    WP 2.2

    I looked around for this issue, but nothing jumped out at me other than cache settings (which I can’t find/edit)

    When I click on “home”, or after logging in, it immediately takes me to the sitename/wp-admin page. The only way to get back to the home/main page is to click on “view site” from the admin page.

    Pressing “Home” (or just entering the sitename URL) will jump back to /wp-admin again.

    Is this a known issue?

    I can’t believe what I found. This is a problem circa 1991 when trailing slashes were required of websites. I think it’s an .htaccess issue, and why it jumped to wp-admin I have no idea. But a trailing slash will work correctly, but omit it and it jumps to admin.

    There ya go
