401 Unauthorized During Login Attempts

    Hi,
    On my Buddypress site, if users try logging in, a page comes up that says “401 unauthorized “
    I found a temporary fix around this by placing a theme my login widget there but this will not work in the long run as there is no way to access the user profile page with that. I also use the third party plugin “youzer” and that gives the same 401 unauthorized. I contacted WordPress support, and was told this was not on their end.

    Anyone know what this is?

    How are your users logging in?

    What happens if you deactivate BuddyPress? Do login attempts work? If not, it’s not a BuddyPress issue.

    I haven’t tried that. I contacted WordPress a second time and now they decided to look into it for me, so I am waiting on that.

    If I deactivate Buddypress, what will happen to my site? It is a member community full of groups and forums and I am afraid to break it.

    Is it safe to just deactivate Buddypress like that?

    It’s safe to deactivate BuddyPress, you will lose the BP features but they will come back after you reactivate the plugin, so you can do it quickly to test then reactivate it.

    @venutius thank you so much!
    I did try it and it was not a Buddypress issue 🙂
