rtl in write box

Hi, @thehospitalegy

I assume you want to use WordPress Dashboard in English intentionally? If you change the Dashboard language to Arabic, the entire Dashboard will be rtl. (& site as well if your theme has a rtl stylesheet).

If you don’t want to change your language, you could use this PHP snippet in your theme (ideally child theme – so it won’t vanish when the theme gets an update) functions.php file.

This is only briefly tested and experimental so make sure you have a backup before testing yourself.

add_filter('locale', 'rtl_when_editing');
function rtl_when_editing () {
	global $pagenow;
	if( is_admin() && ( $pagenow == 'post.php' || $pagenow == 'post-new.php' ) ) {
		global $wp_locale;
		$wp_locale->text_direction = 'rtl';
	}
}

This changes the page orientation to rtl when editing posts & pages and when adding new posts & pages.

Hope this helps,
Kind regards!
