Highlights:

Web Spell Checker ended support for WebSpellChecker Dialog on December 31st, 2021. This means the plugin is not supported any longer. Therefore, we decided to deprecate and remove the WebSpellChecker Dialog plugin from CKEditor 4 presets.

We strongly encourage everyone to choose one of the other available spellchecking solutions - Spell Check As You Type (SCAYT) or WProofreader.

Fixed issues:

  • #5097: [Chrome] Fixed: Incorrect conversion of points to pixels while using CKEDITOR.tools.convertToPx().
  • #5044: Fixed: select elements with multiple attribute had incorrect styling. Thanks to John R. D’Orazio!

Other changes:

  • #5093: Deprecated and removed WebSpellChecker Dialog from presets.
  • #5127: Deprecated the CKEDITOR.rnd property to discourage using it in a security-sensitive context.
  • #5087: Improved the jQuery adapter by replacing a deprecated jQuery API with existing counterparts. Thanks to Fran Boon!
  • #5128: Improved the Emoji definitions encoding set by the config.emoji_emojiListUrl configuration option.
