Hi,

I'm planning on using eZpublish for a Hebrew site (working on a tranlation at the moment) and I was wondering if any effort to include Right-To-Left support in eZpublish has been made. As a 1st step I'd love to hear someone-more-experienced-with-eZpublish-than-myself's thoughts on how to use eZpublish for an RTL language site. As a 2nd step, what would it take to make a multilingual eZpublish site that could easily swap between RTL and LTR languages (e.g. Hebrew & English)?

Is there a "direction" attribute assigned for each language (this is relevant to both content and the site's skeleton text & design)? Are there any examples of sites using eZpublish for RTL languages?

Thank you,
Ophir

Hi Ofir,
I've expirienced more then once developing hebrew websites using eZpublish CMS.
I'm afraid your question is irrelevant since RTL issue is related to the templates you create and not to the translations engine.
Since you are creating a siteaccess for each language you will have a different design folder for each lang. there you could easily design a RTL template and a LTR template separatly.
I hope I'm answering your question.
Feel free to ask.
