Please Help, right to left issue

Posted 16 years 6 months ago
- Hello Everyone,
  I am using Vortex template with joomla 1.5, I want to add arabic language (Right to Left) to the existing English version of the website and I need to convert vortex template from Left to Right to Right to Left.
  Please help me and instruct me on how to do that.
  Thanks in advance

- Add this to template_css.css:
  
  .wrapper { direction: rtl; }
  
  You'll have to change certain references of left, to right and vice versa. Use Firebug to analyze your site and find the involved codes to change.

- It will be more css changes. Add the .wrapper { direction: rtl; } to your template_css.css, then open your site in Firefox and inspect the css with Firebug to find out what needs to be changed.

  Through the Admin Backend
  Go to
  Extensions -> Template Manager
  Choose your template
  Click on "Edit CSS"
  Choose "template_css.css"
  
  If you're using FireFox, you can click once anywhere in the big text box and hit control-F and then type in what you need to find in the pop up find function on the bottom of the window.
