So I took some time to deactivate every plugin I could, but the redirection is still occurring. I am unable to deactivate Jetpack, as that’s managed by WordPress. The other plugins I could not disable (or wouldn’t for fear of breaking my site) are: Akismet, CoBlocks, Gutenberg, Layout Grid, SeedProd, WordPress Editing Toolkit, Yoast, and of course, the WP Affiliate Manager, which I’m trying to troubleshoot.
Once again, this plugin *was* working several months ago, along with all of my plugins. Though I do understand updates can break how plugins interact with each other.
I’d love to get this working, but I might have to seek out another plugin if my affiliates simply can’t log in.
@Shadow Labs,
Yes, my host is wordpress.com. I took a look at the linked forum topic, but I didn’t see anything there that helps with my troubleshooting.
I do have a Redirection plugin also installed, but I have double-checked that it is not causing this behavior (the redirection still occurs even when the plugin is deactivated, and the redirection doesn’t show in any of the plugin’s logs).
Oddly enough, the second issue above seems to have resolved itself, and I can log in once more. But logging in still redirects to my /wp-admin page instead of the /affiliates page.
In an attempt for more information, I turned on logging in the Network tab of Chrome’s Inspector. I’m confused as to why the “submit” button is evidently a Facebook URL? And the “Name” of the redirect includes “primary destination wp-admin.php.” Perhaps I’m misinterpreting? Are you able to make more sense of this screenshot?

@Shadow Labs, I did reply. The affiliate login is redirecting to my /wp-admin page. Yes, that is under the wordpress.com domain. My website does not explicitly redirect to wordpress.com. I don’t know why affiliates logging in are being redirected to the /wp-admin page. It’s my understanding that they should be redirected to the /affiliates page, instead, as per my settings under the WP Affiliate Manager plugin.
It’s important to note that when I first installed this plugin many months ago, it was behaving as I would expect. But now that I finally have an affiliate trying to log in, I have revisited the plugin and am noticing this errant behavior.
When I just tried to log in *while already logged into my WordPress account*, it redirected me to my wp-admin page.. NOT the /affiliates/ page as expected. I have no idea why it’s doing that.
There’s also a new strange behavior: my affiliates/affiliate-login/ page is now redirecting to my homepage (it’s not a caching issue, because this happens in incognito as well). Tracking the redirect, it’s coming back as a 301 permanently moved. No matter how I rename the page (and update the appropriate settings in in the plugin), it still comes back with a 301 to my homepage. I’m honestly not sure how I got it to load for the first login above.
@Shadow Labs, It doesn’t look like I can upload a file here, so I’ve shared it on Google Drive:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1wU-5blE7xlEc1fIgddGVY0-Huk5SfcuH/view?usp=sharingThis is a short screen recording of the behavior. I log in once, then it prompts me to log in a second time with WP credentials (which are different from the affiliates credentials).
@Shadow Labs, yes he got the login and was able to log in no problem. However, immediately after logging into the affiliates portal, he’s taken to a page asking him to log into a WordPress account, which he doesn’t have.
To clarify: he is asked to log in TWICE: once with his affiliates credentials, and a second time with WordPress credentials.
I have verified this behavior by adding myself as an affiliate. I obviously *do* have a WP account, but neither I nor he should need to log into it to view the portal.
