    Hello, everyone!
    My blog is currently not displaying my posts correctly. The photos are being flipped on their side and my most recent post isn’t showing up at all. I am using the Sela theme.

    I’d really appreciate some help! Thank you in advance.

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Hi @lomonahan21 ,

    Here is the Image support doc: https://en.support.wordpress.com/images/
    I thought you may want to bookmark it, if you have not already. There is a ton of helpful information there.

    You are able to edit the orientation of your images. Here’s how:

    If you need any additional help, please let me know!
    Best Wishes!

    staff-zinnia,
    I should have specified. My images are set in the correct orientation upon viewing in edit mode. They switch only when viewed on my website.

    OK. I think you are having trouble because of the orientation of the camera that took the image. The camera may have been sideways (horizontal). And then when you open the picture to view it on your computer it looks correct because many viewing programs automatically flip it upright for viewing purposes, when in fact, the picture is not.

    I would edit the image orientation to the desired position, and then save it, and rename it before trying to upload it again.

    Let me know if this works.

    It is this post :( Your advice did not work still… It is correct in my admin page, where I can edit it. I tried re-formatting the photos and renaming the blog post, and it is still incorrect.

    I have fixed these 2 images for you.

    For these images, all you need to do it download them and then upload into your media library. For future images, all you need to do is download the image, correct the orientation, and resave the image before uploading.

    Let me know once you have saved these 2 images so that I can remove them from my media library. Thanks!

    Thank you for your help, but nothing is working. I have just removed the blog posts instead.

    @lomonahan21 ,

    I know you are super frustrated at this point! Thanks for hanging in there as we try to get to the bottom of this issue you are experiencing.

    Did you re-download the images that I fixed? And upload them to your blog? And they are still sideways?

    Please double check that you are running the most current version of your web browser, you can check here: http://browsehappy.com/ Please update if needed.

    For me, the images were sideways in Google Chrome, and upright in Safari. What browser are you using?
