

Another related question is how to enable spell checking for other languages, not English only?

My temporary solution is put this line of code on line 371

mainWindow.webContents.session.setSpellCheckerEnabled(false);

Another workaround is edit /home/pablo/.config/WebCord/Preferences
with something like
{"electron":{"media":{"device_id_salt":"A267D7E33C450DD743629AF815A81DFB"}},"spellcheck":{"dictionaries":["es-ES"],"dictionary":""}}
(for Spanish (es-ES) in this case)

You can also set "spellcheck":false to disable spellchecking entirely.

I still prefer a toggle, but this is the best workaround.

I'd love to see a way to enable/disable spellchecking for multiple languages get implemented. Many users such as myself are bilingual and Electron only seems to enable spell checking of system language by default.
