This is really a one-of-a-kind plugin by all my searching, hoping someday someone comes along and refreshes this plugin. I doubt there’s much wrong but might need some tweaking to bring it up to date. * beats me, I’ve been hoping for a refresh or something similar to come along that’s actively developed. * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Login page just refreshes after logging in](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/login-page-just-refreshes-after-logging-in/) * Thread Starter [chad](https://wordpress.org/support/users/chadomaly/) * (@chadomaly) * [14 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/login-page-just-refreshes-after-logging-in/#post-2487144) * This was not resolved by me by anything other than just starting over. Total reinstall and restart of site.

It’s possible some remnants remain? Installed manually, not via an installer. * Marventus – index.php just takes me back to the root wp-admin directory. My wp- login isn’t in the admin directory, but the wp-root. It does bring up the login screen and I am able to login, but am forwarded to the wp-admin directory after submitting login info, which just shows the “index” screen without a file listing. * I was wondering if maybe I had some plugin to limit admin logins to a certain IP range (I recently changed ISP’s), but didn’t notice anything in the plugin directory that might have caused it. To check, I just renamed the plugins directory and tried to access wp-admin, same result. * Plugins I’m using: addthis, all-in-one-seo-pack, artpal, backupwordpress (backups too new to fix issue), broken-link-checker, category-posts, contact-form-7, dropbox- cdn, dropbox-sync, feed-stats-plugin-for-wordpress, feedburner-plugin, google- analytics-dashboard, google-analytics-for-wordpress, google-sitemap-generator, imageshack-offloader, jetpack, jf3-maintenance-mode, ibak-google-checkout, login- logo, page-links-to, redirection, regenerate-thumbnails, simple-google-checkout- shopping-cart, social-media-widget, statpress-visitors, superslider-media-pop, tumblrize, ultimate-security-checker, ultimate-tag-cloud-widget, use-google-libraries, w3-total-cache, watermark-reloaded, wordsocial, wp-minify, wp-plugin-security- check, wp-security-scan * HOWEVER, since I renamed the plugins directory, I’d assume that had the same effect as disabling them all, and the problem persisted…. so, not a plugin issue? * I don’t know what should be in a “stock” .htaccess in the wp-admin directory, but I blanked the htaccess in the wp-root and the wp-admin and there was no resolution of the issue. * The next thing I’ll try is a replacement of wp-admin with a stock one. That’ll have to wait until I have some time to sit down for a few minutes to tinker with the likely fallout. Any common snafus that happen when doing that? * Forum: [Fixing WordPress](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting/) In reply to: [Suddenly getting "Index of /wp-admin" when trying to get to admin dashboard](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/suddenly-getting-index-of-wp-admin-when-trying-to-get-to-admin-dashboard/) * Thread Starter [chad](https://wordpress.org/support/users/chadomaly/) * (@chadomaly) * [14 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/suddenly-getting-index-of-wp-admin-when-trying-to-get-to-admin-dashboard/#post-2373193) * There are still a lot of files in the wp-admin directory, but I’m not sure how to tell if anything has disappeared. I supposed it’s possible that maybe a plugin changed something. I use a caching program (W3), but I’m not sure how or if that could’ve gone haywire in the time it’s been running since I last logged in. * I’m not sure how to get a file listing I can post here, or if that would even help. I can log into the cpanel file manager GUI and there are a bunch of files in the wp_admin, but I don’t have a text prompt shell access to do any commands that might spit it out to a file I could put on here. I’ll attach the .htaccess that is in the wp-admin directory to the bottom of this post, if there’s anything else that might help you guys figure out what happened, please let me know. I’m sure it’s something relatively simple, I just figure someone will come up with a reason before I have to spend half a night plunking around on google to try to figure it out myself. * D Chad, my WP install is up to date, probably an outdated plugin or two. I installed via the cpanel file manager and the WP install script, not fantastico or anything. Could you give me a bit more detail in how I would go about replacing the wp- admin files, and how that might affect my install… other than maybe making it work again 😉 * .htaccess of wp-admin: * ``` text/x-generic .htaccess ASCII text DirectoryIndex index.html index.php index.htm index.cgi # FILTER REQUEST METHODS RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} ^(HEAD|TRACE|DELETE|TRACK) [NC] RewriteRule ^(.*)$ - [F,L] # QUERY STRING EXPLOITS RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} \.\.\/ [NC,OR] RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} boot\.ini [NC,OR] RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} tag\= [NC,OR] RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ftp\: [NC,OR] RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} http\: [NC,OR] RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} https\: [NC,OR] RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} (\<|%3C).*script.*(\>|%3E) [NC,OR] RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} (\<|%3C).*iframe.*(\>|%3E) [NC,OR] RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} mosConfig_[a-zA-Z_]{1,21}(=|%3D) [NC,OR] RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} base64_encode.*\(.*\) [NC,OR] RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} GLOBALS(=|\[|\%[0-9A-Z]{0,2}) [OR] RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} _REQUEST(=|\[|\%[0-9A-Z]{0,2}) [OR] RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^(.*)cPath=http://(.*)$ [NC,OR] RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^(.*)/self/(.*)$ [NC,OR] RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^.*(\[|\]|\(|\)|<|>).* [NC,OR] RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^.*(globals|encode|localhost|loopback).* [NC,OR] RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^.*(execute|exec|sp_executesql|request|select|insert|union|declare|drop|delete|create|alter|update|order|char|set|cast|convert|meta|script|truncate).* [NC] RewriteRule ^(.*)$ - [F,L] ``` Viewing 6 replies - 1 through 6 (of 6 total)
