Redirection loop to homepage after installing bbPress 2.5.7 (admin lockout)

    Hi,

    Well, I am a bit frustrated 🙂 due to the bbPress 2.5.7 plugin. At first, nothing was going on, as long as I kept logged in after the install. However, after I wanted to login in my admin panel after the initial installation 3 hours later, a problem emerged.

    I found out that the bbPress 2.5.7 installation on my WP 4.1.2 (also 4.2.1) platform results in a redirection loop to my homepage, locking myself (admin) continously out. The funny thing is that I am actually logged in. I can see that at the front end.

    When I click on my backend tab in Chrome, which normally loads:

    http://www.wordpress.spiritueleverlichting.nl/wp-login.php

    I am redirected to the homepage, though I am actually logged in.

    I have tried the following:

    – deactivating all plugins, to no avail
    – switching themes (20-15), to no avail
    – asking support from Siteground, everything is set up correctly according to them

    Via FTP I change the bbPress folder name so I am able to access the backend. Once logged in, I change the folder name back to its original name.

    What is interesting is that when I log out while bbPress activited, the following URL emerges after the log out:

    http://www.wordpress.spiritueleverlichting.nl/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.wordpress.spiritueleverlichting.nl%2Fwp-admin%2Findex.php%3Fpage%3Dbbp-about%26loggedout%3Dtrue&reauth=1

    And in my error log, I found the following script:

    mod_hive matched URI – normal admin URL – with match 2, referer: – admin URL with redirection

    I am just wondering if somebody has something meaningful to say about the redirection loop to my homepage.

    Thank you very much in advance.

    Best regards,

    Hi,

    I took another look into it and it looks like the bbPress welcome page has smt to do with it? It is called ?page=bbp-about and looking at the second URL in my previous post, you can see it has been adopted in it.

    Perhaps is the welcome page causing the problem?

    Thanks.

    Hi Robkk,

    Indeed, I am still experiencing these problems 🙁 As said, I basically did everything I can do to see if the problem is caused by my theme or third party plugins, to no avail.

    Do you have a quick fix 🙂 🙂 🙂

    Thanks.

    sorry for the late reply and nope i don’t have a quick fix

    you might need to hire a developer to fix this for you.

    if you want to share what the issue was you can do so here, and see if its a bug that needs to be reported for anyone else in your situation.
