Auto Image Rotate for iPhone and iPad [Deleted]

[AndyB]

@AndyB This worked for awhile, what could make it not work suddenly?

Have you tested it? Take a picture with your iPhone or iPad in different orientations and see what happens when you attach the image.

Not me, the original member that told me of the problem. I didn't do this part by the way -
Admin CP -> Home -> Options -> Attachments -> Default Image Processor -> ImageMagick PECL Extension
-
but it did work when I first did the modification without this setting.

Perhaps my host shut off imageMagick?

How do you have this set now?

 

[tommydamic68]

Like so. Like I said, I have never changed this and at first, it did work for this person. If you are going to ask me to change it, how will it effect my images and can it be set back? Thanks.

I just realized something, I check and the modified upload.php and it was back to its original state. What may have happened is that I got a server error a week or so ago and @Mike had me re-upload a file and I can't remember the name of it or find the thread. It did fix the server error. Will this hack cause a server error on the ACP back end?

Maybe its possible to make an addon?

This modification will not cause server errors. But you do need to confirm ImageMagick is working.

In my previous post I asked which image processor you have checked.

 

[tommydamic68]

Answered with image.

 

[AndyB]

Answered with image.

Ask your web hosting company to install ImageMagick with PECL and switch to that image processor. Once that is done and the upload.php file is modified, the image auto rotation will work.

How does switching processors effect my images on server?

 

[tommydamic68]

Is there specific modules or extensions you need enabled as far as PECL?

Thumbnails and avatars will have higher resolution.

The addon would look like this:

listener: load_class
hint: XenForo_Upload
Listener: AutoRotate_Listener::loadClass

class AutoRotate_Listener

public function loadClass
{
extend[] = 'AutoRotate_Upload';
}

class AutoRotate_Upload extends XFCP_AutoRotate_Upload
{
  protected function _checkImageState()
{
  if ($this->_imageInfo !== null)
     {
       return;
     }

     $this->_imageInfo = false; // default to not an image

exec("/usr/bin/mogrify -auto-orient $this->_tempFile");
return parent::_checkImageState();
}
}

There might be some errors, but maybe this helps you.

Do I need yo rebuild anything after swithing?

 

[Marcus]

Do I need yo rebuild anything after swithing?

I guess so. In the ACP should be a new function to rebuild attachments (since 1.2 or 1.2.1).

No you don't need to anything after switching.

 

[tommydamic68]

FYI - you must install this hack again when upgrading to Xenforo 1.2.2

Was there a issue? Is that why it was removed?
