The ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS error indicates that the page you are trying to visit is caught in a “redirect loop”. It means that your browser is being infinitely redirected to a different page each time it hits the requested URL. This can happen while trying to login or while accessing certain protected pages. After many attempts to land on the correct page, your browser still cannot successfully load your website so this error is displayed.

This post will go into some common issues with WP-Cron and how to troubleshoot and fix those issues on your WordPress site.

Paid Memberships Pro can be used to set up membership levels with many different pricing structures. You can configure a level to offer a recurring subscription or a level with a one-time payment and expiration date. Unless you really want a membership to expire after a certain time frame, you usually DO NOT want to set BOTH a recurring billing amount AND an expiration date on your levels.
