Right-to-left Language Support Available for New Google Sites

Google has added right-to-left language support in new Google Sites for the following languages:

• Arabic
• Farsi
• Hebrew
• Urdu

When a site editor has their language set to one of the above, the site editing experience will adjust to place the editing sidebars and menus on the left-hand side of the screen.

Similarly, once a site is published, site viewers who have their default language set to one of the above will see navigation elements like menus reversed to match the right-to-left language.
