Webpage Redirect Loop with Softaculous

  • Hi!

    I’ve uploaded wordpress using softaculous on bytehost and keep getting “This webpage has a redirect loop” even after I cleared the cookies etc as it suggests. The webpage is gingercatgraphics.com. Because it’s a free hosting site I can’t upload wordpress manually as there are restrictions on the mysql but if anyone has any suggestions how to fix I’d be eternally grateful for your expertise!

    Cheers!

  • You should first check out your .htaccess file inside the root of your server. If you’ve created a redirect inside your .htaccess file to redirect the non-www domain , you may be causing the redirect loop error.

    Follow these steps and check if it works for you…

    Backup your .htaccess file on your hard drive
    Delete the .htaccess file from the root of your server
    Go to your blog’s admin panel and log-in
    On the left sidebar, go to Settings –> General and changes your WordPress Address and Blog Address to include www (so it should be https://www.domainname.com instead of https://domainname.com).
    Save Settings
    Take your .htaccess backup and reupload it to the root of your server
