As originally requested here, this mod provides buttons for users that regularly use the [ltr] and [rtl] tags, usually on forums that are multilingual and support languages such as Arabic.

It is compatible with all versions of SMF 2.0 from 2.0.1 onwards (it says 2.0.15 now, because that is the latest version of SMF 2.0, but the installation file will work with all future versions up to 2.0.99).


Install this modification through the package manager. It only edits three files, so nothing should go wrong.

Many thanks to Sarge for helping get the Arabic translation encoded correctly, and to the famfamfam Silk Icons set for the arrows used in the buttons.
