Hi @devnihil
I’ve got an update on the issue.
The problem happens whenever a WordPress theme has the following line in its functions file:
add_filter( ‘rewrite_rules_array’, ‘disable_embeds_rewrites’ );
If I update Yoast while that line of code is present in the functions file of any theme, the site goes into the redirect loop.
If I remove that line of code from the functions file, the loop stops. If I add the line of code back, the loop does not restart.
Also, if I remove that line of code from the functions file of the theme before updating Yoast and then update Yoast, the loop does not occur.
I’ve replicated the above steps at least 15 times just to confirm.
The issue is related to updating from Yoast Version 7.3 to the current version.
Please review and then update this thread.
Thank you.
