# Login Loop?

 * I got a notification from a user that after logging in, the page they are redirected
   to says not logged in, please log in.
    If she goes back to the log in page, she’s
   logged in, but can’t access the page she was redirected to that is protected.
   I disabled all the plugins except for Simple membership itself and the simple
   membership shortcode plugin. The first time I recreated the problem was when 
   I activated the brute force login limiter on Jetpack. So I deactivated Jetpack.
   The next plugin that duplicated the problem was the simple membership redirection
   plugin.
 * So now both Jetpack and the redirection plugin are deactivated, and everything
   seems to work. But it’s nicer to have the redirection active. Not sure what’s
   wrong.

 * Hi, just for testing purposes. Can you test one of WordPress default themes like
   Twenty Nineteen? Let me know what happens.
 * Thank you

 * Thank you for responding. This is a site with a paywall and I don’t want potentially
   run into problems switching the theme and switching back. I can try downloading
   a copy and setting up a staging site where I can change the theme, reactivate
   the plugins, and see if the problem is duplicated.
 * Jetpack had an update on the 12th. Wondering if that has something to do with
   the problem? I was only using the brute force protection offered, and have installed
   Login Attempts Limiter Reloaded instead, with no issues so far.
 * I’ll try the staging site later (2 am here) and get back to you. Thanks!

 * Update: I used the wp migration tool to pull down a copy of the site in question,
   and used the same plugin to install it on a fresh wordpress install on a subdomain.
   Before changing the theme, I tried to duplicate the error by reactivating jetpack
   and the redirection plugin. Site worked fine. So I haven’t tried using a new 
   theme because the duplicate site works.
 * If you have a suggestion, I’d be grateful.

      Reason: Wrong about second site

 * Okay, this might be of importance. Duplicate site is running as http and not 
   https. I use the really simple ssl plugin, but it seems a recommendation a couple
   of months ago is to use the Easy https plug in. Should I remove that before trying
   the other one? It seems they might conflict as they are similar in scope of function.

      Reason: added really simple ssl plugin information

 * Hi,

 * That is strange that it works in the staging site and not the live site. Check
   your permalink structure?

 * You should only use one. It doesn’t matter which one you use as long as it does
   the job.

 * So, I had my hosting company install a new ssl certificate on the site in question.
   I then deactivated really simple ssl and activated the easy https plugin instead.
   Site didn’t break, so that was nice after the warnings, lol.
 * Reactivated the after login redirection plugin and tested the login from the 
   front side of the website. It worked! And I learned an important lesson about
   reading the forums. This issue was covered before and I didn’t use the advice
   about the Easy Https plugin because I thought it should have worked the same 
   as the really simple ssl plugin, but that is not the case.
    Reactivated Jetpack,
   login redirection still works as it should. Looks like all is well again!
 * Thank you for taking the time to address my questions and concerns. 🙂
