Confluence Cloud - Support RTL languages (e.g. Hebrew, Arabic, Persian) for editing and searching

[ronen porat]

Hi,

We would like to have support for Hebrew (RTL language) both in search and editing within documents as well.

This would include:

• support for changing text direction in the editor
• proper rendering of Right to Left (RTL) text on Confluence pages
• support for text containing paragraphs or phrases with text in different directions (RTL and LTR)
• indexing and searching support for RTL languages.

does anyone know if there is a solution for this ?

Also a paid solutino is ok.

Thank you for advance,

Ronen

Hello Ronen,

Welcome to Community and thank you for reaching out!

I see you already found this, since your question title is the same and I see your comment, but I'll include it for anyone else that requires this and happens upon this question.

We have the feature request below:

• CONFCLOUD-1373 Support RTL languages (e.g. Hebrew, Arabic, Persian) for editing and searching

If you haven't yet, you can also click Vote for this issue as this helps is keep track of the number of users who would be interested in this feature.

For Confluence Server, there's a User Macro that can be created as a workaround. However, for Confluence Cloud, it's not possible to write a User Macro, and therefore there is no current workaround for Cloud. I can confirm that I am also not able to find a paid workaround for this.

You can remain subscribed to the feature request above if you want to be notified of any of that changes.

Best regards,

Shannon

Try this plugin

it can't be installed on the cloud. would you please add it to the marketplace so it would be available to the cloud users as well?

Confluence requires descriptor url in order to upload the app. What should I provide there?

You can try our RTL for Confluence App:

Cloud: RTL for Confluence | Atlassian Marketplace

DC: RTL for Confluence | Atlassian Marketplace
