The 2026 Drupal Business Survey is open. Your response will help shape the future of the Drupal business ecosystem.Right and Left are incorrect, because in RTL languages the sidebars should change sides. I've renamed them to primary and secondary.

amitaibuForgot the zen.info file.

amitaibubtw, depends on #283978: RTL support for IE stylesheets

johnalbinInterestingly, Layout Studio uses Secondary and Tertiary as the names of the sidebars. Presumably, this is because the main content is the "primary" source of content. :-\
I'm glad you left the variables as $left and $right since Drupal treats those variable names specially.
Amitai, I apologize for not getting to these RTL issues sooner! Things have been crazy busy for me. But I want these RTL issues to be one of the first things I get to for Zen 6.x-2.x.

johnalbinTrying to attach the patch again.

johnalbinOk. I've committed this patch.
However, I'm going to be tracking the Drupal 7 issue for #226587: Default sidebar region labels are confusing (wrong) for RTL languages and if that issue decides to use a different naming scheme for D7's sidebars, I'll use those names.
Thanks, Amitai!

johnalbinGiven the recent discussion in #226587: Default sidebar region labels are confusing (wrong) for RTL languages, I'm going to change the sidebar names from primary/secondary to first/second.
Comment #11
johnalbinOk, the changes have been committed. I hope I got everything.
