Cómo corregir el problema de demasiadas redirecciones en WordPress

   When plugins are the issue (a sort of site appears when the plugins folder in de-activated), chances are you’ve used an ‘under constructions’ plugin when building the site on a temp location. de-activate this plugin first!

   Hi,
   I’ve followed to the letter this tutorial to move my site from my localhost to my production site. However I’m having issues with accessing the site.
   I’m all good to access the WP-admin dashboard however I cannot get to the website, for some reason it keeps redirecting me to my localhost.
   This is driving me nuts:
   – I’ve updated the wp_ptions both home and siteURL
   – I’ve placed the .htaccess as per the comment
   – I’ve searched my database and could not find anywhere else except on cross-page links localhost
   I really don’t know how this redirect to my localhost is taking place.
   Any hint?

   copy plugin folder from wp-content and place it somewhere else then just delete plugin folder from wp-content and reload your wp-admin.php url now it ask for wp login…enjoy but all plugins will deactive and copy plugin folder from where you saved it and paste inside wp-content…..
   now its normal ……

   thanks me later :)))

   I’ve been trying to solve this issue. My site works fine and I’ve removed the plugins directory, but I can’t seem to get to my wp-admin page. Anything beyond wp-admin results in 404 and if I go to /wp-admin, it results in ‘too many redirects’.

   Can’t seem to figure it out!!!!! Please help!!

     First try the section ‘Change Site URL Without Access to Admin Area’ in the article above. Try adding www to your site URL. If it already has it, then try removing it. If this does not solve your problem, then try these steps.

     Connect to your website using FTP.

     In your site’s root folder, locate the .htaccess file and download it to your computer as backup.

     Edit the FTP file on your webserver and paste this code inside it.

     # BEGIN WordPress
     <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
     RewriteEngine On
     RewriteBase /
     RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
     RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
     RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
     RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
     </IfModule>
     # END WordPress

       OK so get this. I did all of the possible things from this site and others and absolutely none of it worked. Then I went to do a restore to a previous backup and it got worse. HTTP500s all around.

       After some troubleshooting, it turned out somehow Namecheap’s file permissions got mucked around with (not by me) and once that was fixed by the tech, everything came back up just fine.

       I guess you can’t really rule out SERVER ISSUES even if it isn’t being controlled by you.

   Is it possible that having the url setting you mentioned in your first solution could cause the cycle of redirects if they are set to https but a plugin is forcing all pages but one to http?

   Hi! Ijust upgraded WP on one of my sites to 4.4.1. After doing so, site loads fine, but when trying out wp-admin, I keep getting a:
   The page isn’t redirecting properly error.
   I tried to delete .htaccess but I don’t see it regenerated. I also tried to rename plugins folder with no luck.
   Permissions seem to be fine, and it is just wp-admin failing.

   Any clues you can share with me?

         You can start troubleshooting by first deactivating all your WordPress plugins.

    Just created a new page on my blog and am getting a redirect loop on it. Just on the one page. All of the other pages seem to work.

    Before it happened I click the buy button and since that it went to redirect. Baffled… but hate the idea of reloading all of the plugins. Hoping there is a shorter solution.

      Deactivate all WordPress plugins, and then login to your website. Try installing and activating fresh copy of each plugin you had until you find the one that caused the error.

    hi thanks for nice post, still i am wonder how to solve my website loop error, i am facing problem on particular feed page that is showing error, pls reply to solve my problem

    Responder

    • WPBeginner Support

      It seems your feed is redirecting to an unauthorized URL. This could mean that your site is infected. Before you do anything else, first deactivate all your WordPress plugins and switch to a default WordPress theme like twenty sixteen. If this resolves your problem then it was an issue with one of your plugins or your WordPress theme. If this does not help, then try steps in our step by step guide fixing hacked WordPress site.

    Thank you for this post. I have been trying to deal with my redirect problem for days. I have tried everything on this site, yet the problem persists. I even did a fresh install. And, while that helped googlebot being able to crawl my site and helped my sitemap not being redirected, I still have a redirect issue when I use the seobook header check tool.

    I even changed the permission to 755 on only the directories of wp_admin. The only thing I haven’t done is delete .htaccess because if something goes wrong there, then I would have to rebuild the site. And, I’ve been at this too long to rebuild it again to have the same problem.

    Is it a hosting issue? I’m with godaddy and the site is carauctiongurus.com . I definitely learned a lot about WordPress having this redirect issue. Can you help?

    Responder

    • WPBeginner Support

      You can download your .htaccess file to your computer and then delete it from server. If anything goes wrong you can upload the original .htaccess back to the server.

    First I want to thank you for your article.

    Some of this worked, all of it help me troubleshoot.
    If you have Woo-commerce installed into your blog for a store add-on there are additional settings added to your Permalink Settings; Common Settings and Product permalink base.

    The Common Settings are for the articles and must be set to any setting other than default or Custom Structure. This will stop the error.
    You helped me, I hope this helps another.

    Thank you for the tip. It worked! I messed up the WP settings when I changed the site address URL and WP address URL from teasan.com.au to teasan.com.au/organic-matcha ….. the website then went to a redirect loop! Couldnt even log in.

