Unless you do some CSS -hacking which doesn't scale well when you have many RTL pages. - -In the future it would be nice to make the while wiki UI go right-to-left if the user -chooses, but right now what's really important to me as an RTL language user -is that the body text can go right-to-left. - -This can be done with CSS easily: - -[[!format css """ -body { - text-align: right; - direction: rtl; -} -"""]] - -Currently there are two ways to make specific pages be RTL: - -1. Include a local.css file with the above code as an attachment of each RTL page -2. Specify CSS with the [[ikiwiki/directive/meta]] directive - -The problem is that option 2 requires [[plugins/htmlscrubber]] to be off. - -My suggestion: Add a parameter to the meta directive, which allows adding -an *rtl.css* file in addition to the exisiting ones. This file can be both at the top-level -and per-page overriden, just like local.css. The page.tmpl file can then use the -meta field to conditionally use the rtl.css, both the wiki-global one and the -per-page one (just like it does with local.css, IIRC). - -And it won't require htmlscrubber off, just like local.css doesn't. - -In the future rtl.css can be extended to also RTLize the whole UI, e.g. including the -location of the "buttons" at the top, the page name, code blocks and so on. - -What do you think? I can try this and send a patch. It just requires an additional -meta field and a CSS file. - -For example, to make a page RTL include something like this inside it: - - \[[!meta dir="rtl"]] - -Please tell me what you think. - ---[[fr33domlover]] - -[[!tag wishlist]] |
