12. According to Microsoft Word's spell check, traveller is incorrect.

And the word "traveller" is not in the dictionary.

13. It is traveler, but it often confuses me - also worshiper and worshiped.

I don't know why these don't get the doubled final consonant, but they don't.

I find it annoying, but the rules are the rules.
