HELP!!! Too many redirects/redirect loop error!!

so recently i started experimenting with twitter/fb/pinterest using 301 redirects and now i cant get into "/wp-login" or "/wp-admin" but the page will load if it is "wp/login.php"

let me explain what i was doing.

1. get affiliate sales link through cb and cpa
2. setup redirect through a base domain using the hosting (not using plugins). for the purpose of the discussion lets say "everything.com"
3. post the "everything.com/whatever" link on social sites that would redirect to my affiliate offer


i had about 7 redirects setup on the same domain and probably sent a total of 300 visits/day for about 3 days.

I can access the actual site as a whole and browse it and eveything like that, but i cant access the WP dashboard whatsoever.

Any help you can provide would be immensely appreciated, if you need further explanation dont hesitate to ask. I have no clue what to do

How did you set these 301's up? .htaccess? If so you need to blank the file(using FTP or SSH, not WP itself) and start adding the redirects one by one until you find the buggar that's doing the loop.

I actually just set them up through my hosting, HostMonster. Do you think they would be able to do anything about it? I already went in and removed all the redirects through them and it didnt fix it.

Go to PHP my admin then to your database under option table write your domain name correctly with www or without

i dont understand how that would be the problem if i didnt change anything in there?

Maybe from your host the setting is http://www. and in your installation it is http://

I have it set to redirect regardless of www.everything.com, http://www.everything.com or just everything.com.

thats why im so confused
thanks so much for troubleshooting with me though

Do you want me to have a look? if yes shooot me a pm with your skype or the login details

I think im gonna give hostmonster a call and see if they can do anything about, if not ill hit you up:beerchug:

Silly question but have you cleared your browser history + cache? Maybe it's redirecting on its own. Clear history and cache and restart your browser, then revisit.

Also, add a query string to the URL

Say example.com/ is redirecting, try example.com/?yadda=yadda
