Wordpress-ios: Can't add title and editor looks blank in RTL

Created on 15 Jul 2020  路  5Comments  路  Source: wordpress-mobile/WordPress-iOS

Expected behavior

I expect to see place holders for "Add title" and "start writing".
I expect to be able to add a title

Actual behavior

I can't adda title and there are no place holders for the title and content so it's hard to know where to tap to start writing.

Steps to reproduce the behavior

  1. Have your device on RTL language
  2. Create a new post
  3. See no placeholders and not being able to add title

I wonder if this is only an issue in Hebrew or generally in RTL languages cc: @rachelmcr

Ah, good catch! I see the same when I set the app to Arabic. I also noticed that I don't see a cursor on screen even when the paragraph block has focus. If I type, it enters the text there, and if I delete all the text I see the placeholder flash on screen for a split second, but that's it.

@hypest can we please make sure this is taken care of ASAP? Thanks

At some point this was working properly. I think we are not testing RTL enough after important UI changes.

Thanks for self-assigning @etoledom !
