Can’t log-in to WP 2.6 with Firefox

    I just upgraded my three blogs to version 2.6. It went very smoothly, but now I can’t log-in to the dashboard with Firefox (version 3.0) anymore. It does, however, work with the Internet Explorer. Is this a known problem?

  • Did your URL re-direct to wp-login.php one directory up? If so, I’m getting the same problem on FF 3.0. I’m beginning to think this is more a FF problem as this new 3.0 is still pretty buggy. Regardless, I reverted back to the previous version.

    Actually, I went back to the previous version and I’m still getting the same problem and now I can’t log in at all.

    NOT happy about this…

    Yes, if I direct my browser to /wp-admin/ it redirects to wp-login.php one directory up. But that’s also the case if I use Internet Explorer, so that can’t be the problem.

    I have the same problem (or at least a similar one) after downgrading back to 2.5.1 due to incompatible plugins… infinite redirect loop on trying to log in. Is there any fix?

    I’m getting the same exact problem. I tried deleting all of my plugins, deleting my .htaccess file but no go. I’m beginning to think this is going to be a big problem once the rest of the world wakes up.

    This version needs to be pulled.

    Ok, it seems to have something to do with cookies. I just deleted my cookies and it works now. It also works if I log off and try to log in again.

    Cookie purge did it for me, thanks. That will need to be fixed all the same.

    Didnt do the trick for me im afraid..

    – It does in IE7 but not Firefox 3.0

    So the problem must lie somewhere deeper. That’s annoying…

    Really annoying.. I’ll just wait with uploading the rest of the blogs then ??

    Just discovered something.. It doesnt show the dashboard, BUT it creates the session.. Because if i visit my blog i get the “Edit” link on my posts and if i click it it shows me the dashboard.

    Actually, now that you mention it, I did fint it weird that I could still comment on my blog with my admin account even though I “couldn’t” log-in. That’s weird.

    xcitedk you are a genius! That works for me but the ability to use the login panel is inoperable.

    Thanks ?? still not a good thing that it doesnt work ??

    Cookie purge did nothing for me. Can’t even login! ??

    What’s up. Why is this “upgrade” released before it has legs?
