Just delete them? That won’t create new site IDs each and every time? Obviously I don’t want to lose any configuration (such as connected Facebook/Twitter/LinkedIn accounts) each time I shove the site forward or backward.

If you could quickly take a look, the proper production URL for my site is whatsbroken.com.au (not the dev.* variation).

Cheers.

Thanks for the response. I’ll let you know how it goes next time I post something. Did all the disconnect/reconnect things and also saved the general settings all over again just to overwrite everything.

I figured my replication scripts would cause some headaches. Basically to swipe a copy of production to development or visa versa to test any major changes prior to making them live, I use rsync to copy the entire site folder between servers, then mysqldump | mysql to pipe the database between both machines, and then just run a script on the database to change the option_value in wp_options for ‘home’ and ‘siteurl’ to reflect the right URL for one or the other.

Didn’t count on Jetpack to get confused by the change. Might leave the URL as the production URL and change the hosts file on my desktop to point at one or the other when I want to start messing around with things.

Is this something we’ll be able to do for ourselves at some stage? Like most others here, I’m assuming, I first did my WordPress site on a separate development URL, and then copied everything to a production server and gave it a production URL. Today I posted my first post, and LinkedIn + FaceBook used the development URL, however, Twitter used the bit.ly shortened URL which did go to the write server.

I’ve logged into wordpress.com but can’t find any Jetpack settings. Site settings here all look right, and I’ve even just tried to nuke and re-attach the three social accounts, but they don’t want to play nice.
