Here is Orchard in Farsi! OrchardFa is a Persian translated version of Microsoft's open source CMS called Orchard.
Notice that this repository only contains ready to use version of OrchardFa. There is no difference between OrchardFa and official Orchard source code at this point. This is just manipulated version of stylesheets, themes and translated PO files.
How to use:
- Download repository as a zip file and extract it on C:\OrchardFa
- Run Webmatrix and go to Open Site > Folder as Site > choose C:\OrchardFa\Orchard (the root directory name is Orchard.)
- Run website from Webmatrix and your browser pops up and display Orchard Setup page.
- Choose a name and password for site, Choose SQL Compact and default profile
- After installation done, Go to dashboard (a link at bottom of default page) > Settings > General
- Under "default site culture" section click on "Add or remove supported cultures for the site." link and choose "fa-IR" culture then save it.
- Now in setting's general page, choose "fa-IR" culture and click Save button.
- Done! now you should see orchard in persian.
You can find some RTL themes in Orchard gallery. To find them, in Dashboard, click on Themes in navigation menu, then on Gallery tab, search for RTL tag. Choose a theme and click on Install link.
Here is my ContosoRTL theme, give it a try!
Issues: This project is not ready for commercial use, and there are known issues. As you probably saw, Dashboard menu's icons should be aligned at right. Also most of strings are not translated. so don't be shy and feel free to Fork OrchardFa and improve it!