    Downloaded FileZilla and added

    define(‘WP_HOME’,’http://example.com’);
    define(‘WP_SITEURL’,’http://example.com’);

    as suggested and it worked!! Thank you so much.

    However, now the URLs on the settings are pretty much locked. But its ok, I dont think I will ever change it again!

    Great post. I also had the issue of the redirects and here is one solution that I came across just recently. I had deactivated the plugins and had the url in the proper locations. What happened is that I transferred the site over to another host. The issue that I came across was the php.ini file that was causing the issue. Some servers will let you put in a custom .ini file while others do not. I deleted the .ini file since it was not needed in the new server since I set the php files to be all the same for multiple accounts. Once I did that, I was able to log in the site as usual.

    • sandeep

      David,

      Could you please elaborate on how you resolved the issue. I am facing the same probelm, we moved the site to a new host and new domain name. The urls are proper and there are no plugins. we have multiple sites hosted. If multisite is set to false, login page works fine,but cant see any sites in the dashboard. If multisite is set to true, getting too many redirects issue. The url is being pointed to new-domain-name/wp-signup.php?new=new-domain-name

      if I could fix this too many redirects issue, I should be able to view my sites in dashboard (also I have do search/replace in wordpress database (interconnectit script)

      “Some servers will let you put in a custom .ini file while others do not. I deleted the .ini file since it was not needed in the new server since I set the php files to be all the same for multiple accounts.”

      Did you delete the php.ini file in /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini ?

      Looking for urgent help. Thanks in advance !!

    No they do not. People usually assume that applying permissions recursively on directories should also affect files inside directory. This is not correct. You can have different permissions for directories and different permissions for files inside the directory.

41. robrecord

    Well, I am totally flummoxed. I have one site in a multisite install that only does this SOMETIMES. For example, Earlier today the site was fine and I was loading it up on multiple browsers and multiple machines. I have not touched the config or anything on the backend, and now it’s ‘too many redirects’. This has been going on for weeks. Really need this to be fixed!

    I’ve verified permissions. I’ve verified & reset permalinks settings. I’ve removed cookies. I’ve verified & reverified domain mapping settings. Checked home & site URLs. Checked SEO settings. Reset nginx page cache and WC3 object cache. Disabled browser cache. Disabled all WP plugins.

    It’s only saying ‘too many redirects’ for the home page; I can log in to admin and view other pages.

    I appreciate all help so far… Does anyone have any further suggestions please?

      Hi, did you ever find a solution to your issue with the occasional too many redirects issue? I’m experiencing the same problem – it occurs once or twice a day for anonymous users, but anyone signed in is fine, which makes me assume it’s a cache problem, but so far nothing has fixed the issue…

    just fyi, anyone trying to solve this issue where other conventional suggestions do not work…

    make sure your owner/group permissions are correct.

    ie, if you manually uploaded wp-admin & wp-includes via your root login, you will need to change folder/file ownership and group to whichever account your wordpress installation is on.

    to change ownership/group from shell:

    chown -R ownername:groupname foldername

    ie:

    chown -R wpaccount:wpaccount wp-admin
    chown -R wpaccount:wpaccount wp-includes

    this applies to cPanel, Linux, Unix installations etc.

    Responder

43. WPBeginner Staff

    First create a backup of your website download all your files and backup your database using phpMyAdmin.

    After that delete your .htaccess file

    Open wp-config.php and add these two lines

    define(‘WP_HOME’,’http://example.com’);
    define(‘WP_SITEURL’,’http://example.com’);

    Replace example.com with your own domain name.

    If you are not seeing error too many redirects issue but seeing white screen. Then try these steps:

    https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-fix-the-wordpress-white-screen-of-death/

    If this doesn’t help then select your wp-admin folder in FTP client and change file permission to 755. Make sure you check to apply the permissions recursively and apply it to all the directories inside wp-admin. Do not set it for all files resursively, just the directories.

    Thanks for the information. Based upon what you said, I thought I may have a conflict with an SEO plug-in that I recently installed, but my redirect problem was with one new post. In the settings for the plug-in, I saw that “create autogenerated description” was checked. Since I am writing my own descriptions, I unchecked that (thinking that it may create a conflict). But that didn’t change anything.

    Elsewhere, I read that the redirect error could be caused by changing the post title when the permalink is set to post title. Since I have a new assistant helping me with the blog, I thought maybe this had happened.

    Before unplugging all of the plug-ins, I created a new post, pasted the text from the post with the redirect error, deleted error-prone post, and published the new post. Now it works!

    Responder

49. Jason George

    Thanks for your information. I have also read that this can be caused by a file permissions issue on wordpress folders. The article mentioned verifying that the permissions are set to 644 on all of your wp-admin folders and files. Hope this helps someone out.

    I’m glad you’re doing this and you’re doing a great job. I also feel great to be following you because I have 2 big problems with WordPress so I am watching for these. One is on getting a lot of spams and I have Akismet on. Perhaps the problem is that in the comment box, WordPress puts down by default my user name and the clickable word logout instead of getting prospective commenters to login.
