Have u edited the X theme files? if u view the source of your site there are several spaces before the code starts, this can cause problems writing sessions and cookies properly which might be the problem, can you try updating a fresh copy of X?

I have only edited x-theme files in the child theme. I just updated x-theme with a new copy. But the problem still remains.

Try turning off the child theme for a second. Updating the theme has no effect on customised pages in the child theme.

OK. Did that as well. But no change.

Hi,

please see image attached. The problem is caused by those 5 blank lines. They shouldn’t be there.

I don’t think the problem comes from the child theme. It’s probably another plugin causing it, did you try disabling all non GD Plugins to see if the problem goes away?

It would help identify the culprit.

Let us know,

Thanks

I don’t want to mess up my live site too much by disabling all plugins again, but I have exactly the same site (part from some recent css changes) in a dev-environment. Same admin login-credentials should work for you as well. With all other plugins disabled, the site is a real mess, but it still doesn’t solve the login problem.

You can take a look at it here:

The 5 blank lines are still visible, please make the user super admin there too.

I want to disable GD too to see if the 5 lines remain, in that cane you’d have to ask for support to the author of X.

Thanks

I don’t know what I have to say or explain to make them believe that it’s a problem with their theme that the gd-login page won’t load… I have a feeling they’ll say they can’t give support for a third party plugin. It is after all the gd-login page that won’t load properly. The normal wordpress login page loads. Any suggestions on how to address it?

Show them the screenshot of your home page source. https://wpgd-jzgngzymm1v50s3e3fqotwtenpjxuqsmvkua.netdna-ssl.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/Capture-13.jpg

Ask them why that is happening, they don’t need to know about the GD login.

Tell them we disabled everything, so it can only be the theme.

Thanks

So I contacted x-theme, and this is what they said about the 5 empty lines:

Yup that is normal, view-source some of the sites here: http://theme.co/x/showcase/ most if not all have that 5 empty lines, perhaps that has nothing to do with the issue.

They tried to log in and out, click register and forgot password, and had no problems doing so using the ordinary wp-login page. When I asked them to use the “My Dashboard” login-box, they wrote as expected:

It sounds like you might be having an issue with a third party plugin(GeoDirectory). Regretfully, we cannot provide support for third party plugins or scripts… any questions you have regarding setup, integration, or troubleshooting any piece of functionality that is not native to X will need to be directed to the original developer.

So I’m sorry that I have to turn it back to you again. There must be something different with the gd-login page or widget, since the wordpress login page works fine but gd-login doesn’t.

Can you please help?

Ok I just tested with another theme and the problem persist until you manually clear the cookies.

That must be a server issue. I asked to the developers to investigate deeper.

Thanks

In our login page we have a check “get_current_user_id()” this is returning the user id even if apparently logged out, there must be some sort of server caching or it’s not clearing the cookies properly.

You are the only person with this problem.

I’m not aware of any server caching being done. I have enabled mod_deflate to enable gzip compression, but that seems to be pretty standard and shouldn’t affect this, should it?
