Hi, Thanks for sharing the helpful collection.

Download theme from ThemeForest
Thanks for curating the helpful collection. I am trying to create a site in Urdu language and downloaded some of your recommended themes, but couldn’t find a place in the theme settings to change my site to RTL.
What I am missing? Can someone help?
Hey Zia,
Could you please tell me which theme you are talking about?
For now, I suggest that you change the language of WordPress to any RTL Language from your WordPress Admin Panel in settings » General » Site Language.
I tried Envince and Point. The problem is I cannot find Urdu language in the language settings. If I choose Arabic, everything becomes arabic which I dont understand. Also, the headings of my website also changes to Arabic. Is there a way that everything stays in English and just the layout change to RTL?
No, you need to change the language of WordPress to an RTL language, it will not work with English even if you used another theme because English is LTR Language.
Try to switch to any other RTL language that you understand or look for Urdu translation for WordPress.
