Clear each cache and reload the page to see if the problem was resolved.<\/h5><h3 id=\"check-wordpress-url-settings\" class=\"c-anchor\">6. Check WordPress URL Settings<\/h3><p>One of the most common causes of the redirect loop is an inconsistency with your WordPress address URL or site address URL. But let\u2019s take it one step at a time.<\/p><h4>What does it mean that there is an inconsistency in the website URL?<\/h4><p>When you buy a domain from your host, you choose the URL address of your website. Generally, hosts will give you the option of adding the <strong>www <\/strong>prefix to the domain name or not. So for instance, your domain may be <strong>http:\/\/domain.com<\/strong> or <strong>http:\/\/www.domain.com<\/strong>.<\/p><p>When you begin setting up your page on WordPress, you go to <strong>Settings &gt; General<\/strong>, and write the domain name in the two URL lines: <strong>WordPress Address (URL)<\/strong> and <strong>Site Address (URL)<\/strong>.<\/p><p>If you accidentally wrote the URL into WordPress <em>with <\/em>the <strong>www<\/strong> prefix, but specified the domain name <em>without<\/em> the <strong>www<\/strong> prefix when you got it from your host, this inconsistency between the URL\u2019s is causing the ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS error. The same is true of the opposite &#8211; if you originally purchased the domain name <em>with<\/em> <strong>www<\/strong> but wrote it <em>without<\/em> <strong>www<\/strong> into WordPress.<\/p><p>So what happens in such a case, is that a visitor comes to <strong>http:\/\/domain.com<\/strong>, but is then redirected by the server to <strong>http:\/\/www.domain.com<\/strong>, which will redirect them <em>back<\/em> to <strong>http:\/\/domain.com<\/strong>, since that\u2019s what you\u2019ve written into the WordPress URL line, and so the loop begins, resulting in the ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS error.<\/p><h4>If You Have Access to WordPress:<\/h4><p>To fix this from WordPress, go to <strong>Settings &gt; General<\/strong>, and change the WordPress and Site Address URLs.<\/p><p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-524\" src=\"https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/fix-address-url-wordpress1-1024x413.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"413\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/fix-address-url-wordpress1-1024x413.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/fix-address-url-wordpress1-300x121.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/fix-address-url-wordpress1-768x310.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/fix-address-url-wordpress1.jpg 1100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p><p class=\"image-description\">Check if the URL written into your WordPress General Settings is correct<\/p><p>If you think that you\u2019ve written the wrong domain, and it\u2019s missing a <strong>www<\/strong> or shouldn\u2019t have a <strong>www<\/strong>, just rewrite the correct address into the <strong>WordPress Address<\/strong> and <strong>Site Address <\/strong>URLs.<\/p><p><strong>Note: <\/strong>Make sure to add the slash at the end of your URL: <strong>http:\/\/domain.com\/<\/strong><\/p><h4>If You Don\u2019t Have Access to WordPress:<\/h4><p>You may not be able to access your WordPress dashboard if the loop has \u201cinfected\u201d your admin page.<\/p><p>To change the site URL without access to the admin dashboard:<\/p><ol><li>Connect to your website via <strong>FTP <\/strong>client.<\/li><\/ol><ol start=\"2\"><li>Find <strong>wp-config.php<\/strong> in the <strong>root directory.<\/strong><\/li><\/ol><ol start=\"3\"><li>Download the file and edit it into any text editor program, like <strong>Notepad.<\/strong><\/li><\/ol><ol start=\"4\"><li>Add the following two lines to the file, putting your domain name where we\u2019ve written \u201cdomain:\u201d<\/li><\/ol><p><strong>define(&#8216;WP_HOME&#8217;,&#8217;http:\/\/domain.com&#8217;);<\/strong><\/p><p><strong>define(&#8216;WP_SITEURL&#8217;,&#8217;http:\/\/domain.com&#8217;);<\/strong><\/p><ol start=\"5\"><li><strong>Save<\/strong> the file and close it.

