Redirect loop issue

[baldidiot]

At some point last year (I think) I bought mobilecasinos.co, mainly because I was setting up (which, tbf, I still am) mobileslots.co and I thought they made a nice pair.

Anyway, it was an existing site and I've not done anything with it since except move it to one of my servers but now it keeps throwing out redirect loop errors whenever you use a link to try and navigate to another page on the site. If you visit any page directly it's fine though.

Sounds like a plug in causing havoc, right? Well I disabled them all and the problem went away so I started bringing them back one by one to try and figure out which one it was, but everything worked fine.

A week later it happened again so I disabled all plugins and that seemed to fix things, except this time I didn't enable any of them again but the problem still came back a few days later.

Spoke to the host who are adamant it's an issue with a plug in...

Any suggestions on what could be the cause? I'm tempted to just strip it down and start again and we're going to redevelop it anyway at some point in the not too distant future, but would be quicker to use a less nuclear option if possible.

After inducing the loop by clicking on one of the "Review" links, I got another loop error message when clicking on mobilecasinos.co link in your post. Now the site won't load at all.

Check .htaccess and check plugins one by one slowly.

Check for custom coding in the theme, child theme or in Wordpress PHP files. Could be something there.

Yeah that's what happens for me. The redirect loop happens first and then the server locks your IP out as a security measure.

All plug ins disabled completely (folder renamed) so definitely not a plug in. Also nothing in the htaccess file that would be causing it (fairly basic stuff in it)...

I didn't think of looking at the theme itself though - you may be on to something there, thanks!

Are you using ssl or cloudflare? I had a redirect problem solved by a plugin called 'ssl redirect' or something.

No to both of those!

Did you check your error log, to see if anything is in there? I'm on Krystal Hosting and the last time this happened, they asked for an account, turned on the debugging mode (Wordpress) and found out the problem. In my cause though it was something simple, that I had put there.

So my guess is, if you wanna look for the problem yourself turn on debugging (r u on Wordpress?) and follow it.

Oh yeah, good point - thanks!
