 * It’s inadvisable to alter any code that’s subject to periodic updates for that
   very reason. All customization should be done via the various action and filter
   hooks available. Code using these hooks can reside in your own files, implemented
   as a custom plugin, theme, or child theme.
 * It’s important to hire someone well versed in this concept. We do not allow any
   conversations related to soliciting paid help in these forums. Sadly, people 
   with bad intent sometimes peruse forums looking for grift opportunities. For 
   your own protection, you are advised to ignore any unsolicited contacts due to
   this topic. A couple places where you can hire knowledgeable developers are [https://jobs.wordpress.net/](https://jobs.wordpress.net/)
   and [https://jetpack.pro/](https://jetpack.pro/).

 * Hi bcworkz
    sorry for late reply I am asking about RTL coding concepts I donot
   intend to hire any one from forum as an owner what are the deliverables which
   i should ask for when the RTL work is finished? Thank you

 * You’re not late, replies are frequently slow in these forums as everyone is a
   volunteer. Just mentioning you will hire someone elsewhere can result in unsolicited
   contacts. I recommend not replying to any such inquiries.
 * I would make a list of all the problems you need corrected. Successful completion
   of the work would involve correcting everything in the list, all without introducing
   any new problems. Bear in mind the person you hire may not read any RTL language,
   so the list may need to be overly descriptive. It’s an added benefit if someone
   reads the same language, or at least reads one of the RTL languages. But requiring
   such a qualification restricts the pool of potential devs you could hire. I’d
   rather have an experienced dev who does not read RTL over a marginal dev who 
   does read RTL.
