recursive redirect problem (3 posts)

    This is my third WP site, but my first using a temporary URL (pending transfer of my domain name) and first using the SmallBiz theme. I've just installed it on Bluehost.com using the SimpleScripts package.

    The home page seems fine, but when I try to visit any page linked to from the home page, a URL of the form

    http://66.147.244.73/~sundogpu/?page_id=6

    redirects to

    http://66.147.244.73/~sundogpu/~sundogpu/~sundogpu/~sundogpu/~sundogpu/~sundogpu/~sundogpu/~sundogpu/~sundogpu/~sundogpu/~sundogpu/~sundogpu/~sundogpu/~sundogpu/~sundogpu/~sundogpu/~sundogpu/~sundogpu/~sundogpu/~sundogpu/contact/

    and of course fails.

    What's responsible for this behavior and how do I fix it? I haven't messed with any of the settings apart from options in the theme.

    Try changing your theme, or your Permalinks settings to another style and see if that helps. Double-check your Settings > General to make sure the home/site URLs there are setup properly

    With help from the support chat at Bluehost, the diagnosis was "It was set to the wrong permalink structure." It was somehow set to one of the non-default options, it's now set to the default option. Now it works.
