Do you have your wp-admin directory password protected?
I’m not sure if it is password protected. Any tips? How to check it?

Will do check the Admin Ajax Issue. Thanks!

Hello!
I have done adding this to the .htaccess inside the /wp-admin/ folder

<Files admin-ajax.php>
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
    Satisfy any
</Files>

But the error message “Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found)” still show up and giving me infinite load time ??

When I go to https://socialmingles.com.au/wp-admin.php I get a login screen that is different from the normal WordPress login screen. Where does that screen come from?

It doesn’t appear that you have the wp-admin directory password protected so adding the code wasn’t necessary.

If it’s from a plugin it may be that that plugin is interfering with the access to admin-ajax.php.

Hi Matt Knowles!

The login screen you are seeing I believe is generated by the s2membership plugin. It is one of the feature of the plugin to provide this kind of login layout.

Hope it helps

Try disabling that plugin and see if it solves the problem. If not, try disabling all your plugins and see if the problem goes away.

I cannot disable the s2membership plugin.

It would cause a lot of problems if I deactivate that.

This site is built with that plugin and the previous developer do the codings needed for this site.

I don’t know what to do for this site. It leads me nowhere ??
