Does it support RTL languages?

Changelog
1.0.9
- Removed the “Plugin Language” setting – with no bundled translation files, it had no visible effect until a translation is contributed via translate.wordpress.org, so it was just confusing to show it now.
1.0.8
- Fixed bugs
1.0.7
- Fixed bugs
1.0.6
- Slide/button link fields no longer force a strict URL format that silently blocked saving when a scheme like https:// wasn’t typed.
- Forced
text-decoration: noneon the slide button’s hover/focus state so it can no longer pick up an underline from theme styles. - Removed a
stepconstraint on the autoplay speed field that could silently block the whole settings form from saving. - Text padding fields now start empty (instead of 0) so their directional placeholders (top/right/bottom/left) are visible until a value is entered.
1.0.5
- Fixed the full-width layout showing only half the slider on mobile (a leftover
left/rightoffset was never reset at the mobile breakpoint). - The slide button no longer requires a link to be set before it will display; it was silently disappearing if only the button text was filled in.
