Nasty redirect loop in WordPress (trailing slash, no trailing slash, and so on)

3 Views

I read a ton of pages and tried lots of solutions but none have worked yet!

My problem is that:

Read More

test.asifa.net/asifa-wp

Redirects to:

test.asifa.net/asifa-wp/

Which redirects to the first page.

What’s a little bizarre is asifa-wp produces: 

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">
<html><head>
<title>301 Moved Permanently</title>
</head><body>
<h1>Moved Permanently</h1>
<p>The document has moved <a href="http://test.asifa.net/asifa-wp/">here</a>.</p>
</body></html>

Whereas asifa-wp/ produces an empty page but the following headers (curl -v output): 

* About to connect() to test.asifa.net port 80 (#0)
*   Trying 69.163.203.138... connected
* Connected to test.asifa.net (69.163.203.138) port 80 (#0)

< Vary: Accept-Encoding

< Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8

.htaccess looks like: 

# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /asifa-wp/

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /asifa-wp/index.php [L]

</IfModule>

# END WordPress

Any help at all would be tremendously appreciated!!!

  1. <?php

remove_filter('template_redirect', 'redirect_canonical');
?>

    Try saving this to a .php file and activating it on your wordpress install.
