Arabic drop-down menus in v2 are in a different order than English drop-down menus #125

The English drop-down menus are organised (sometimes) by category and then alphabetically or chronologically. They make sense. I think the Arabic drop-downs are also organised alphabetically (?), but this means the order of the values in the drop downs are completely different from the order in English. A good example is the cultural period tab in the Heritage Place - in English, this starts chronolologically first with unknown, then with palaeolithic etc. In Arabic, إسلامي (Islamic) is the top.

Can the order in arabic be altered to exactly reflect the order in English? If this is an easy fix, can it be done quickly? With the more technical jargon, many of the trainees depend on a combination of both the English and Arabic to cross-reference between the two, and it would be incredibly helpful if it can be mirrored exactly.

Many thanks Letty

(This is also something to take on board for arches 4 development)

Hi @eamena-github , this was a pretty buried issue but I think I found the issue. The fix should be deployed to the Egypt v2 app. Could you let me know if it's solved?

Cool, I got some trainees to check it for me and we will let you know. Just thinking, might be worth implementing same thing in v2 Tunis/Libya if it's worked. And of course in future v2 training clones.
