# [Plugin: W3 Total Cache] Redirect loop

 * Something has gone haywire on my blog [http://www.noordinaryhomestead.com](http://www.noordinaryhomestead.com)
 * I was installing w3 and after trying to set up CDN to my s3 server, all the posts
   started to go into a redirect loop and will not load. The pages and index work
   fine.
 * I deactivated and uninstalled all traces of w3, hoping that would bring the site
   back. It has not.
 * The htaccess file only has the following in it:
 *     ```
       # BEGIN WordPress
       <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
       RewriteEngine On
       RewriteBase /
       RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
       RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
       </IfModule>
   
       # END WordPress
       ```
   
 * Any help is extremely appreciated

 * Never mind. I managed to fix the issue.
 * Installed [Disable Canonical URL Redirects](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/disable-canonical-url-redirects/)
   plugin (which gave a header error when installing but still seemed to help). 
   This sent the posts to a 404 error.
 * From there, I changed the permalink structure to default and then back to my 
   custom structure.
 * All is good now.
