I know this is probably not the best SO question ever because I don't have the relevant code (I don't know where it is and I can't find it). If anybody has seen this problem before or knows what is causing this I can't tell you how much I would appreciate it.
I have a storefront and the images in the storefront are showing up rotated 90 degrees to the left for no apparent reason.
The actual source files of the images are normal, if you look at the actual .jpg used in on the site they are upright.
How or why would they be showing up rotated? Is this some setting or a bug in WooCommerce?
Note
Yes, I've disabled every addon and used only WordPress and WooCommerce and the result is the same. Different themes yield the same result as well.
I discovered the problem in case anybody stumbles across this later down the road. The issue is with Apple's exif data and rotation information they store within each image. It is apparently not compatible with most computers and when you upload a picture from a mobile device from Apple (ipad, iphone etc.) you are likely to experience this phenomenon.
There is little than can be done about it, shy of uploading the images to a computer and manually fixing the orientation of all rotated images before using them.

My website uploads texts some fraction of a second before the images or graphic appears.
I use elementor pro as my website builder and hello theme. Please wish to know how to tackle this issue. Thanks for helping.
The simple answer is: your browser prioritizes smaller file sizes. Use properly optimized images and make sure to use the webm format for optimal user experience.
That's it. There's nothing more to it than that. Use smaller images. You can look through google's do's and don'ts here.
My WordPress website takes a lot of time to load pages, a problem that many of us face. I used GT metrix to check my WordPress page and then checked my website waterfall.
One thing I saw taking more than half time of my page is an image which is not uploaded in my website.
check this image of gt metrix waterfall:
I checked it, and I found this is an image which I have not used in my entire webpage. Also I could not find where is this image used.
Same thing happens in different pages that has different images to it.
I deleted one image from my media but now when I check the GT metrix waterfall I get a 404 error code which means its still trying to load that image and I cannot find it.
This is a theme which I had purchased and its not a popular theme like divi or ocean and hence could not contact the support.
How to check where a particular image is used in my webpage using
the media library (can I do that?)
How to find out and remove this image? Or at least is there a way where I can delete the image from the library and hence my webpage should not look for this image wasting its time instead of getting a 404 code
Your problem is quite common indeed, for your specific case i can suggest by starting to search the image name in both code + DB, it MUST be somewhere.
If you cannot find it inside your stuff there's only one answer left: there's some JS third party script that is loading that for you, but in this case i seriously dubt it would be in the same domain as your site.
Using the media library there's not much you can understand, if you are VERY lucky it will have a message like "attached to" but that thing cover like 10% of the cases, most of the time the image ARE used but are not attached to anything like a post, so the media library won't tell you anything
I've had this happen before a few times, too. Isn't it frustrating!? If you could provide a URL, I (and others, I'm sure) would be happy to take a look and try to figure out what's going on. :)
Hey guys I am needing some guidance on what this kind of image feature is called. I tried googling around but cant seem to find the correct name of the image feature. Its where there a bunch of small images surround a bigger image and when a smaller image is selected or hovered over then it will be shown on the bigger image place as seen here.
I am trying to add this feature into a clients website in wordpress but dont know the correct term to look for or if a plugin exists that allows me to do this sort of thing in wordpress.
Thank you all for your time!
I noticed that my images weren't crisp, and in the inspector found the piece of code that is making them blurry. But, now I don't know where to look within the actual code to remove this. It's not assigned in CSS. This is a portfolio page. I am using the Avada theme. Any ideas?

Looking at your theme's demo I see sharp images and the image code is different. So, the problem is not caused by your theme.
My guess is that you use Jetpack's Photon on your site. Try to deactivate the module and see if this changes anything.
However, image compression is a good thing, especially when using lots of images. Perhaps, if deactivating the Photon module solves the issue, compare the speed of your website with and without Photon. If it makes a notable difference, look in the Photon settings, to see what you could change to solve the issue.
Also, JPEG files (.jpg) may not be the best choice for your thumbnails, because you lose a lot of quality when the image isn't shown at its original size. If changing the settings doesn't help, you could try to use PNG files instead.
If Photon causes the issue and you don't find a way to solve it, while still compressing your images, I would suggest to contact Jetpack support. Alternatively you could try to use a different WordPress plugin for image compression.
I hope that helps. GL!
I have worked with images/Photoshop for a long time and have never had this problem. Basically, I tried uploading a few images to WordPress and they appear like this:
As you can see, the one highlighted in green turns out fine. However, the other two for some reason come out looking like they are in CMYK mode. The images are RGB and saved for web so I'm not sure what the problem might be. Can anyone help me make sense of this?
Here is the file for one of the images that come out wrong (which is strange because it comes out fine here, maybe it's a strictly WordPress issue?):
I think your comment about CMYK is a red herring. Looking at your screen shot, it appears you may have inadvertently selected the images in the window; your browser has highlighted them to show this, which gives them a slight blue overlay. Try simply reloading the page and opening that window again and see if the issue goes away.
Ive had strange things happen from images that appeared ok in windows photo viewer but when loaded into adobe fireworks the colours go wrong in a similar way.
Im assuming that the pictures display incorrectly on the 'front end' of Wordpress too, therefore i think its some weird .jpg format issue.
If you have just a few images maybe worth manually screen grab and edit screen grab if you have a viewer that works, then save out and try to re-upload to wordpress.
Or batch process the files into a different format, say bump and use a wordpress plugin like insanity that has the option to automatically convert to .jpg, to in effect clean or at least change the image format on upload.
I had the same issue- If you delete the image from wordpress, change the size of the image file to something closer to the size of the page width, that might work. It worked for me. I can't explain why that happens, but it does!
