How can I change “home” icon for loader?

We currently support FontAwesome icons for loader. To replace frontend loader use CSS code below (add it in Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS):

}

In the content, place the unicode value from here http://fontawesome.io/icon/ For example, if you want this icon: http://fontawesome.io/icon/snapchat-ghost/, type this code:

content: "\f2ac" !important;

Because f2ac is the value in the unicode field.

The theme supports any language. See here a short guide.

Does this theme support RTL ?

Yes, it does. When you will change your language in WordPress dashboard in Settings > General > Language to RTL language, your website will show all content right to left.

After I have translated some words of the theme, some pages stop to working.

After translation URL parts (slugs), the WordPress permalink cache should be dropped. To update permalinks go Settings > Permalinks and click on Save.

“Language dropdown” is enbaled in Customizer, but it is missing in header bar.

Please, find more details about language switcher here.
