The error \u201cERROR TOO MANY REDIRECTS<\/em><\/strong>\u201d occurs on the WordPress platform. It might look like a simple problem that has one issue, and you can solve it in a few clicks. Unfortunately, it is one problem that occurred for several reasons, and there are different solutions to get rid of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So let\u2019s see how to fix the Error_Too_Many_Redirects<\/strong> and get rid of the error in an easy step-by-step tutorial<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Solution for Error Too Many Redirects<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There are #3 solutions for errors too many redirects <\/strong>are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Solution #1: Disable All Plugins<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Usually, plugins are designed to get a difficult task done in a few clicks. However, WordPress users add multiple plugins on the platform, and it interferes with one another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 1<\/strong>: Log in to your WordPress account<\/strong>, and click on \u201cPlugins > Installed Plugins<\/em><\/strong>.\u201c<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"error<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 2<\/strong>: Mark all plugins, and select \u201cDeactivate<\/strong>\u201d from the drop-down menu, and then click on \u201cApply<\/em><\/strong>\u201d to finish the changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"error<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Make sure to clear the cache of the browser<\/a>, and then test the site, if the problem persists. If the issue has not been resolved yet, then move on to the next solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Solution #2: Confirm the Address<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Those who are new to WordPress sometimes do not understand the difference between a site address and a WordPress address, so they end up having different URLs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"error<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The differences can cause major issues with the page loading because the browser is expecting the site address and then it gets the WordPress address.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The error \u201cERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS\u201d was caused due to the wrong URL.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can check the URL by going to WordPress dashboard > Settings > General<\/strong> and then checking Site Address & WordPress Address<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Solution #3: Delete .htaccess<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The site runs on a path, and it is created by the .htaccess<\/strong> file<\/strong> and the redirection<\/a> process main culprit could be the wrong configuration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In many cases, we have errors due to the wrong configuration<\/strong>, and you can solve them by correcting them<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 1<\/strong>: Log in to your cPanel account and type \u201cfile manager.<\/em><\/strong>\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"error<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 2<\/strong>: Click on the \u201cfile manager<\/em><\/strong>\u201d and click \u201cpublic_html<\/em><\/strong>\u201d to open it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"error<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 3<\/strong>: If you could not find the .htaccess file<\/strong>, it means the file is hidden. Click on \u201csettings<\/em><\/strong>\u201d located at the top-right corner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"error<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 4<\/strong>: A confirmation pop-up shows up<\/strong>, and you have to click on \u201cshow hidden files (dotfiles)<\/em><\/strong>\u201d and click on save.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"error<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 5<\/strong>: Now, I can see the .htaccess file<\/strong> and right-mouse click to view more options<\/strong>, and you have to click on \u201drename<\/strong>\u201d to disable it. I have also pointed out that you should remember this step.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"error<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 6<\/strong>: Now, add \u201c.old<\/strong>\u201d to the file name because we will disable it, and then check if the problem resolves or not<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"error<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 7<\/strong>: In case the solution worked out for you, go back and remove the \u201c.old\u201d<\/em> to restore it<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Error<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Now,\u00a0add the given codes at the bottom of the .htaccess file<\/strong>, and you can edit it by following the step I asked you to remember earlier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have shared the code above, so copy and paste it to resolve the issue. In case <\/strong>the problem persists, then you can contact the YouStable support team for information.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
