Be aware that RTL layout looks a little bit different when using English text in an RTL setup. So the exclamation mark thing there is probably not an actual issue.

if it is possible to modify these codes for RTL formatting please.

The location of this button must also be changed and rotated

As a first step, adding direction:ltr to the wrapping div could help: This is an RTL site with an RTL admin, In the example below I added the direction:ltr to the wrapping DIV of the Site Kit UI.

Notes from a quick look through I did a few weeks back:

• Audit our CSS usage for places where we are using things like margin-left and try for margin-inline-start
• Alternatively/in-additon to the above: create an RTL stylesheet that is loaded for RTL languages that inverts the relevant CSS.
• Given we don't currently support any RTL languages, use the above suggestion of direction: ltr; for Site Kit enclosing divs to prevent layout issues inside Site Kit.

These are probably some of the biggest things to do.

I tried to load some RTL languages but Site Kit… didn't seem to honour my language choices. See: #7819.

@tofumatt Is there anything more you are planning to do on this ticket or you need help from someone? What do we need to do to help it move to the next stage of the process (AC review, IB)?

[tofumatt]

@ivonac4 This one is pretty low-priority but I'll unassign myself for now. There's a lot of further auditing needed but this might actually be a good candidate for a Hackathon project in the future.
