Using right-to-left languages

    I am using the **Directional** plugin as installed with TinyMCE / WordPress:

    https://www.tiny.cloud/docs/plugins/directionality/

    If I have some Arabic text, and when I am in the editor the text shows right aligned (even though my text alignment is still left).

    But when I submit my topic or reply the text (whilst still in the right-to-left direction) is now left aligned on the display.

    To get the display to display correctly I have to:

    – Use right-to-left direction

    – Use text align right

    I understand that my topic is a mixture of English and Arabic but i thought wherever the plugin content is enabled that it would sort it out.

    Just wondered if this is a bbpress style pack css matter since I am using your style.

    Thanks.

    style pack would not change rtl, but would not prevent it I think.

    I Can’t be sure, but suggest as a test you deactivate (you won’t lose settings) and see.

    bbpress will take rtl from the language set in WordPress, so if this is English then bbpress won’t change the way round.

    OK. I will try on the staging site. It was just funny that TinyMCE internally was displaying the rtl text on the right so I expected the same in the underlying post.

    Will investigate.
