[chrisaldrich] The production version or the new one you were working on?
#
[chrisaldrich] Oh I see... This was from earlier. I haven't seen anything specific, but I'll look shortly...
#
GWG I haven't either.
#
GWG But I want to track it down if I can
#
[miklb] GWG I’m seeing PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Only variables can be passed by reference in /var/www/html/miklb.com/content/plugins/indieweb-post-kinds/includes/tabs/tab-author.php:13 in my debug.log. I was only looking at the js console earlier
#
[miklb] also PHP Warning: Illegal string offset ‘name’ in /var/www/html/miklb.com/content/plugins/indieweb-post-kinds/includes/tabs/tab-author.php on line 13
#
GWG That's interesting.
#
GWG I thought I made everything an array
#
GWG I need to figure out how to test that.
#
GWG But how can you unit test form elements? Hmm...

jeremycherfas Getting a "too many redirects" error from all */wp-admin/* pages, but not from the site itself. Can anyone see a reason in the htaccess file https://gist.github.com/jeremycherfas/c6466a630ae597ee05c7e940ea66c8d0 Thanks
#
sknebel jeremycherfas: on what site?
#
jeremycherfas Https://eatthispodcast.com
#
tantek if you do figure out how you caused it - perhaps document it! I'd love to send all the badbots probing for /wp-admin/* pages on my sites into an infinite redirect in some difficult to figure out way :P
#
jeremycherfas Right. Well, I removed all the plugins, figuring it might be one of them doing some stupid redirects, and that hasn't helped. Yet.
#
jeremycherfas Now to disable cloudflare.
#
jeremycherfas Should I be testing without caching thugh?
#
jeremycherfas No plugins, no htaccess, no Cloudflare, still have the problem!
#
jeremycherfas I don't have Chrome on this laptop, but I do have an older firefox. Does that have no-cache browsing?

#
sknebel yes, in the devtools settings
#
sknebel but I'm still getting 302
#
sknebel well, also still going through cloudflare
#
Zegnat jeremycherfas, it isn’t that the admin page is configured to only load on www. ? I don’t see how that would happen, but that would send you in an infinite loop
#
jeremycherfas I don't believe it is configured any differently to the main site. Let me check.
#
Zegnat It could be in a config file or in the database, but WP people might know better if that is a thing.

#
jeremycherfas If I put no www in the URL, I get the same error, but the URL now has www -- so maybe you are onto something. Let me check wp-config
#
Zegnat for cookie and session reasons I could see why the admin would always try to redirect to a specific domain, even if the real website doesn’t
#
Zegnat And your htaccess forces www to no-www, but if wp-admin then tries to force no-www to www ... you see where that is going
#
sknebel the redirect isn't between www and non-www though
#
jeremycherfas I've tried defining WP_HOME and WP_SITEURL with and without www and that doesn't seem to make any difference, at least with the htaccess in place. Let me try without any htaccess
#
jeremycherfas Is this sort of thing cached?
#
sknebel shouldn#t be in this case
#
jeremycherfas Makes no difference if ntaccess is not present!
#
jeremycherfas I think I might ask DreamHost. I've tried everything.

tantek what is jc-woocommerce
#
Loqi It looks like we don't have a page for "jc-woocommerce" yet. Would you like to create it?
#
tantek what is woocommerce
#
Loqi It looks like we don't have a page for "woocommerce" yet. Would you like to create it?
#
[miklb] WooCommerce is a plugin and add-on ecosystem for WordPress to allow for e-commerce
#
Loqi ok
