Hi Guys,

I've been with smugmug for quite some time now and I've just made some changes in the display of my site. Since I'm still a computer dummy I would appreciate some help here.

I have had an "About" page with just a photo of me and nothing written. I think I had "to be updated soon" written there for a few years :)

Anyway, since I live in Israel I thought I'd have two "About" pages, one in English and one in Hebrew. This is where I probably screwed up: In customization I copied the codes from my "About" page, changing the name with the Hebrew equivalent. I wrote up my piece and posted it. The thing is that now also on the English "About" the same thing appears, so it's actually a duplicate from the Hebrew version.

I have two questions here:
1. How can I have a seperate English version, not a duplicate of the Hebrew?
2. Hebrew goes from right to left and although I pushed all the lines to the far right, the final result still has the lines going from left to right, like in English.
How can I make the lines go from right to left?

As I mentioned earlier, I really am a computer dummy, so think 10-year-old when you explain something to me :)

Thanks for any help.

Hi Guys,

I've tried to create an ABOUT page in two languages. For that I copied the line from the existing ABOUT page inside the Custom Header and changed the name ABOUT into the other language, Hebrew.
On my Navigator bar both appeared, but when I wrote up my piece in Hebrew it appeared not only on the Hebrew ABOUT (the one with the weird font) but also on the English one. I have now deleted the original English version which leaves me only with the Hebrew one.

How can I create a new English version of ABOUT? The codes can't be the same as the Hebrew one otherwise it will again be a duplicate only with a different name.

What code should I put in instead of the one I deleted? :huh :dunno
