I had to delete it using an FTP client. Anyway, I learned about this through the following link.

I think in my case is a conflict between redirection file of my traffic trading script (in. php of proton) and the wordpress script. My .htaccess looks like this : * # BEGIN WordPress * # END WordPress * DirectoryIndex in.php index.php * note that in.php is a traffic manager’s script file which redirects visitors to index.php of wp. also note that if I use no .htaccess everything is fine, but I need to manage my traffic via in.php which set a cookie to my visitors. I tried to avoid usage of .htaccess including in.php in index.php with include() function. it works but not so good. is not so accurate in special at clicks reveals. * [makeityourown](https://wordpress.org/support/users/makeityourown/) * (@makeityourown) * [17 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/redirection-loop-error-in-27/#post-970071) * Hey xalink! You’re so welcome. * I’m pretty new at code, WordPress, website design, server issues, etc., etc. So, I’m not sure I can be of much help. However, I had a similar problem yesterday. I called the hosting company I use, and they temporarily deactivated the hta. access which produced a 404 page. They said that indicated the problem was in WordPress, but they don’t support the program (they “just do hosting”) and were u/a to offer any other support. * I’m a member of Brian Gardner’s RevolutionTwo forums ([http://www.revolutiontwo.com/](http://www.revolutiontwo.com/)) and it was one of the moderators there who pointed me quite quickly to my solution, which are the links I shared above. In particular, the following link was absolutely key to resolving my own problem: * [http://wp-member.com/interactive-faq/wordpress-errors/how-to-fix-wordpress-error-firefox-has-detected-that-the-server-is-redirecting-the-request-for-this-address-in-a-way-that-will-never-complete/](http://wp-member.com/interactive-faq/wordpress-errors/how-to-fix-wordpress-error-firefox-has-detected-that-the-server-is-redirecting-the-request-for-this-address-in-a-way-that-will-never-complete/) * I appreciate maybe you don’t have a plugin issue, but if you’re unsure, perhaps it might be helpful to delete all the plugins (after downloading them to your computer) and see if that helps at all. Again, in advance, I apologize, as I’m shooting in the dark. I’m quite green at all of this and my suggestions may not be helpful at all. * Just an FYI, if you ever end up using one of Brian Gardner’s themes, the support on his forums is just unbelievably amazing. Fast, courteous. People really care and it’s moderated exceptionally well. It has on numerous occasions, been just so helpful. And, the forums are not just for newbies like me, there are also seasoned WP theme builders on there as well. It’s a great community. * Anyway, Xalink, I sincerely wish you well on trying to resolve this problem. I so appreciate how exasperating it can be when your site doesn’t work (or worse, if its not in development but actually launched and very active). * I would be interested to know how you resolve this. Please keep me posted. * Take good care. * Thread Starter [xalink](https://wordpress.org/support/users/xalink/) * (@xalink) * [17 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/redirection-loop-error-in-27/#post-970143) * Thanks, Makeityourown ! * Your solution is very good for admin side login. I’ve experienced this issue too and renaming plugin directory was real useful. Thanks again for you support. * regards, Alan Viewing 4 replies - 1 through 4 (of 4 total) The topic ‘Redirection Loop Error in 2.7’ is closed to new replies. ## Tags * [loop](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/loop/) * [redirection loop](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/redirection-loop/) * In: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) * 4 replies * 2 participants * Last reply from: [xalink](https://wordpress.org/support/users/xalink/) * Last activity: [17 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/redirection-loop-error-in-27/#post-970143) * Status: not resolved ## Topics ### Topics with no replies ### Non-support topics ### Resolved topics ### Unresolved topics ### All topics
