RTL CSS

Tumblr is a pretty interesting mini-blogging platform that's getting really popular recently. But with RTL, it's horrible! In the text editor, you cannot even right align your text and it strips off any inline styles if you try to add it yourself (I know!! totally unacceptable). In this tutorial I'll show you how to RTL your Tumblr theme completely or have it bidirectional.

OpenCart is a powerful open source shopping cart system. It has many features that enables you to setup your e-commerce business easily. Although the system is multilingual and templatable, its default theme doesn't support RTL. Here's how to add it..

A new Wordpress theme as been RTLed: Multichrome

"Remember the RTLer? that tool which flips your css from left to right!" "well, how does that thing works exactly?" "Here's how..."

zBench, one of the best themes available on the WP.org themes directory, with that nice layout and light design. It's ideal for small and personal blogs, it has custom RSS, twitter and facebook links to add in the header too.... awesome isn't it?

To change the language of a WordPress site, just update the WPLANG constant in your wp-config.php file:
{syntaxhighlighter brush:php}
define ('WPLANG', 'ar'); //changes the language of the site to Arabic
{/syntaxhighlighter}

WordPress has this very easy and straight forward logic when it comes to RTLing themes. It simply checks for the direction of the language you're using in your WP installation, if it happens to be 'rtl'(Arabic for example) it includes the stylesheet rtl.css if it exists. This means that RTLing a WP theme is creating this rtl.css file. A detailed tutorial is coming up soon about RTLing WP themes

 jCarousel is a beautiful jQuery plugin. Personally it's one of my favorites! You can set up your caoursel up and running in just one line or two. Even theming it is easy. According to the project's page:

jCarousel is a jQuery plugin for controlling a list of items in horizontal or vertical order. The items, which can be static HTML content or loaded with (or without) AJAX, can be scrolled back and forth (with or without animation).

The only thing missing in this wonderful plugin is the RTL support. And in this tutorial, it won't miss it anymore.

We're super excited to release another RTLed Wordpress Theme this week:

Since more than half of the RTL-This visitors want to see RTLed CMS Templates (according to our poll), we have successfully RTLed a free WordPress theme and is ready to be download.
