    Get error…Cookies are blocked or not supported by your browser. You must enable cookies to use WordPress…

    when attempting to login into admin

    Extensively searched Google and WordPress forums before posting this to no avail.

    Found posts dated back about a year and tried suggestions I read there. Did all the obvious things such as clearing cache and disabling plugins. Even renamed plugins folder temporarily to disable all plugins via FTP. Contacted host iPage and they dismissed the problem saying they can login ok. They are never much help anyway.

    Tried all browsers on several machines and uploaded fresh files in case of corruption.

    I can occasionally login with Safari for a short while then the problem returns.

    I installed my site at https://smoljanovic.eu/
    back in September 2014. This problem has been plaguing me since about 10 days ago and never before.

    my htaccess contents are…

    RewriteEngine on
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www.smoljanovic.eu [NC]
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://smoljanovic.eu/$1 [L,R=301,NC]
    # BEGIN WordPress
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
    </IfModule>

    # END WordPress

    Can someone please help?

    Thanks,
