Redirection to page 127.0.0.1 when working with the website

Hi @baharbin

If you are accessing wp-admin and being redirected or whole site including front end being redirected to 127.0.0.1 ?

If whole site is being redirected then your IP is permanently blocked.

Please try access with other internet connection so your IP gets changed and allowed access.

If not possible {db_prefix}aiowps_permanent_block table blocked_ip matching to the https://whatismyipaddress.com/ remove it please cross check block reason if possible before remove. ( it might be comment spam )

If the wp-admin only being redirected cookie based brute force if enabled

127.0.0.1 wp-admin being redirected means you have enabled cookie based brute force.

you should try access with secret word so {site_url}?{secret_word}=1 It will save cookie in your browser for 24 hrs the again after 24 hrs it will start redirect to 127.0.0.1 and you can access with {site_url}?{secret_word}=1 only.

If you have enabled and forgot the {secret_word} define AIOS_DISABLE_COOKIE_BRUTE_FORCE_PREVENTION true in wp-config.php and try access with wp-login.php ( or renamed login page) it will disable the cookie based brute force

define('AIOS_DISABLE_COOKIE_BRUTE_FORCE_PREVENTION', true);

Once you logged in please go to WP Security > Brute force > Cookie based brute force prevention.
there check secret_word and remove the defined constant.

Thank you for your response.

The entire site was accessible, but the WordPress dashboard had encountered this issue. Following your guidance, the problem was resolved.

Would re-enabling the cookie setting potentially cause this issue to reoccur?

Hi @baharbin

WP Security > Brute force > Cookie based brute force prevention.
there check secret_word

If you use correct secret_word url {site_url}?{secret_word}=1 It should not be a problem

Please cross check are you using correct sercret_word ?

It will save cookie in your browser for 24 hrs and will allow access of wp-admin, Again after 24 hrs it will start redirect to 127.0.0.1 and you can access with {site_url}?{secret_word}=1 only after that.

Regards
