 * I’ve just downloaded your plugin and every time I try to activate the plugin 
   it causes a redirect loop on my website.
 * All admin pages get redirected here: [https://waterfire.org/wp-admin/admin.php?page=wp-dark-mode-settings](https://waterfire.org/wp-admin/admin.php?page=wp-dark-mode-settings)
   but the page never loads. All I get is a redirect error in Chrome telling me 
   to try and clear my cookies.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fplugin-creates-a-redirect-loop-on-activation%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * We apologize for any inconvenience caused. Upon installing and activating our
   plugin for the first time, it will be redirected to our plugin’s settings page,
   which should load promptly.
 * However, if you are experiencing difficulties with the settings page not loading,
   we are eager to thoroughly understand your issue. It would appreciate it if you
   could share the error message/log and a screenshot or short video of the issue
   you encountered while using our plugin.
 * ​Your cooperation is greatly appreciated.
