 * Hi,
 * suddenly I have problems accessing the plugins page in the dashboard.
 * Other pages work but whenever I click on the link to visit the plugin overview
   page it asks me for my ftp login data (like when I update plugins).
    But after
   I enter this information I get forwarded to the main page. And when I want to
   visit the plugins page the process starts again.
 * This all happend suddenly after an automatic update without me changing any files
   beforehand.

 * Hi [@stevepinkterton](https://wordpress.org/support/users/stevepinkterton/),
 * One way I can see to get rid of this is to try and put this information in wp-
   config itself.
 * Below is a link to an article that describes how to do so:
