Implemented Auto rotate attached images

[AndyB]

When we upload an image (using the Upload a File button) from an iPad or iPhone, the Xenforo software should check the EXIF and determine if the image needs to be orientated. This would prevent uploaded images from showing in the message in the incorrect orientation (ie: upside down or sideways).

You'll need to ensure your PHP build supports EXIF.

Specifically it's the exif_read_data function:

Why doesn't this work on my forum, my members are uploading sideways images all the time, is there a way to enable it?

The EXIF information in images isn't always correct.

To test hold the phone or tablet in a vertical position and take two pictures, one in landscape and one in portrait, upload both as attachments and see if they orientation is correct, it should be.
