Joomfish does not translate the site for you. It displays the translations you manually entered.

Installing a language does not translate either. It lets display the User Interface in the said language if desired. It has no impact on the Contents themselves.

Joomla 3.x > Logged in the administration site > "Extentions" menu > "Language Manager" option > "Install language" button

In that page: From the list, select "Arabic Unitag" then click on "Install" button in the top right.

Go back to "Language Manager" and from the list, select Default in front of the "Arabic Unitag" line.

=> Now you have your front office website in the right to left direction and you should start posting in arabic.
