[resolved] Redirect Loop problem (8 posts)

    Hi,

    I've seen other redirecting problems but I didn't see any resolutions to them.

    I had just bought and switched my wordpress.com domain to my bought domain http://www.fashiondualite.com/. It worked like a charm at first, but now I'm getting a Redirecting Loop error and I can't log into my site account. I can only log into the wordpress.com account but I can't do anything from there.

    Tried to reupload a new index.php file, but still doesn't work.

    Any clue what the bug is??

    Please help!

    That's my wordpress.com site, not the domain that I bought which I placed under wordpress.org.

    I can't log into the .org site

    It just redirects me to the login page, and if I try to retrieve a password, it doesn't send it to me.

    All I did was change the permalinks (which could be the cause of the problem, but I can't switch back since I can't log in) and redirect the site to my bought domain.

    try to rename your .htaccess file. Also, can you provide the code in your .htaccess file??

    And where do I find the .htaccess file? I'm looking all over my file manager in blue host and I can't see it.

    is it cpanel? it should be inside public_html directory. Sometimes it is hidden, so you can ask your host for this issue.

    It's not there, so I guess I'll have to ask them to unhide it for me.

    Thanks a bunch.

    Found the solution.

    I simply had to reswitch my hosted servers back to BlueHost, and my site is back.

    Wow, and all I wanted was to redirect my wordpress.com's traffic to the current one...oh well.
