TL;DR
If you log in to skool.com, the page loads, then within seconds you're back on the login screen — that's a login loop. The cause is almost always a cookie problem. Skool.com sets a session cookie when you log in. If the browser doesn't accept it, doesn't store it, or strips it before the next request, the next page load thinks you're logged out and bounces you back to login. Common culprits: third-party cookie blocking turned on, privacy extensions like Privacy Badger or uBlock Origin with aggressive rules, browser in incognito/private mode with cookies disabled, or a corrupt cookie left over from a previous session. The fix sequence: try a different browser to confirm it's local, then clear skool.com site data in your main browser, disable extensions one at a time, and log in clean. 90% of loops resolve in under five minutes.

Why login loops happen on skool.com
Modern web auth uses session cookies. When you submit your login, skool's server returns a Set-Cookie header containing a session token. Your browser stores it. On every subsequent request, the browser includes the cookie. The server reads it and recognizes you.
The loop happens when this chain breaks. Maybe your browser blocks the cookie because it's flagged as third-party in your privacy settings. Maybe an extension intercepts the response and strips the Set-Cookie header. Maybe a stale cookie from a previous session is still around and the server can't validate it. Maybe you're in a private browsing window where cookies don't persist across the redirect.
The fix in every case is the same: get the browser to accept and persist the new session cookie.
The 5-minute fix sequence
Step 1: open skool.com in a different browser (if you use Chrome, try Firefox or Safari). If login works there, the issue is local to your main browser.
Step 2: in your main browser, clear skool.com's site data specifically — not all cookies, just skool.com's. In Chrome: Settings → Privacy → Cookies → See all site data → search "skool" → delete. In Safari: Settings → Privacy → Manage Website Data → search "skool" → remove. Then close all skool tabs, restart the browser, log in fresh.
Step 3: if loops continue, disable extensions one at a time. Start with privacy/ad-blocking extensions: uBlock Origin, Privacy Badger, Ghostery, Brave Shields, AdGuard. Reload skool.com after each disable. The extension that, when disabled, lets login stick is your culprit — either whitelist skool.com in that extension or accept the trade-off.
Step 4: if nothing works, your browser profile may be corrupted. Create a fresh browser profile, log in there. If login works in the fresh profile, your old profile has a deeper issue.
Privacy extensions known to interact with skool
Brave Shields (built into Brave browser): often blocks third-party cookies aggressively. In the Brave shield icon next to the URL, lower the shield to Standard for skool.com.
uBlock Origin: usually fine, but custom filter lists can occasionally match skool's session endpoints. If you enabled exotic filter lists, try disabling them.
Privacy Badger: learns to block trackers automatically, can sometimes flag skool's auth endpoints if they look like analytics calls. Disable for skool.com.
Firefox's strict tracking protection: similar story. Set it to Standard or whitelist skool.com.
If you run tools4skool (a Chrome extension for skool community automation), it doesn't interfere with login because it uses your existing session — it doesn't intercept or rewrite auth headers. If you ever suspect any extension, the test is the same: disable, reload, see if login sticks.
Edge cases where the fix above doesn't work
Corporate networks: some workplace networks intercept HTTPS traffic for security scanning. The certificate replacement can break cookie flows. Try logging in from a personal hotspot to confirm; if that works, the corporate network is the issue and you'd need IT to whitelist skool.com.
Date-and-time errors: cookies have expiry timestamps. If your computer's clock is way off (more than a few hours), the browser may immediately consider new cookies expired. Check your system clock is set to automatic.
Multiple skool tabs open: rarely, opening login in one tab while skool is loaded in another tab causes the session token to get clobbered. Close all skool tabs, then open one fresh tab and log in.
Account-side issue: extremely rare, but if your account was flagged by skool's anti-abuse system, the server may issue a session that's immediately revoked. Symptom is identical to a cookie loop. Contact skool support if everything else has failed.
