Hi all!<\/p>\n

I’ve tried to login today to my WP new site and I didn’t make it. Yestarday it was working fine after the install. When I go loging in, WP redirect me with no message nor errors to the wp-login.php page. <\/p>\n

I even tried, as found in another posts here, to:
\n* Modify the wp-login.php file
\n* Fix the wp_options ‘siteurl’ and ‘home’ fields in DB
\n* Clear browser’s cache and cookies
\n* Etc…<\/p>\n

I just found out that nothing of that solved this issue, so I’m posting my solution here, in case it helps.<\/p>\n

It seems this problem mostly happens on Godady and 1&1 hosting services, or the ones that make an automatic install of wordpress using weird file systems.<\/p>\n

I’ve found out that this loop is caused by the server not being able to redirect or rewrite URIs, so here’s the fix.<\/p>\n

1. Go to the .htaccess file that the hosting service created by installing worpress. Use an FTP program or go through the file system on your hosting control panel<\/p>\n

2. Check if it have the Rewrite conditions that wordpress need. It should look like this:<\/p>\n

# BEGIN WordPress\n<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>\nRewriteEngine On\nRewriteBase \/\nRewriteRule ^index\\.php$ - [L]\nRewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f\nRewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d\nRewriteRule . \/index.php [L]\n<\/IfModule>\n# END WordPress<\/code><\/pre>\n
3. Add the RewriteOptions inherit<\/code> option at the begining of the instructions, before RewriteEngine On, and save the file:<\/p>\n
# BEGIN WordPress\n<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>\nRewriteOptions inherit\nRewriteEngine On\nRewriteBase \/\nRewriteRule ^index\\.php$ - [L]\nRewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f\nRewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d\nRewriteRule . \/index.php [L]\n<\/IfModule>\n# END WordPress<\/code><\/pre>\n
That’s it, that worked for me \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-6264872","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/6264872","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/6264872\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6264872"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
