    Hi LAY dev-team,
    I was wondering if you're already thinking/working on a way to implent RTL-support (right-to-left) for lay-theme? I'm soon taking on a project for an arabic translation agency where RTL will be mandatory... If I'm not wrong there is no option, yet. I thought it could be interesting for you developers to possibly widening the audience of LAY and to give it a shot, starting the discussion about it.

    thanks for your reply.
    best regards, M.

      so the text is right-aligned and when you type the cursor moves from right to left,
      is that correct?

        hi @arminunruh correct, that's the concept.
        maybe there is an option that I didn't think of.
        possibly mirroring via .css and applying the right fonts to text.
        but generally numbers, dates and some exceptions exist where RTL will read as LTR, in arabic.

          when clicking this button:

          that button will be added with the next lay theme update

          is there anything else that needs to change for RTL to work?

            I also code custom websites or custom Lay features.

            Before you post:
            1. When using a WordPress Cache plugin, disable it or clear your cache.
            2. Update Lay Theme and all Lay Theme Addons
            3. Disable all Plugins
            4. Go to Lay Options → Custom CSS & HTML, click "Turn Off All Custom Code", click "Save Changes"

            This often solves issues you might run into

            When you post:
            1. Post a link to where the problem is
            2. Does the problem happen on Chrome, Firefox, Safari or iPhone or Android?
            3. If the problem is difficult to explain, post screenshots / link to a video to explain it
