Arabic Language Pack for Sitefinity CMS to Support Multilingual Administration

Expand the reach and accessibility of your digital experience by localizing the Sitefinity CMS backend for Arabic-speaking users. The Arabic Language Pack brings full interface translation and RTL layout support, making Sitefinity CMS easier to adopt for teams across the MENA region.

Overview

The Arabic Language Pack provides a localized backend interface for Sitefinity CMS, giving users access to menus, form fields, system messages and navigation elements in Arabic. With compatibility spanning Sitefinity versions 4.1 to current, this pack helps organizations meet regional language requirements and improve user productivity.

It includes right-to-left (RTL) formatting support and is particularly valuable for sectors such as government, education, finance and healthcare across Arabic-speaking regions.

Note: The language pack is fully translated through Sitefinity version 11.1. For newer versions, additional backend labels introduced after that release may need to be translated manually.

What Is the Arabic Language Pack?

The Arabic Language Pack is an installable resource that translates the Sitefinity CMS administrative interface into Arabic. Once deployed, it enables platform users to work in their preferred language while maintaining access to all CMS features and workflows.

It also supports:

  • Arabic script and right-to-left UI orientation

  • Accurate translation of CMS system labels and prompts

  • Role-based language settings for team members

Integration Overview

Installing the Arabic Language Pack requires downloading .resx language files from the official Sitefinity language pack repository. After integration, Arabic becomes an available language for the backend UI and can be enabled at both the system and user profile level.
