Good Evening,

Since I updated my buddypress I cannot access member profiles including my own. Every time I try to access my profile, messages, change avatar, etc, I get this message: “Safari can not open the page. Too many redirects occurred trying to open ” http://www.swaggstar.com/members//daypowell|”. This might occur if you open a page that is redirected to another page which then is redirected to open the original page.”

None of my members can access their profiles to change their avatar, check messages, add friends, etc. Please help. I have new members signing up everyday.
My website domain is http://www.SwaggStar.com and the link to my profile page is http://www.swaggstar.com/members/daypowell. I have uninstalled and reinstalled buddypress numerous times. I have also disable other plug ins to make sure there was not a conflict.
If you go to my page and click on one of the member profiles on the right sidebar you will get the message described above. However, when I click on member profiles from a windows pc (internet Explorer), nothing ever happens. It trys to connect but eventually says Internet Explorer cant open the page.

Have you deactivated all other BuddyPress plugins and custom code snippets? If so, try adding this code snippet to your wp-content/plugins/bp-custom.php:

`remove_action( ‘bp_template_redirect’, ‘bp_redirect_canonical’, 2 );`

This will remove the canonical redirect hook that might be causing you some issues.

I have deactivated all plug ins and reactivated them one at a time… But it did not fix the problem. Can I just copy and past that code to the wp-content/plugins/bp-custom.php file/folder? I am not a programer and only know the basics. Would I go to my wordpress appearance/editor and paste this code. Or would I have to go through filezilla?

[@swaggstar Participant 12 years, 4 months ago]

That solved the problem and everything seems to be working fine. I just copied and pasted that code in the buddypress/bp-loader.php file and it worked… Thank you!!!. I would’ve never known to do that… Thanks times a million

@swaggstar Where in BP-Loader.php did you place the file? I’m having the same issue and have been since 1.6.x released.

[@swaggstar Participant 12 years, 3 months ago]

I simply went to the buddypress/bp-loader.php file and pasted the code below at the end of the file…

Try adding this code snippet to your wp-content/plugins/bp-custom.php:
remove_action( ‘bp_template_redirect’, ‘bp_redirect_canonical’, 2 );

This will remove the canonical redirect hook that might be causing you some issues.

[@rodtrent Participant 12 years, 3 months ago]

Thanks! Worked like a charm.

[@rodtrent Participant 12 years, 3 months ago]

Interesting that it wouldn’t work in bp-custom, but had to be placed in bp-loader.

Didn’t work on this end. Tried both locations.
