¿Está intentando corregir el problema “Error demasiadas redirecciones” en su sitio web de WordPress?
Es un error común de WordPress que puede estar causado por un plugin o por ajustes incorrectos. Sin embargo, deja a los usuarios bloqueados en sus sitios web de WordPress, lo que lo hace especialmente problemático.
En este artículo, le mostraremos cómo corregir fácilmente el problema ‘Error demasiadas redirecciones’ en WordPress. También veremos cómo recuperar el acceso a tu sitio web y diagnosticar el error.
¿Cuál es la causa del problema “Demasiadas redirecciones de error” en WordPress?
‘Error too many redirects’ está causado por un problema / conflicto / incidencia de redirección mal configurada en WordPress.
Como ya sabrás, WordPress tiene una característica de estructura de URL SEO-friendly que utiliza la función de redirección. Del mismo modo, muchos plugins populares de WordPress utilizan esta característica para establecer redirecciones temporales, crear redirecciones 301 permanentes y corregir errores 404.
Si está utilizando un plugin para corregir el problema de contenido inseguro SSL o un plugin de caché de WordPress, entonces también puede afectar a las redirecciones y causar el error ‘demasiadas redirecciones’.
Este es el aspecto del mensaje “ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS” en Google Chrome.
Sin embargo, este error no le indica qué está causando el conflicto y forzando el bucle de redirección en WordPress.
Así es como se ve el error en Firefox con el mensaje ‘La página no está redirigiendo correctamente’.
Dicho esto, echemos un vistazo a cómo corregir el problema de demasiadas redirecciones en WordPress.
Le guiaremos paso a paso para diagnosticar el error, obtener acceso a su sitio de WordPress y evitar que vuelva a producirse.
Tutorial en vídeo
Si prefiere instrucciones escritas, siga leyendo.
1. Vaciar cookies y caché del navegador
Una causa común del error podrían ser las cookies de su navegador / explorador web. Prueba a acceder a tu sitio web con otro navegador / explorador, como Firefox, Safari, Opera o Microsoft Edge.
Si puede acceder a su sitio web con normalidad utilizando otro navegador, deberá vaciar las cookies y la memoria caché de su navegador habitual.
Tenemos una guía detallada sobre cómo vaciar la caché de tu navegador / explorador en los principales navegadores que te ayudará a hacerlo.
Por otra parte, si el cambio de navegador no corrige el problema, puede pasar al siguiente paso.
2. Desactivar todos los plugins de WordPress
La causa más común de los bucles de redirección de WordPress o ‘ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS’ es un conflicto de plugins. Un plugin de WordPress tratando de establecer una redirección de una manera que entre en conflicto con las redirecciones por defecto de WordPress puede causar este mensaje de error.
Para corregir esto, es necesario desactivar todos los plugins de WordPress en su sitio web. Normalmente, basta con ir a la página Plugins ” Todos los plugins en el área de administrador de WordPress y desactivar los plugins desde allí.
Sin embargo, suponemos que debido al error de redirección, es posible que no se haya podido acceder al área de administrador de WordPress.
En ese caso, tendrá que desactivar los plugins de WordPress utilizando un cliente FTP como FileZilla o la aplicación Administrador de archivos de su panel de control de alojamiento de WordPress.
Simplemente conéctese a su sitio web utilizando un cliente FTP y vaya a la carpeta /wp-content/.
Allí encontrará la carpeta plugins, que deberá renombrar a ‘plugins.deactivate’.
Esto desactivará todos los plugins de WordPress de su sitio.
Básicamente, WordPress busca una carpeta llamada plugins para cargar los archivos de los plugins. Cuando no encuentra la carpeta, automáticamente desactiva los plugins activos en la base de datos.
Ahora, puede intentar visitar su sitio web de WordPress. Si ahora puede acceder al área de administrador de WordPress, significa que uno de los plugins estaba causando el error.
Para averiguar qué plugin es el culpable, tienes que volver al cliente FTP o a la aplicación de gestión de archivos y cambiar el nombre de la carpeta plugins.deactivate a ‘plugins’.
Después de eso, cambie al área de administrador de WordPress de su sitio web y vaya a la página Plugins ” Todos los plugins. Desde aquí, puedes activar tus plugins uno a uno y luego visitar tu sitio web para ver si puedes reproducir el error.
Una vez que encuentre el plugin que está causando el error, puede encontrar una alternativa a ese plugin o informar del problema en el foro de soporte de WordPress del plugin.
3. Corrección de URL de WordPress
Otra causa importante de este error es una mala configuración en los ajustes de URL de WordPress. Normalmente, puede ver estas opciones en la página Ajustes ” General.
En la mayoría de los sitios web, las URL de los campos Dirección de WordPress y Dirección del sitio deben ser iguales. Sin embargo, algunos usuarios pueden acabar utilizando ‘www’ en una URL y una URL que no sea www en la otra.
Dado que es posible que no tenga acceso al área de administrador de WordPress, es posible que tenga que corregir las URL de WordPress utilizando un cliente FTP o la aplicación Administrador de archivos.
Simplemente conéctese a su sitio WordPress utilizando un cliente FTP y vaya a /wp-content/themes/your-theme-folder/.
A partir de aquí, tienes que encontrar el archivo functions.php y editarlo usando un editor de texto plano como Notepad o TextEdit.
A continuación, tienes que añadir el siguiente código en la parte inferior:
update_option( 'siteurl', 'https://example.com' );
update_option( 'home', 'https://example.com' );
No olvide sustituir “https://example.com” por las URL de su sitio. Ahora puede guardar los cambios y volver a subir el archivo a su sitio web.
Después de eso, intente visitar su sitio web para ver si esto resuelve el error.
Para más métodos, consulte nuestro tutorial sobre cómo cambiar fácilmente las URL de WordPress.
4. Restablecer el archivo .htaccess de WordPress
El archivo .htaccess es un archivo especial que utiliza el servidor del sitio web para gestionar las redirecciones y otros ajustes del servidor. WordPress también utiliza este archivo para las URL SEO-friendly y otras redirecciones.
A veces, los plugins de WordPress pueden realizar cambios en el archivo .htaccess de su sitio web, lo que puede desencadenar este error. También es posible que la desactivación de un plugin no quite esos cambios de su archivo .htaccess.
En ese caso, tendrá que restablecer manualmente su archivo .htaccess de WordPress.
Una vez más, tendrá que acceder a su sitio web mediante un cliente FTP o la aplicación Administrador de archivos del panel de control de su alojamiento. Una vez conectado, verá el archivo .htaccess en la carpeta raíz de su sitio web.
Nota: Si no puede encontrar su archivo .htaccess, consulte nuestra guía sobre cómo encontrar el archivo .htaccess en WordPress.
En primer lugar, debe descargar una copia de su archivo .htaccess a su ordenador como copia de seguridad. Después de eso, usted puede seguir adelante y borrar el archivo de su sitio web.
Ahora puede intentar visitar su blog de WordPress. Si todo funciona con normalidad, significa que su archivo .htaccess estaba causando el error de redirección.
Ahora, como hemos borrado el archivo .htaccess, tendrá que volver a crearlo. Normalmente, tu sitio web WordPress puede hacerlo por sí mismo. Para asegurarte, sólo tienes que ir a la página de Ajustes ” Enlaces permanentes y hacer clic en el botón “Guardar cambios” en la parte inferior.
5. Prevención de errores demasiados redireccionamientos en WordPress
Esperamos que los pasos que acabamos de dar hayan corregido el problema / conflicto / incidencia en su sitio web. Si no se corrigió el problema, entonces es posible que tenga que hablar con su empresa de alojamiento de WordPress para asegurarse de que no hay un problema de servidor.
Una vez corregido el problema en su sitio, también debería poder averiguar la causa.
Si se trata de un plugin, debes informar de la incidencia en el foro de soporte del plugin. Consulte nuestra guía sobre cómo solicitar soporte de WordPress. Sin embargo, si no se ha podido obtener ayuda, siempre se puede encontrar un plugin alternativo que haga lo mismo.
Si el error fue causado por una mala configuración del sitio de WordPress, entonces puede tomar nota de ello y asegurarse de que los ajustes de su sitio están correctamente establecidos.
Para obtener más consejos, consulte nuestro tutorial detallado sobre cómo diagnosticar problemas de WordPress por su cuenta como un profesional.

