Shape 5

Hi Shape5,

I searched and read the problem of orientation of text (RTL) with the Arabic languages.
I tried to resolve problem by myself inserting direction:RTL; into template_css.css

Maybe i wrong position, maybe wrong someting else but i can't view chancing to my demo website.

in the example of url please attention of Number of votes: 349 and not 349: text text in Arabic languages
http://www.atcesercizio.it/index.php?option=com_poll&view=poll&id=14&Itemid=107&lang=ar

Also, and equally important how can I reverse position of the menu in the top of site "Home" to right and the other to left?

Can Shape5 help me?

Thanks in advance and sorry for my bad English

Hello,

Change template_css.css (line 618) to:

#s5_menu {
float:right;
height:30px;
}

Change template_css.css (line 622) to:

#s5_search {
float:left;

And lastly change suckerfish.css (line 53) to:

#navv li {
background:transparent none repeat scroll 0 0;
float:right;
height:27px;
padding-left:0;
}

Thanks for your reply
but, with this editing will not go to change also the orientation for the Italian and Spanish pages?

I use joomfish for translating (if is important for your reply)

Sorry for dripping

I found this on joomla.org forum http://forum.joomla.org/viewtopic.php?f=485&t=371329 (http://forum.joomla.org/viewtopic.php?f=485&t=371329) about the possibility to change template by RTL declaration into language/ar-DZ/ar-DZ.xml

in index.php
<?php if($this->direction == 'rtl') : ?>
   <link href="<?php echo $this->baseurl ?>/templates/rhuk_milkyway/css/template_rtl.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<?php endif; ?>


Can i make two different templates (template_css.css  and template_css_rtl.css) where in the second i put your changes code? And where exactly I put the code above in the index.php file ?

Thanks a lot again

Yes you are correct, you can make 2 separate style sheets and use the php code from Joomla.org to specify which one is used on a site wide basis.

Regards,

Hi,

this the code to past in index.php (maybe usefull for other members)

<?php
if($this->direction == 'rtl') {
echo "<link href=\"".$LiveSite."templates/commportal/css/template_css_rtl.css\" rel=\"stylesheet\" type=\"text/css\" />";
}else{
echo "<link href=\"".$LiveSite."templates/commportal/css/template_css.css\" rel=\"stylesheet\" type=\"text/css\" media=\"screen\" />";
}
?>

And

<?php if (($s5_menu  == "1") || ($s5_menu  == "2") || ($s5_menu  == "3") ) { ?>
   <?php
      if($this->direction == 'rtl') {
      echo "<link href=\"".$LiveSite."templates/commportal/css/suckerfish_rtl.css\" rel=\"stylesheet\" type=\"text/css\" media=\"screen\" />";
      }else{
      echo "<link href=\"".$LiveSite."templates/commportal/css/suckerfish.css\" rel=\"stylesheet\" type=\"text/css\" media=\"screen\" />";
      }
   ?>
<?php } ?>

Jonahh, if you check at http://www.atcesercizio.it/index.php?lang=ar we have some problems:

Hello,

In response to your points:

a) the serch text is not properly aligned: where i can made changed?

template_css_rtl.css look for the below and change the margin to what I have:


b) S5 Frontpage Slide don't show the content

I'm not sure on this one, if you PM FTP details I could take a look.

c) S5 Frontpage Slide, the arrow can be moved to left?

I believe its in the style.css file included with this module, look for:


Change it to:


You may have to edit the arrow.jpg and add some white to left of the image for some padding as it will scrunch up to the left side.
