Profile photos rotated when uploaded from mobile

[Christina]

Is there a suggested solution for profiles photos that are rotated when uploaded from mobile for the profile photos? I see there is a setting in BB Media to fix mobile rotation, but I assume that doesn’t apply to profile photos?

Hi @secondfirsts, Profile image is uploaded by the BuddyPress and the uploaded image is not inserted as the Post/Media in the database it is directly saved and fetched from the uploads folder that’s why it can not be rotated by the BB media plugin configurations. It’s BuddyPress issue.

Fair enough. It would be really nice if you would provide an option to fix profile photos as well so we didn’t need a separate plugin with nearly duplicate functionality. Thanks!

At present we can not override the avatar upload functionality from media plugin , might be in our future update developer create functionality for it, do not have any ETA on it.
