Yes. RIPLanka.info supports Sinhala, Tamil, and English across memorial details, blog articles, and where applicable, notices and tributes.

Yes. Memorial owners can edit details and the visual design of their memorial at any time by signing in and using the edit options available on the memorial page.

You can delete a memorial from your account dashboard. Please note that deleting a memorial permanently removes its photos, tributes, offerings, and all associated data — this cannot be undone.

Offerings are symbolic gestures of love and remembrance — flowers, candles, oil lamps, and bouquets — that visitors can place on a memorial. Some offerings (like flowers) are free for a limited time, while others are paid for longer durations such as 3 months or 1 year.

On any memorial page, click "Send Condolence", choose a card design, personalise it with your message and name using the built-in editor, and submit. You'll need to be signed in to publish a condolence card.

Once an offering's duration ends, it moves to the memorial's "Past Offerings" section, where it remains visible as a record of remembrance but is shown in a muted style.

Notices allow memorial owners to share three types of announcements: Appreciation messages (thank you notes), Almsgiving event announcements (with date, location map, and contact details), and Remembrance notices marking milestones such as a 1-month or 1-year anniversary.

Memorial owners can upload a death certificate for review through the verification option on their memorial page. Once our team approves it, the memorial displays a verified badge.
