Dhivehi Writer

A WordPress plugin to write Dhivehi (Thaana) inside otherwise English/LTR sites — proper right-to-left layout with bundled Thaana web fonts, working in both the Block and Classic editors.

Dhivehi Writer

Overview

  • Write Dhivehi (Thaana) on English/LTR WordPress sites with correct right-to-left layout.
  • Bundled Thaana web fonts (Faruma + Noto Sans Thaana) so Dhivehi renders on every visitor's device, not just ones with a Thaana font installed.
  • A "Dhivehi Section" Gutenberg block and an inline Dhivehi format button, plus Classic Editor toolbar support.
  • Correct dir="rtl" and lang="dv" attributes for accessibility and SEO, with configurable font, size and line-height applied live.
  • Self-updating from GitHub Releases, with a separate WordPress.org build variant.

Features

A Dhivehi Section block (an RTL container for paragraphs, headings and lists), an inline Dhivehi format button to mark any selection, Classic Editor toolbar buttons, bundled Faruma + Noto Sans Thaana web fonts, and live-configurable typography from Settings → Dhivehi Writer.
