Cannot stay logged into Dashboard
-
This has been going around and wanted to share my solution.
The isssue: Unable to log into dashboard or after logging, will be logged out after attempting to post, install plugin, or make any other general changes within site. Often, after I was logged out, I was unable to log back in. Several suggestions were made such as using a different browser or clearing my cookies/history/cache. Clearing my cookies worked, but was only temporary. After some time the problem resurfaced.
Other suggestions:
- Disabling or uninstalling all plugins
- Replacing with 2014 Theme
- Reinstalling WordPress
- Contact hosting provider
I tested all of these but only the last one worked successfully.
The solution: I reached out to my datacenter who reviewed the site’s database. After repairing the database the issue went away. So my recommendation would be to reach out to your hosting provider and ask for the database to be reviewed and repair. Hopefully my investigation will save you time and effort.
