Title: Fix Image Rotation Author: Gagan Deep Singh Published: јули 9, 2015 Last modified: февруари 10, 2026 --- Search plugins ![](https://ps.w.org/fix-image-rotation/assets/icon-256x256.png?rev=1718626) # Fix Image Rotation By [Gagan Deep Singh](https://profiles.wordpress.org/gagan0123/) [Download](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/fix-image-rotation.2.2.2.zip) * [Details](https://mk.wordpress.org/plugins/fix-image-rotation/#description) * [Reviews](https://mk.wordpress.org/plugins/fix-image-rotation/#reviews) * [Installation](https://mk.wordpress.org/plugins/fix-image-rotation/#installation) * [Development](https://mk.wordpress.org/plugins/fix-image-rotation/#developers) [Support](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/fix-image-rotation/) ## Description Fix Image Rotation plugin fixes image orientation based on EXIF data. Fixes the mis-oriented images clicked via mobile phones. Functionally it filters all uploads and if EXIF->Orientation is set to a number greater than 1, then the image is re-saved with a new orientation before the image is processed by WordPress. **Though this functionality was implemented in WordPress 5.3, it is still broken in WordPress and does not take care of edge cases that this plugin handles** #### Special Thanks to [Shashwat Mittal](https://profiles.wordpress.org/shashwatmittal/) for meta data restoration of rotated images. [Mark Jaquith](https://profiles.wordpress.org/markjaquith/) for making the fix image rotation class more useful. [@tealborder](https://github.com/tealborder) for adding required library notice in plugins menu. [@broberson](https://github.com/broberson) for finding and fixing and issue with the plugin. [Benedikt](https://profiles.wordpress.org/bgrande/) for multiple contributions towards betterment of the plugin. #### Contribute To contribute to the plugin fork the [GitHub Repo](https://github.com/gagan0123/fix-image-rotation), make changes and send pull requests. #### Icon Attribution Icons made by [Picol](https://www.flaticon.com/authors/picol) is licensed by [CC 3.0 BY](http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/) ## Screenshots * [[ * Adding images of different orientations without this plugin. * [[ * Adding images of different orientations with this plugin. ## Installation 1. Add the plugin’s directory in the WordPress’ plugin directory. 2. Activate the plugin. 3. Enjoy your cup of coffee while the plugin takes care of the images. ## FAQ ### How it works? When an image is clicked by a camera or a phone, it stores some additional information about the image. One such information is Orientation. This plugin makes use of the Orientation value stored by the camera/phone and rotates or flips the image based on that. ### Where’s the settings page? This plugin works out of the box and does not require any settings. ### Can I contribute to the plugin? Yes you can. As mentioned in the description, just fork the [GitHub Repo](https://github.com/gagan0123/fix-image-rotation), make changes and send pull requests. You can even contribute by adding banner images and logos for the plugin. If you are familiar with GitHub, then fork the above repo and add the images in a folder named assets, and send pull request; else you can submit URLs to the images as support request. ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/764eb4b15fed33934a6208268c2a456fd587633cf5e7030c545e29fa62d614b8? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Doesn’t work](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/doesnt-work-3059/)󠁿 [deralict](https://profiles.wordpress.org/deralict/) декември 8, 2023 Doesn’t work with WP 6.4.2 ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/7c0f905ec3bcb9b7eb6506aa5a89eb9896b2c14793904903379406748760b995? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Works perfect](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/works-perfect-893/)󠁿 [Guy1992](https://profiles.wordpress.org/guy1992/) март 18, 2021 Our website is a multi user platform.
