    Okay, been trying to solve some issues for a week or so.

    I was developing a website at est.amongelephants.com

    We are pushing it live at ericsamueltimm.com, so I pointed the domain to the server to the same directory, so the only thing that is changing is the url from est.amongelephants.com to ericsamueltimm.com. I changed the url in the admin panel and now I get a redirect loop. Any ideas?

    There could be a number of reasons for the issue.

    1: First check “Site URL” and “Address URL” from “Settings>>General” option in WordPress. If www is not added in the site URL and address URL of your website please add www on both and try again. If www is already added then remove www from both then try.

    2: Check .htaccess file is configured correctly. You can rename current .htaccess file to .htaccess.back then create a new one with default WordPress .htaccess rules as follows.

    # 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

    You can refer the following WordPresss documentation to get more information about WordPress .htaccess files.

    Note: After making the changes try to access Website after clearing your browser cache and cookies.
