Description

Negaresh (نگارش) corrects common Persian typing mistakes in WordPress, using a patched copy of the Virastar library.

Fix before saving or on display. Correct the stored text when a post is saved, so the editor shows what readers get, or fix only what is displayed and never change the stored text.
33 rules you choose, each with an example: Persian digits, half spaces (ZWNJ) for prefixes and suffixes, Persian comma, semicolon and question mark, «guillemets», ellipsis, dashes, Kashida cleanup, spacing and more.
Try it on the settings page: paste text and see it fixed with the boxes you have checked, before saving.
Only text is changed. HTML tags, attributes, links, shortcodes and code (pre, code, script, style …) are never touched, and neither is text written only in English.
Leave a post alone from the editor sidebar, or part of a post with the CSS class negaresh-skip.
Fix this post now button in the block editor; Undo reverts it.
Fix existing posts in Tools Negaresh or with wp negaresh fix: see the changed lines first, and every change is kept in the post’s revisions.
Titles, hand written excerpts and comments can be fixed too (off by default).
Words to leave alone: brand names, quotations and other words Negaresh must never change.
A dashboard widget shows how many posts are fixed or waiting.
Multisite: set defaults for the whole network.
Persian translation included.

FAQ

Does it change my posts?: In “when a post is saved” mode (the default for new installs) the stored text is corrected when you save. In “when a post is displayed” mode (kept by sites upgrading from 4.x) nothing stored is ever changed. Posts you mark “Leave this post alone” are never changed.
Can I undo a bulk fix?: Yes. Before Negaresh changes an existing post it keeps the text as a revision, so each post can be restored from its revisions screen (when your site keeps revisions).
Will it break my HTML, shortcodes or code samples?: No. Only the text between tags is fixed; tags, attributes, shortcodes and the contents of pre, code, script, style, textarea, svg and math are left exactly as they are.
How do I keep a quote or a paragraph as it is?: In the block editor add negaresh-skip in Advanced Additional CSS class(es), or add data-negaresh="off" to an element in HTML.
