Fixing the WordPress Redirect Issue to /wp-admin/upgrade.php

#wordpress #beginners

If you're suddenly being redirected to /wp-admin/upgrade.php when trying to log into your WordPress site, don’t worry—this is a common issue and can be fixed in just a few steps.

Why Does This Happen?

This usually happens when there’s a mismatch between your WordPress database version and the actual WordPress files. The system thinks an update is needed when it might not be.

How to Fix It

Follow these simple steps to resolve the issue:

1. Check Your Database Version

Log in to your hosting control panel.
Open phpMyAdmin and find your WordPress database.
Locate the wp_options table and check the db_version value.

2. Update Your WordPress Version File

Access your site’s files using FTP or your hosting’s File Manager.
Navigate to wp-includes/ and open the version.php file.
Compare the database version from wp_options with the $wp_db_version value in version.php.
If they don’t match, update the version.php file to reflect the correct database version and save the changes.

That’s it! Now, try logging in again, and your issue should be resolved.

Happy coding! 🚀
