# Connection Loop

 * Opening new thread as requested.
 * I’m having trouble connecting site kit and experiencing the Loop back to the 
   welcome page. I’m on Site Kit version 1.6, have reverted my .htaccess to the 
   bare minimum (WP index.php rules and PHP 7 handler), and tried adding the ModSecurity
   rules outlined in a different ticket.

 * [@usestrict](https://wordpress.org/support/users/usestrict/) thanks for your 
   topic!
 * Could you try [to reset](https://jmp.sh/8Zu34rk) and reinstall Site Kit from 
   an incognito browser, and attempt the setup process again?
 * If that doesn’t work, could you check for any [browser console errors](https://i.imgur.com/KyLAzgH.png)
   on the page with the error?

 * Hi Renee,
 * I don’t have that option to reset Site Kit anywhere. I had to deactivate/delete/
   reinstall Site Kit to get to the connection screen. This is what I see in the
   console.

 * [@usestrict](https://wordpress.org/support/users/usestrict/) Many thanks for 
   providing this information. We may need to investigate this further or create
   a GitHub issue. Before doing so can you inform me of the below:
    1. Can you confirm
   you’ve attempted setup using a Chrome incognito window? (so browser extensions
   interfere and caching is not applied) 2. Were you able to setup Site Kit previously
   on this site?

 * Hi James,

 * Yes, I have.
 * > Were you able to setup Site Kit previously on this site?
 * Not on this site, no. But I’ve had success setting it up on a different (older)
   site on a subdomain in the same shared hosting account.
 * Cheers,
    Vinny

 * [@usestrict](https://wordpress.org/support/users/usestrict/) thanks for this 
   helpful information. A few more troubleshooting steps since you have a site where
   Site Kit works at the same hosting environment:
 * 1) Are you using similar plugins on the the site where you were able to get through
   the set up process?
 * If possible, could you safely deactivate the plugins on this site and attempt
   the setup process?
 * 2) If that doesn’t work, the following has helped some users:
 * – From the WordPress Dashboard under _Settings > General_, change both the _WordPress
   Address_ and _Site Address_ from `https://` to `http://`. [Screenshot of the settings](https://i.imgur.com/MkFLF0E.png).
 * – You may be logged out of the admin, log in again and change those settings 
   back from `http://` to `https://`
 * – Attempt the setup process
 * Thanks for your feedback and patience and we work to get this resolved for you!

 * I’ve already tried with everything except elementor and elementor pro deactivated.
   I’ll try deactivating *everything*.

 * No dice. When I click ‘Proceed’ in the Welcome to Site Kit screen, I see a call
   to
 * `https://theguyinthekitchen.com/wp-admin/index.php?action=googlesitekit_proxy_setup&
   googlesitekit_code=sitekit-<<REDACTED>>&googlesitekit_verification_token=<<REDACTED
   >>&googlesitekit_verification_token_type=FILE&nonce=<<REDACTED>>`
 * which throws a 302 to
 * `https://sitekit.withgoogle.com/site-management/setup/?scope=openid%20https%3A%
   2F%2Fwww.googleapis.com%2Fauth%2Fuserinfo.profile%20https%3A%2F%2Fwww.googleapis.

   <<REDACTED>>&site_id=<<REDACTED>>.apps.sitekit.withgoogle.com&verify=true&verification_method
   =FILE`
 * which in turn throws another 302 to
 * `https://sitekit.withgoogle.com/site-management/setup/?code=sitekit-<<REDACTED
   >>&nonce=<<REDACTED>>&site_id=<<REDACTED>>.apps.sitekit.withgoogle.com&supports
   =credentials_retrieval+short_verification_token+file_verification`
 * which finally throws a 200 status and renders as the initial Welcome to Site 
   Kit screen.

 * Yes, that only happened when I gave up on the connection loop and tried loading
   the Site Kit dashboard. And I was getting _chunk 20_ more often than _chunk 0_.
