Hi @Faty

Did you tried to place the direction in your html?

  1. From you Admin page, go to Online store > Themes > Click the three dots on the theme you want to edit > Edit code
  2. Go to Layout folder and open the theme.liquid file
  3. Add dir=“rtl” before the closing angle bracket of html. See image below for reference
