I have exactly the same problem! No fix?

Latest: while it works to uninstall/reinstall, I have to do it each time there is an update for a plugin. I’ve reinstalled a couple of plugins twice now. Still need a fix for this.

I had exactly the same problem. I ended up deleting/reinstalling the plugins. So far I’ve had to reinstall SEO All in One Pack, Jetpack and Akismet. Today I had the problem with WP Ultimate Recipe. Fortunately all my settings and data were saved and I didn’t have to reconfigure anything or re-type the recipes. Hope this helps.

Solution: the problem was an .htaccess file in public_html. I replaced what was there
(which was
RewriteOptions inherit
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^atravelfortaste\.com$ [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^www\.atravelfortaste\.com$
RewriteRule ^/?$ “http\:\/\/www\.atravelfortaste\.com\/wpblog” [R=301,L]

with

# 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

Live preview works, changing permalinks works, no redirect errors. I’m back to original functionality! Thanks to https://codex.www.ads-software.com/htaccess

I tried saving permalinks settings but it breaks the site and I get the redirect error again.

Ok, I’ve made progress! I deactivated all plugins, then backed up .htaccess file from wpblog directory. Then I deleted .htaccess so it could be recreated. Now homepage shows up with no redirect errors. However, when I click on individual post title links, I get a 404 error.

I’m marking this topic resolved – re: the original logging into admin problem. I’ll post the other in a new message. Thanks again to you both!

Thanks, all, for the quick responses!
Girlieworks, your suggestion worked like a charm!

Now, when I did that dumb move, it was in an attempt to fix a previous problem that I’m still having.

I was trying to implement a redirect because my blog used to be on blogger. I want people who click a link to a blogger page to end up on the same post in my wp installation. I used the method in the article here, Step 4. https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-switch-from-blogger-to-wordpress-without-losing-google-rankings/

I successfully installed the suggested code in the blogger site. However, when I tried to edit the functions.php file in my theme per the instructions, there is now a redirect error when trying to open my blog at https://www.atravelfortaste.com/wpblog. The theme I was using is Virtue. When I backed out of my changes to functions.php, there was still an error. I switched to default themes in turn (Twenty Sixteen, Fifteen, Fourteen), but the error did not resolve itself. I cleared cache and cookies on several browsers on two different devices, but I’m still getting the redirect error. Also, the live preview in admin for all themes is a blank, white screen. I’ve removed Virtue and its plugin completely, still no change.

Should I open a different request on the forums for this?

Thank you all again so much!
