Staging redirect to Live

    Hi, I’ve used the plugin to create a staging version of my site and the setup worked without issues.
    However, I’ve been unable to get to my new staging site. I’m redirected to the live site whenever I try to log or click on content. I saw in other threads that it could be due to a security plugin but I’m not using any…
    What steps could I follow to fix this?
    Thanks

    On a side note, my admin rights were removed once the plugin’s process was over. Luckily I had another backup admin account that allowed me to recover access but that can’t be normal?!

    @weaper check your htaccess if there are any redirects in it. Are you using any plugin which is preventing access to the default login page?

    Technically this can not be caused by wp staging. WP Staging is not changing any permissions. What do you mean by “removed”. Did the admin account changed to another user role, like editor or subscriber?

    I have this in my htaccess and I’m not using a plugin for the login page.

    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>

    As for my Admin account, it was changed to the most basic user role.
    I’m using Advanced Access Manager for custom roles but I deactivated it in the meantime.

    Same thing happens to me.
    When I login on the https://xxxyyyzzz.com/Testing/wp-login.php page it just logs me into the live site.

    My Admin rights were not compromised.

    It just won’t login to Testing

    any idea?
    to know if there is a reason this is happening or if I need to forget using this plugin.

    it doesn’t seems like I’m alone with this issue.
    are we just going to be ignored?
