    Hi All,

    I'm migrating a site (with some pretty ancient plugins albeit updated) to Genesis on WpEngine. Whenever I activate Genesis, I am unable to access my wp admin area - I just get an error saying "Too Many Redirects". I don't even get the chance to install a child theme. The host staff thought it was from the genesis update section of the code, but I haven't seen that before.

    Any clues about this? I'd love to use Genesis!

    Thanks
    K

    FYI. I solved this myself- removed and deactivated plugins (many were VERY old) and then updated wordpress.
    Worked like a charm.
    🙂
