Hi guys,

Just got your new awesome template!
thing is, I need it in RTL mode. I already installed the language for RTL but it seems that some of the modules stay in LTR style.

I tried playing a little bit with "S5 Image and Content Fader v3" and "Get Free Code" positions but couldn't switch between them properly.  ??? ???

Any advise on RTLing my site the right way?

Thank you ;D

Hello,

I am not sure what your asking? Your images show two different layouts where the one on the bottom is for LTR. You can view an example of an RTL layout here:

You understood me very well, this is exacly what i want to do, but if you check the link the you have provided, you will see that its the same layout (RTL page) as the main page (except for the menu that moved to RTL, all the rest staid pretty much the same).

Can it be done? (Just like in the picture)
maybe its an issue with my computer that i cant see the page proparly?  ??? because its quit simple question what i have asked.

Hello,

Try clearing your cache. Your screenshots are how it appears in both formats by default. You may have a language cookie saved.

Hello,

What is your URL? Is an RTL language assigned to your other menu as default?

Hello,

Alright I see what you mean. The actual text inside the inputs is the only thing that is supposed to change to RTL. Since these are "custom" positions with an overlay for the IACF they aren't going to swap spots in the layout as it wouldn't look proper. They use % width padding's to properly overlay them on the Fader. I think the way it looks now is also generally how an RTL layout would look with the quote part on the left in RTL formatted text.

so if i understand you correctly, there is nothing I can do to modify the positions?

and if not for the slider, can i at least modify rest of the page?

I simply cannot accept that. even the <li>'s are not set right!!

In that case, I wouldn't call thing kind of template an RTL one.  >:( :-\ :-X

Hello,

For RTL we modify the text-direction to be in an RTL format as well as several other elements in the s5_responsive.css file. We also change several positions completely such as the Menu Bar, Footer Modules, Search etc. Certain elements as mentioned cannot be changed as they are positioned with absolute values and %'s which wouldn't work when toggled to a different format.

In terms of the <li> items can you provide an example of which ones aren't swapping to RTL format and I can take a look?

So thats it huh?

you can see <li> in the front page on the accordion tabs, they are not even directing to the right side (and its pretty simple to modify But nvm).

I wont call thise template RTL, i think the site is only half way done (if not less) in terms of RTLing.

As a long time customer i have to say that i am pretty disappointed and will think twice before purchasing another template.

Alright, So after aprox 5 min of checking the code, i manage to solve the problem, there goes the % huh?
you can login to www.dravizelba.co.il to see it fixed.

Will finish the rest of the site soon enough.

To bad you couldn't give me the right support because your templates really look good.

Hello,

Apologies, I had multiple threads open and was actually looking at the wrong source code for a different Template. For RTL I see the issues and have notified the designer with my notes below.

1) Remove !important values from left / right below:
:
Template.CSS - Line 1468

.slideInfoZone {
     background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% rgba(7, 7, 7, 0.35) ! important;
     bottom: auto ! important;
     height: 100% ! important;
     left: auto ! important;
     padding-bottom: 0px ! important;
     padding-left: 0px ! important;
     padding-right: 0px ! important;
     right: 0px ! important;
     width: 59.5% ! important;
}

2) Add to template_rtl.css file

:
#s5_pos_custom_4 {
	left: auto !important;}
	
	.slideInfoZone {
     left: 0px !important;
     right: auto !important;
}

3) Add to template_rtl.css to fix Tab Show list item bullet position.

:
ul.ul_check li {
    background: url("../images/s5_check.png") no-repeat scroll right top transparent !important;
    padding: 0 30px 0 0 !important;
    direction: rtl !important;
}

Should have this updated in the files soon.

Regards,

still not a good excuse! im paying a lot of money for your company ad expacting a real support.
what you gave me was simple miss guiding and untrue.

and further more, after you saw that i have managed that, you just copy paste what i have done in the css, dont be a smart ass!

i except your apologies, but not your excuses... next time try to be more kind by giving a real support and don't act like a robot (typing wrong answers without even thinking).

Yes and that is why I apologized as I was looking at the wrong source code. Following that I contacted the designer to let him know the RTL issues mentioned.

The coding is not the same. You just removed calls in the CSS files which wouldn't work with both RTL and LTR formats, just for one of them. The overrides will take effect when an RTL language is used.

i except your apologies, but not your excuses... next time try to be more kind by giving a real support and don't act like a robot (typing wrong answers without even thinking).

I already did apologize and notified the designer to make an update to the files (which is already done and released). I also said if you have any other RTL issues to let me know and I would take a look.

Regards,
