Abe, can we see your .htaccess file, please? Enclose it in ie,

line 1
line 2
line3

2nd, please open your wp-config.php file & change wp_debug to ‘true’. Then log into your site & copy-&-paste any errors reported. This is obviously a serious security risk, so please change it back immediately after you’re done.

Lastly please check your hosting provider’s control panel & see if there is an aplet for displaying error logs. Conversely, if not, please ask your host if your site is throwing errors of which they can send you a copy.

Hello, Abe, & welcome. First, could you please provide a site url?

I’m impressed w/your troubleshooting efforts thus far, in case it makes any difference. Is your hosting provider using any caching, ie, Varnish, Cloudflare, etc. Also, is your site using a caching plugin such as W3Cache, etc?

Hello, davidsdynappix, & welcome to the WordPress support forum. Please try changing both your WordPress & site urls to begin w/http://www & see if the problem resolves.

JIGSAW, please let us see your .htaccess file. Also, please go to Settings > General in your site’s dashboard & report to us your site & WordPress url’s.

If you have any questions on how to do these, please ask.

Your homepage is actually redirecting to a .html url, which of course is incorrect. It may be a misconfiguration on your hosting provider’s part, but let’s have a look at the .htaccess file. You can find it either in your hosting provider’s control panel or via an FTP client. It’s a hidden file, so make sure that the option to view hidden files is checked in either your hosting provider’s file manager or your ftp client.

Hello again Berriban. Likely the easiest way to do this is w/a membership plugin. You can go to ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins & search for that. You may need to try more than 1 to see which best meets your needs. If you install plugins but later decide you don’t need them, please delete them, not just deactivate them, as this can help make your site more secure.

If you feel your topic has been resolved, please mark it as such so that the forum volunteers will know your difficulty has reached a satisfactory conclusion & we can go on to help others. If you still have questions, however, please don’t hesitate to ask. We’ll do what we can. Thanks.

Hello, wssoo2, & welcome. First, might I suggest you start your own topic. This is a resolved topic, & it’s therefore unlikely to be seen. The only reason I did was because I forgot to unsubscribe from it.

2nd, I would say this is not a WordPress problem if you’re having trouble w/ftp as well. I was actually able to view your site’s homepage, but no other pages. My first thought is that you discuss this w/your hosting provider. My 2nd thought is that you might wish to try renaming your plugins folder by putting a 1 or a .old at the end, like plugins1 or plugins.old. Very likely you can do this via your hosting control panel. I’m also concerned that you’re not using a default theme, & you can simply rename the theme folder as in my above reply, w/the warning that it will break your site until you’re able to change it to something different.

Please start a new topic if your hosting provider can’t help, & you can feel free to post a link to it here if you wish.

Hello, berriban, & welcome. W/all due respect, I think you’re possibly misunderstanding the ramifications of making a private page. Here’s a link to explain it all.
https://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Content_Visibility

Basically, editors & admins can see private pages as long as they’re logged in under an editor or admin account. If they’re logged in as a standard user, (even if they’re the same person), they won’t see the private page.

HTH.

Hello again, RDC4. Let’s try a couple things, if we could. First, please change your theme to a default theme (they begin with the word twenty) & see if you can upload a .htaccess file & make the site work. If not, & w/the default theme still in place, please disable your plugins. You can do that by renaming your plugins folder by adding a 1 or a .old to the end of the plugins folder name, either via your hosting provider’s control panel or an FTP (preferably secure FTP) client like Filezilla. Again, see if your site works w/a .htaccess file.

If not, then please ask your hosting provider if they have mod_security enabled & if they’re seeing any errors that are being triggered by your site. Also, some hosting control panels permit viewing of your site’s error logs. You may wish to go into your control panel & see if this is the case w/yours. Additionally, sometimes there are files, called error.log or error_log, that may be present in the folder where you installed WordPress. If that is the case, feel free to post errors that correspond to the dates that this is occurring.

Please llet us know if you have questions regarding how to perform any of these steps. We’re happy to help.