I tried all the solutions given above, still getting the same error “redirected you too many times.”.
It will be really helpful if I can get any SPOC from WordPress or any other solution which can be tried.

If you’re using CloudFlare or something like that, especially with GoDaddy, that often causes a redirect loop as well. Update the DNS / Nameservers.

If none of the above works and you are using Cloudflare for DNS, check your SSL settings in Cloudflare. If you have an SSL installed on your hosting server, you need to change the SSL mode to Full (strict) in Cloudflare.

Hi, I was struggling with this issue for a while and it took me a great degree of research to actually find the solution.
If you are experiencing “Too many redirects” problem with WordPress
In my situation, the new website was behind a reverse proxy (NGINX).
You need to add this to the fix list above.
Modify wp-config.php add the text
/**
* Handle SSL reverse proxy
*/
if ($_SERVER[‘HTTP_X_FORWARDED_PROTO’] == ‘https’)
$_SERVER[‘HTTPS’]=’on’;
if (isset($_SERVER[‘HTTP_X_FORWARDED_HOST’])) {
$_SERVER[‘HTTP_HOST’] = $_SERVER[‘HTTP_X_FORWARDED_HOST’];}
WPBeginner Support says
Thank you for sharing for those on NGINX servers

I was tearing my hair out over this and found another thing to check. If you’re behind a load balancer this can cause the WordPress is_ssl() function to return incorrect values, which can put you into a redirect loop as it tries to redirect to a secure URL even though you’re already at a secure URL.
Mohammed Alshami says
how did you fix it ?

I understand the issue when it is happening over the entire website. My problem is that one category of pages (registration pages for my memberships) is being affected by this issue. Any idea why the error would be specific to a category?
Every other page on my site is working.

Hi! I cloned my site to a new URL using GoDaddy’s Installatron feature, and now when I try to access the cloned site using the new URL, it says ‘too many redirects.’ This means I can’t even access the WordPress back end. Is there a way to try disabling plugins without that access? Do I just temporarily move them to a new folder? Or do you have any suggestions?

Randy King says
Here is a totally bizarre solution. The infinite login loop just started happening with no change in plugins, etc. I did everything – changed my theme, replaced the .htaccess file, etc. Here’s what I finally ended up doing that seems to have fixed everything: I rebooted my laptop and waited for several hours (in case it was a hosting problem). When I came back in, it all worked.
I tried clearing browser cache and did everything I could find, but nothing worked. I suspect there was something wacky going on that a reboot cleared up for me. And this is not the first time that this happened. Totally bizarre.
WPBeginner Support says
That is an odd solution but thanks for sharing it, you may want to check with your hosting provider to see if they see the error as well if it continues.

Hi,
I had this error on the product tag page. I tried all the possible repairs mantioned above with no luck.
Finally, I had to rename slug for tags not to be numbers, eg. 2016, so I renamed it to r2016 and it started to work!
It must have been caused by some wordpress update, because it have been working few years before with tags named as numbers.
