Testimonials slider issue

Design help Localization

Hi all!
I’m using a testimonials slider, and it runs perfectly in the primary language (English). We have four slides with a vertical auto-scroll, and the slides change every few seconds as expected. However, in the second language (Hebrew, which is right-to-left), only the first slide appears. After a few seconds, it disappears as it should, but the next slide does not appear.

Has anyone else experienced this issue?

Hi there,

Webflow automatically supports RTL (right-to-left) script for Hebrew on published sites. To ensure proper text direction, you can:

  1. Adjust text direction in the Style panel:
    • Select the element containing Hebrew text
    • Navigate to the Style panel
    • Look for the “Text Direction” option under Typography settings
    • Choose RTL from the dropdown menu

Alternatively, you can add a custom direction attribute to the slider element:

  • Select the slider element
  • Open the Settings panel
  • Click on “Custom Attributes”
  • Add either dir=“rtl” or dir=“auto” as needed

Hopefully this helps! If you still need assistance, please reply here so somebody from the community can help.

Hi, thank you for your comment!

I’ve tried both options, but the slider still isn’t working. In the Hebrew version, the slides disappear to the left, making it seem like it’s the end of the slider. Is there any way to change the direction of the slides?

Hi Naor,

Afaik the Webflow slider does not directly support a right-to-left direction switch. Most likely the browser layout change caused by RTL is competing with the slider’s own scripts and the slide positions are mis-calculating.

You’d have to do some experimentation here, and test on your published site but I’d avoid forcing the layout of the main slider, mask, etc element as RTL. Only layout the slide content RTL.

I’d reset this setting, but might even force it LTR to ensure the scripts can math properly.
