Hi, folks; weird confluence of events having to do with retiring all /AMP /?=amp and /?print=pdf trailing links, recent WordPress update, etc.
We are getting a redirection loop on certain post slugs when the word ‘champion’ or today ‘campaigns’ as part of slug.
A post slug like /wire/my-story-ends-in-campaigns
would start a redirect loop unable to load page to
/wire/my-story-ends-in-ca
Slugs with ‘champions’ would die after ch
like wire/my-story-with-champions-in-training
would go to a loop of
wire/my-story-with-ch/
SO: I have tried disabling any existing regex or redirects, including security stuff to kill requests to WP admin stuff, turned off mod_pagespeed, restarted Apache, PHP, Nginx, cleared redirects in Redirection plugin, reinstalled Redirection and imported WP internal redirects and cleared them, and still getting this weirdo thing. I even cleaned out some leftover stuff from the PHP plugin in the database, removed all drafts in dbase (which I limit to 3).
Absoultely no idea how to debug this? Is there anything in the Redirection plugin that can track “redirect errors” ? Totally stumped.
I realize this is no fault of your plugin, but ironically trying to manage redirects and suddenly the past couple of weeks have this weird thing I can’t sort. Thanks for any feedback or suggestion.
