Rotate multiple images at once directly from the WordPress Media Library.

== Description ==

**Spinex Bulk Image Rotator** adds Rotate CW and Rotate CCW buttons directly into the Media Library bulk-select toolbar. Select any number of images and rotate them all at once — no page reloads, no third-party services.

= Features =

* Rotate images 90° clockwise or counter-clockwise
* Works with WordPress native bulk select — no custom UI to learn
* Handles large selections safely by batching requests (20 images per request)
* Overwrites originals and automatically regenerates all registered thumbnail sizes
* Deselects and refreshes thumbnails in the grid immediately after rotation
* Buttons are greyed out until at least one image is selected
* No settings page, no database entries, no bloat
* Translation-ready

= How to use =

1. Go to **Media → Library** and make sure you are in Grid view
2. Click **Bulk Select**
3. Select the images you want to rotate
4. Click **Rotate CW** or **Rotate CCW** in the toolbar
5. Done — thumbnails refresh automatically

= Requirements =

* WordPress 5.5 or higher
* PHP 7.4 or higher
* GD or Imagick PHP extension (standard on all major hosts)

== Installation ==

1. Upload the `spinex-bulk-image-rotator` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`
2. Activate the plugin through **Plugins → Installed Plugins**
3. Go to **Media → Library**, enter bulk select mode, and rotate away

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= Does it overwrite my original images? =

Yes. The plugin rotates and saves over the original file, then regenerates all thumbnails. Make a backup if the originals are critical.

= What happens if I select non-image files? =

They are silently skipped. Only image/* MIME types are processed.

= What if rotation fails on some images? =

The toolbar shows a count of how many succeeded and how many failed. Failed images are left untouched.

= Does it work with very large selections? =

Yes. Images are sent to the server in batches of 20 to avoid PHP timeouts. You can select hundreds of images and the plugin processes them sequentially.

== Screenshots ==

1. Rotate CW and Rotate CCW buttons appear greyed out when no images are selected
2. Once bulk select is active and at least one image is selected, both buttons become active