There are easy ways to deactivate your plugins and fix the problem, regardless of whether you have access to your WordPress admin dashboard or not.<\/h5><h3 id=\"check-https-settings\" class=\"c-anchor\">8. Check HTTPS Settings<\/h3><p>Another common cause of the ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS error is due to misconfiguration of the HTTPS settings. This can happen if you recently switched to HTTPS from HTTP, and the moving process either wasn\u2019t completed properly, or something in the process wasn\u2019t done properly.<\/p><h4>Do You Have an SSL Certificate?<\/h4><p>If you migrated your site to HTTPS but you failed to install an SSL certificate, it\u2019s likely that this is causing the redirect problem. Your WordPress site is trying to load over HTTPS and ending up into a redirection loop.<\/p><p>To fix this, you basically need to install an SSL certificate. Once you\u2019ve installed a valid SSL certificate, your WordPress website will begin to work properly.<\/p><p>To be on the safe side though, you should also run an SSL server test, to see if all necessary SSL and TLS certificates are in order (including intermediate certificates). We recommend using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ssllabs.com\/ssltest\/index.html\">Qualys<\/a>, which offers free SSL server tests.<\/p><p>Simply enter your website domain in the bar next to <strong>Hostname<\/strong> and hit <strong>enter<\/strong>.<\/p><p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-530\" src=\"https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/run-ssl-server-test-free-qualys1-1024x391.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"391\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/run-ssl-server-test-free-qualys1-1024x391.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/run-ssl-server-test-free-qualys1-300x114.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/run-ssl-server-test-free-qualys1-768x293.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/run-ssl-server-test-free-qualys1.jpg 1054w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p><p class=\"image-description\">An SSL server test can show you if there are any issues with your website certificates<\/p><p>After a couple of minutes, Qualys will provide you with the results. It will specify certificate issues (if any), so that you can go about fixing them yourself, or asking your host for help.<\/p><h4>Are You Using an SSL Plugin?<\/h4><p>In order to quickly migrate your WordPress website to HTTPS, you used one of the free SSL WordPress plugins. These plugins work by automatically redirecting your website to an HTTPS version. While this may be a nice short term solution, it doesn\u2019t work well in the long run, and it may cause problems. (For a long term solution, we advise that you properly update your hard-coded HTTP links and get a proper, valid SSL certificate.)<\/p><p>The issue with free SSL plugins is that they often come with glitches and various compatibility issues. So get rid of your SSL plugin and migrate your website to HTTPS the harder &#8211; but right &#8211; way.<\/p><h4>Check the HTTPS Redirects on Your Server<\/h4><p>As we\u2019ve already mentioned, the redirect loop may be an issue stemming from your server. Before you contact your host, there\u2019s an easy way for you to check if the redirect code from HTTP to HTTPS was misconfigured, and fix it yourself.<\/p><h5>If Your Server Runs Nginx:<\/h5><p>To redirect HTTP traffic to HTTPS on a WordPress website running on Nginx:<\/p><ol><li>Find the <strong>Nginx config <\/strong>file.<\/li><\/ol><ol start=\"2\"><li>Add the following code to the file:<\/li><\/ol><p><strong>server { listen 80; server_name domain.com www.domain.com; return 301 https:\/\/domain.com$request_uri; }<\/strong><\/p><h5>If Your Server Runs Apache:<\/h5><p>To redirect HTTP to HTTPS on a WordPress website running on Apache:<\/p><ol><li>Find your <strong>.htaccess<\/strong> file.<\/li><\/ol><ol start=\"2\"><li>Add the following code to the file:<\/li><\/ol><p><strong>RewriteEngine On<\/strong><\/p><p><strong>RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off<\/strong><\/p><p><strong>RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https:\/\/%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]<\/strong><\/p><h4>Run a HTTPS Redirect Test<\/h4><p>For one reason or another, the ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS may be caused by too many HTTPS redirects.

If you have access to your WordPress admin dashboard, you can also leave a support ticket in the WordPress repository letting them know about your problem.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-02d9db7 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"02d9db7\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-e3db840\" data-id=\"e3db840\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-60a6169 article-end elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"60a6169\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-565995e elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"565995e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">View Related Articles<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-21bb133 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"21bb133\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-404e6d4 elementor-posts__hover-none elementor-grid-3 elementor-grid-tablet-2 elementor-grid-mobile-1 elementor-posts--thumbnail-top elementor-card-shadow-yes elementor-widget elementor-widget-posts\" data-id=\"404e6d4\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;cards_masonry&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;,&quot;cards_columns&quot;:&quot;3&quot;,&quot;cards_columns_tablet&quot;:&quot;2&quot;,&quot;cards_columns_mobile&quot;:&quot;1&quot;,&quot;cards_row_gap&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:35,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]}}\" data-widget_type=\"posts.cards\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-posts-container elementor-posts elementor-posts--skin-cards elementor-grid\">\n\t\t\t\t<article class=\"elementor-post elementor-grid-item post-2545 post type-post status-publish format-standard has-post-thumbnail hentry category-fixing-errors\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post__card\">\n\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-post__thumbnail__link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/why-are-my-emails-going-to-spam\/\" >\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post__thumbnail\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/spam-email-1024x1024.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-2546\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/spam-email-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/spam-email-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/spam-email-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/spam-email-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/spam-email-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/spam-email-2048x2048.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/div>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post__text\">\n\t\t\t\t<h6 class=\"elementor-post__title\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.domainnamesanity.com\/blog\/why-are-my-emails-going-to-spam\/\" >\n\t\t\t\tWhy Are My Emails Going to Spam?\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/h6>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-post__excerpt\">\n\t\t\t<p>There is no experience more frustrating than having your emails end up in the spam folder of your recipients rather than their inboxes.
