Hello everyone,
I have searched related topic, there is many but no topics is answered problems which I have.
I have multilingual web site - VM version 2.6.0(updated one from old version), primary language is EN and secondary RU.

When I have finished creation  products for English Language then I made default language RU and started to make products in VM for Russian language, but in products suddenly appeared thumbnails from English language. I leave it how it is and continued work.


than I created Product Module for Russian language and have assigned to appropriate Russian menu(for main page only) and pointed from which category to show random products( I have created Product_ru category which is included all Russian products)
when I published website, it appears that  the same thumbnails as it was  in VM admin products menu is displayed for Russian language by Products Module assigned RU language.

Could not understand what is issue, kindly help me.

there is website link what I am describing - http://geex.ge/ru/

The flags in the frontend are controlled by Joomla. I have no experience with rtl languages, but maybe you can see in this tutorial, which includes Arabic as a rtl language, if you missed to configure something:

Please check if you have added your language (I suppose Farsi) in Joomla 'Extensions > Language Manager > Content'. If you have several languages, you will also need to add a language switcher module for each language.
