  I need to write Arabic blogs, but I can’t figure out how to write from right to left?
  I used Right Alignment, but the numbers and punctuation keep going from left to right.

  Thanks,

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there, Is your entire site in Arabic or only certain sections?

  If it’s the first, you can change your site settings to Arabic (AR) in https://wordpress.com/settings/general/ then make sure your theme supports RTL
  https://wordpress.com/themes/filter/rtl-language-support

  If it’s the second and you want your site’s primary language to be a LTR (including Titles), you can add P tags to the sections (posts or pages) in Arabic when you are writing
  1. Go to the HTML tab or Code Editor of the post or page.
  2. In the paragraphs that read from right-to-left add “dir=rtl” to the paragraph tag so it reads: <p dir=rtl>

  Let us know how that goes.
