Login Redirect issue

    I am getting a login redirect to

    https://www.despicablesmiths.com/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.despicablesmiths.com%2Fwp-admin%2F&reauth=1

    after providing the correct credentials.

    I am running I believe some version of 4.2.x and wish to login and make sure I am upto date on everything else.

    I am on GoDaddy Hosting with Php 5.2 running.

    My computers are all running Windows 8.1 x64 of various flavors and I have tried logging in after clearing cache and cookies on three computers running two different browsers each.

    I renamed the plugins directory and the theme directory.

    I have not changed the site address or URL recently however I have tried the following:

    I verified the address and URL in the DB, they were correct.

    I have added the site URL and address manually via wp-config.php

    I have tried the update site url and address in the theme function.php

    I have tried multiple logins and none work. I do get the shaking screen when using he wrong credentials. I do have the correct credentials only it keeps redirecting me to login again.

    I have attempted numerous times to update the password via the WordPress Password reset tool and when the e-mail comes in I get an Invalid key error and cannot complete the password reset.

    I have attempted to change the password manaully in my DB. Wrong password shakes the screen and my current password simply redirects back to the login screen.

    Any help would be appreciated!

  • I was having the same problem. I renamed the plugins folders inside wp-content. This disabled all plugins. I was then able to log in. Then I renamed the plugins folder back, upgraded and re-activate the plugins. The problem is fixed for me.

    As stated in the start of the post I had renamed the plugin’s folder along with the theme folder I was using. Still no dice.

    However, today I was able to login. I haven’t touched anything for days and now I can all of a sudden login.

    I am going to try re-enabling the plugins tonight and see what happens.

    i am having a similar issue, but i only get the loop in the customizer…it fixes it once i rename the plugin folder but then reverts back to the loop once changing the name back. i have been trying to fix it for over a week with no luck…

    @girlspeaksgeek,

    as per the Forum Welcome, please post your own topic. That way you stand a good chance of getting full attention to your specific issue. Despite any similarity in symptoms, your issue is likely to be completely different because of possible differences in physical servers, accounts, hosts, plugins, theme, configurations, etc. Thus one problem, on one setup is not indicative of the functionality and reliability of an application as a whole.

    girlspeaksgeek,

    Sounds like a specific plugin causing your issue. Have you tried renaming “Plugins” back to “Plugins” and going into the plugins folder and renaming one plugin folder at a time to find the one causing your issue?

    That’s one thing I haven’t tried…I will give it a shot tomorrow, thanks.
