   One of our sites loses the ability to navigate to pages other than the home page. In firefox, it says a "redirect loop"

   To resolve, we go to permalinks and click save. Then, the problem reoccurs. Any idea on what could be causing this or what a more permanent solution would be?

   What plugins are you using?

   @jackson I have quite a few. Has there been an issue with a particular plugin, possible all-in-one seo?

   Anything which adds rewrite rules could be to blame. When you save on the permalinks page you are flushing the rewrite rules. Sometime after that, something (plugin?) is adding rewrite rules which are causing the redirect loop.

   I would search my plugins folder for 'add_rewrite_tag' and 'flush_rules' and see what you've got.

   Jackson thanks for the tip. What is the best way to search the plugin folder?

   If you have SSH access to the server you can use grep via the command line.

   Otherwise, download the folder via FTP to your local drive, and then use
