After a clean install of wordpress I can't login I get the following:

Too Many Requests

The requested URL has reached its request limit.

Please wait a moment before trying your request again.

I'd FTP to your WP install directory and delete the plugin folder to do with 'Cachewall'

Thanks. All that was in there was that default antispam plugin, deleting that did nothing. I think its something on 10x side, or maybe even cloudflare.

Odd that I can see the site, thus the host isn't blocking pubic view of it. Anything stopping your login into it would be WP related, not the host. I could be wrong though.

Rename the plugins folder to something like "plugins-off" (that will disable them all)

Clear your browser catch, refresh and try again.

Hmmm odd right? That didn't work either. Does anything happen when you click the login link at the bottom?

Dang, I had the same error three hours ago. Might not be related but...
I did a fresh manual install of wordpress three hours ago at http://shop.rodneystevens.com
All good, all working.
I have Cloudflare SSL running on the main domain.
So I went into WP settings and changed the site url http to https
Logged out and tried to log back in via the https login...
Bam, 100% same message you get.
So into myPHPadmin to manually change https back to http
Login started to work again.

  • currently in the database, what's the url of your site, http or https?

Hi. Thanks for the reply! I installed wordpress fresh using the https option, then set up cloudflare flex ssl. I assume the database must be ssl then. Maybe I'll try to install again...

All good.
Make sure you re-name your plugins folder back to 'plugins' as well.

Funny. I was able to "login" after re-install...however...I didn't actually login...I was logged in automatically or something. I'm not able to get into the admin area though. ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS. I'm wondering now if maybe I can ftp that flexable ssl plugin into wp and maybe that will fix it.

Now I can't login again. I think this is an ssl issue. I'm going to need to install as non-ssl then convert.

flexable ssl plugin
I've only ever done full Cloudflare DNS setups, so I'm no help on that.

While trouble shooting...
  • I'd go to Cloudflare and pause everything
  • x10 cPanel >> myPHPadmin >> wp_settings >> change https to http
Have a coffee or vap while Cloudflare wiggles around like a wet mullet catching up.

Browser refresh.

If that doesn't work, I'd have another coffee and wipe everything and reinstall WP from scratch (all of 2 minutes work) using http instead of https.

I always leave SSL until the very end when I know everything else is fine.
Crickey, I need a coffee :)
