Website editors can sometimes encounter a problem where their website keeps flickering or reloading every few seconds. This disrupts their ability to move around the site or access the dashboard. This issue is a known bug with WordPress that persists even after updates. However, we may have a solution for you!
If this issue is impacting you, we recommend the following steps:
- Log out of WordPress
- Clear your browser’s cache/browsing data.
- Log back into WordPress, but do not select the “Remember Me” option on the login screen.
By following these steps, you can clean up your browser’s cookies, which might be contributing to the problem of constant reloading. The “Remember Me” option generates a cookie that could become corrupted, causing WordPress to repeatedly attempt to log you in, even though you are already logged in. This creates a loop that users experience as the flickering issue.
