What causes this?

In admin, go to Settings -> General

Do you have different subdomains set in “WordPress Address” and “Site Address”? or are they both the same?

Same address, no sub-domains.

Ok, what you have those two set to?

Did this problem start after moving your WordPress installation into a folder?

set to the site URL only. Dot com then nothing.

Neither site has moved. Always been in the root directory.

I keep thinking it was a setting but the settings are the same on all but one site, yet these two won’t close down without clicking. It may not seem like a big deal but when rushing to shut the laptop I have to stop, click on each site to close it out, and then wonder WHY it happens.

Ok, what is the website’s URL?

Is it the same if you use a different web browser? or a browser on a computer you have not used to access the site before?

I check from my Win laptop and my iPad. I’m not in a situation where I can use another computer.

I just find it odd only two sites do this.

Please post the url of one of the sites that does this.

Two sites. But I don’t post my URLs publicly. Nope, four sites. I think I night have isolated the plugin but it is on all sites, even these four. So in theory it can’t be this plugin.

This is so frustrating.

Edit: that plugin’s support folks suggest I change a setting. I will, then tomorrow will see and then post.

I’m sorry, but I am not able to help any further without being able to see the site I am trying to troubleshoot. If you change your mind and post the link, I will be able to continue with the investigation.

I can give them privately only. Thanks anyway.
