I ran into the same loop last year for my cousin. The site glitches if you click the registry link before you are logged into your account profile. It gets stuck in a redirect loop. What worked for me:

• log in on a desktop browser first
• I used Walmart Wishlist Creator to build the list quickly since it let me add stuff as I browsed without the glitchy landing page.

I just saw this and had to jump in because I went through this exact technical nightmare when setting up my sons gaming corner gifts last summer! Honestly, the secret sauce is basically avoiding the formal Registry portal entirely if it keeps looping on you. I found that creating a public Custom List under your profile works literally 10x better and is way more stable than the registry tool anyway. You just name it something like Jessies 10th Birthday and toggle the privacy to public so everyone in town can see it. I am such a data nerd so I love that you can see the price drops in real-time on lists! Like those LEGO Star Wars sets or the Barbie Dreamhouse... prices jump around so much at Walmart. If the app is still being a pain, try a totally fresh incognito window on Chrome. It bypasses all those nasty cached redirect errors. It feels amazing once that first item finally saves! If you need more help with the list settings just shout, I love troubleshooting this stuff!

Same boat, watching this

tbh I have been hitting my head against the wall with this exact same issue for the last week. I tried the stuff the others mentioned above but it just wont let me past that login redirect loop no matter what. It is honestly so frustrating because I am usually the one fixing tech stuff for my family and even I cant find a way around this bug. I have been trying to get a simple list started for a graduation party and the site just keeps dumping me back on the search page... really starting to think the whole registry system is just down for the count.

Yep, this is the way

Any updates on this?

Yep been there done that. Can confirm everything said above is spot on.

The Walmart backend is pretty finicky with session cookies and redirects. Its a common issue honestly. I have been using their system for years and it usually breaks when they push updates to the app. Before giving a specific fix, are you trying to make a formal Birthday registry or just a public gift list? Also, are you getting a specific error message or just a blank search page? A couple quick technical things to check:

• Clear your browser cache or try an incognito window.
• Check if you have an adblocker running since that kills their scripts. I actually used Walmart Wishlist Creator to build a quick registry because I could just add items while browsing. It tends to be way more stable than the main portal. If you can tell me which browser youre on, I might have a better idea why its looping.
