International Accessibility: Language settings & RTL text #458
Comments
Will this work well with block spoilers or any other block formatting? Might wanna check that out if you already haven't. |
@marlencrabapple it does as well as the current setup does. I've compared them and it seems okay. |
Issues with commit 320616:

There seems to be an issue with Exodus (the android application) after the recent changes. The app doesn't recognize the line breaks, making all the posts appear as if they're one line. I guess this is because of the change from <br to <p. Can that be fixed? I think the developer has been inactive for a while so we hope it can be fixed through the site itself, as the app is very important to many of us. |
@justpassingbynow can you please link me to your extension's page so I can install it? |
@wingy needs to fix that, he develops Exodus. It's third party and has nothing to do with us |
I think we fixed all the problems with this, and someone opened a PR on @wingy Exodus. So either rebuild Exodus or use the APK someone built already (I have no idea if it contains a virus, just found it on /operate/): http://nreboot.com/chan/app-release.apk |
There are a few big issues for International users at the moment.
As a part of this ticket I will be introducing the following fixes.
For number 3, if we have a post like this:
The first paragraph will be wrapped in a tag like this:
<p class="ltr"></p>
The second paragraph will be wrapped in a tag like this:
<p class="rtl"></p>
This will allow English and Arabic text to exist in the same post and still be rendered RTL or LTR correctly.
StackOverflow has offered a solution for detecting arabic text. We can extend this to other RTL languages in the future.
