# Login/Logout loop

 * Hello,
 * When a user logins with the link presented by the Simple Membership Custom Messages
   add-on (You need to login<– This is a hyperlink to view this content. Please 
   Login. Not a Member? Join Us), they get in stuck in a loop in which they revisit
   the previously permission-locked page and they are asked to sign in again over
   and over. However, if a user clicks on the login button on my homepage and login
   from there all is fine. What’s even more weird is that both the login hyperlink
   and the login button go to the exact same page.
 * I hope there is a solution, and I believe this issue has not arisen until the
   latest core plugin update. This is a large issue, because those who DO click 
   on the login hyperlink have to clear their cache before being able to login using
   the correct method and therefore being able to access restriction portions of
   the site.

 * Do you have a cache plugin installed in your site? If you do, have you excluded
   the login page from been cached?

 * Hey mbrsolution! Thanks for the quick reply. From my brief testing after making
   an exception in my caching plugin it seems to have resolved the login loop. I
   will open another ticket if the problem persists :). Thanks!

 * I believe my issue is related to http and https variation due to server settings.
