Wix Multilingual: Using Multi-State Boxes to Switch From LTR to RTL
Warning:Your site's SEO will be impacted by adding multi-state boxes because search engine bots cannot read the boxes' content. Some languages like English are written from left-to-right (LTR), while others like Hebrew are written from right-to-left (RTL). If your multilingual site supports both types, you can add multi-state boxes that display different content based on the selected language. This allows you to create a different 'state' for each language and tailor the design individually. Step 1 | Add a Multi-State Box in your site's main language versionThe first step is adding a blank multi-state box to your site in your main language. Design it for that language, adding text, images, buttons or any element you need. Before you begin:Make sure you've added Wix Multilingual to your site and enabled Velo by Wix. 
Go to your editor. Click Add  on the left side of your editor.  Click Box. Click Multi-State Boxes. Drag the Blank multi-state box to the relevant location on your page.  Add elements to the box and design it as you wish.  Step 2 | Change the current state's name Once your box is ready in your main language, open the Manage States panel to rename the current state. Call it "default", in that exact spelling and capitalization (without the quotation marks), to ensure the code you'll add functions properly.  
Select your multi-state box. Click Manage States.  Click the More Actions icon  next to the current state's name. Select Edit ID. Type "default" in the text box and click Done. Step 3 | Duplicate the state and rename itAfter creating the "default" state in the Manage States panel, duplicate it and call the new one "RTL". Similarly to the first step, it's important that you call it "RTL", in that exact spelling and punctuation, so the code works as it should. 
Select your multi-state box. Click Manage States.  Click the More Actions icon  next to the current state's name. Select Duplicate. Click the More Actions  icon next to the duplicate state.  Select Edit ID. Type "RTL" in the text box and click Done. 
Note: If your secondary language is LTR, you can change the state's name to LTR instead.   Note:Make sure your multi-state box's element ID is identical in all parts of the code. In the steps above, the example box's ID is #statebox8. Step 4 | Adjust your box in the secondary languageNow, your multi-state box is set up and ready for translation. Switch to your RTL language, change the state to RTL and start localizing your content. Then, copy the code snippet to your page's code. 
Click the Switch languages drop-down menu at the top of the editor. 
Select the RTL language you want to edit.  Click the multi-state box dropdown and select RTL. 
Select the element in the box that you want to translate:
    
Text: Click Edit Translation or Auto-translate to translate the text. Then, click the Change text direction icon  in the Text Settings panel to switch the text direction. Images: Click Edit Translation, then click Change to choose a different image for the RTL version of your site.  
Copy the following code snippet below and paste it in the Page Code Tab in your editor.import wixWindow from 'wix-window';
const RTLLangs = ['he','ar','fa'];
$w.onReady(function () {
    let lang = wixWindow.multilingual.currentLanguage;
    //based on RTL
    /////////////////////////////////////
    if(RTLLangs.includes(lang)){
        $w('#statebox8').changeState('RTL');
        }
    //based on exact match or default:
    /////////////////////////////////////
    let states = $w('#statebox8').states;
    let foundStates = states.filter((state)=>{state.id === lang});
    if(foundStates.length>0){
        $w('#statebox8').changeState(foundStates[0]);
    }
    else{
        $w('#statebox8').changeState('default');
    }
});
