Hey @ThemeSteam, RTL Support is very far from being finished.
Many things still seem broken.

@ThemeSteam I see you are still requiring copying over the SmartyFunctions folder.

There is an easier method:

<?php
class CubeThemeHooks implements Gdn_IPlugin {

   public function Setup() { }

   public function Gdn_Smarty_Init_Handler($sender) {
      $sender->plugins_dir[] = dirname(__FILE__) . DS . 'library' . DS . 'vendors' . DS . 'SmartyPlugins';
   }

}

Place this in your root theme folder as class.cubethemehooks.php. Then move your smarty plugins to library/vendors/SmartyPlugins relative to your theme root.

This simplifies your set up immensely.

You should also get rid of your view overrides that are just added CSS classes. If you still want to be lazy, use SASS to compile your selectors.

@ThemeSteam well, I don't really have the time to work on another rtl-fixes file, but I'll tell you the gist of it.

• Font family defaults to sans-serif because Open Sans does not support Hebrew. Open Sans Hebrew is available here: https://www.google.com/fonts/earlyaccess
• Signature/tags/meta missing margin.
• Category view is broken in Hebrew.

There are more things but I just don't have the time to look into them.

Your new Theme, Clark, is nice, but I think you forgot to include Roboto. (Font defaults to serif)

In the side bar, there are 3 links to /categories, 2 links to /activities and 2 links to /discussions - that could be stripped down a bit

There is a hover effect only in the nav and nowhere else. That is inconsistent. For the user it is not obvious that the nav part is in any way different than the normal modules.

Links are not visible. They are styled just like normal text. The box "Sign In or Register to comment." is more confusing than helpful if it is not obvious what you have to do there (I first clicked on the arrow)

Avatars are helpers so that a forum user quickly is able to see who have written a post. That's why I think showing them only on hover is a bad idea. Besides of that: too many on hover effects are hectic.

I don't like that violet. There is a checkbox styled as a switch when you register and I wasn't able to see what corresponds to "checked".

The checkboxes in "Notification Preferences" are unstyled, which is not consistent.

Something that has to do with how you have configured the demo: when logged in, I wasn't allow to see discussions. What I got was a "x No discussions were found.". When I see such a x I try to click on it. But that is not an active part of the user interface

When you click on Sign In and the popup opens, there is no visual way to get back from there. If I press ESC (I use the keyboard very often), the popup disappears, but the blur stays until I click anywhere on the page. Although I like the blur effect very much, that sucks

Clicking on Register brings out a small panel at the very edge of the screen ad a very big and impressive photo. When I click on "Register", my main intent is to register so all that is needed for this action should be in the main focus. Not some picture.

Looking on the profile with a small viewport is a dead end. You see the activity and that's it. No way to see discussions and comments of this person.

At the profile, the icons of Joined, Visits, Last Active are not aligned. And speaking of those icons: I never understood why those icons are picked. They do not transport the meaning they should.

Many Thanks nocte. That's enough and helpful.

Thank you robin , I think some of problems are not the problem! for example checkboxes, I wrote only for entry pages. because they are very big i don't like to put them on settings.

It seems you like it and please consider all items reviewed/quality checked. **I will pay attention to details that you mention. **

Sincerely
