lfreberg and EGGO,
I hope someone finds an answer to this problem because it’s happened to me too and in my case, the clearing out the redirect code does not get me to the dashboard. I’m completely locked out.
I’ve verified that my database shows the first directory. I’ve replaced my wp-login.php file. I’ve verified that my .htaccess file seems on the up and up. I’ve changed my password. Nothing gets me in.
