 * Hi [@thermalstudios](https://wordpress.org/support/users/thermalstudios/),
 * This message is usually shown if the host doesn’t support native PHP sessions.
 * Can you try using this:

 * Let me know if that helps!

 * I tried this and got the “too many redirects error.” We use Pantheon for hosting.
   I played around with cache settings but nothing worked. We will move on and use
   the php redirect method instead. Thanks anyway for the support.
