 * There still seems to be an endless loop with sidebar login. I’ve had to resort
   to using the old “Meta” widget for now. Too bad, I loved this plugin.
 * I’m not a programmer so I’m not sure how to help other than by saying I have 
   cleared caches on my server and computer, but this error happens from several
   different computers using several different browsers so I don’t think it’s a 
   cache issue.
 * I type in a username then password and when I hit enter (or click login) I am
   returned to entering a username and password. Sidebar login simply will not pass
   the uname and pword to wordpress or else is just stuck in a loop somewhere.

 * Oh, and Yes I did resave settings and tried other suggestions in other related
   conversations, and this issue only began after I updated to 3.2.1 (wordpress 
   version). I did the updates for sidebar-login, but none of the updates worked.
   I have not changed my site at all except for the overall wordpress update so 
   I doubt very much that it is a css issue as suggested in one of the other conversations.

 * Since your problem is solved and Mine is not I Figured I post here for a fix 
   Hope you don’t mind.
    [@mike](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mike/) I love
   the Plugin Widget. I’m having the same problem If I log in and hit the enter 
   it loads the front page again and shows I’m not logged it. But if I go to another
   page on the site the dashboard, log out and my avatar shows.
 * Here is my setup in the config:
 *     ```
       Logged out heading - Login
       Logged in heading - Welcome %username%
       Login redirect - http://nli.arrl.org/
       Logout redirect - http://nli.arrl.org/
       Show Register Link - Checked
       Show Lost Password Link - Checked
       Show Logged in Avatar - Checked
       Logged in links - <a href="http://nli.arrl.org/wp-admin/">Dashboard</a>|true
       and
       <a href="http://nli.arrl.org/wp-admin/profile.php">Profile</a>
       ```
   
 * thanks

 * Hi Mike,
 *  I’ve been running into this error for a bit now (I’m using WordPress 3.2.1).
   It’s one reason by I’ve stayed with 2.2.15, but now it’s being impacted as well.
   I was able to confirm that it appears to happen ONLY on the home page, which 
   is really strange. On posts, etc. it appears to work fine.
 *  I would appreciate any help with this – thanks!
