This brings into the equation multilingual complications (left to right and right to left) as well as incorporating bright colorful designs. The two sites came to our support team in need of a complete overhaul of the theme and i18n configuration.

To fix many items and missing components throughout the site including:

• Pathing and redirect issues throughout the site

• Drupal menu system
• Broken Theme Structure
• Missing / Broken images (mainly due to internationalization)
• Heavy internationalization issues (site is in 7 different languages)
• Server Migration from 2 mirrored servers to one server (cutting client costs)

Solutions

The support team created brand new themes for both sites that where to Drupal standard. Workflow was also addressed by leveraging a number of contributing modules as well as some custom built modules to meet niche needs.
