Does this still work with Jetpack 3.4? We updated a few sites to Jetpack 3.4, and the new Protect module was activated even though we have Manual Control for Jetpack activated.
]]>I’ve just run some site stats and found that Jetpack eats up almost 50% of my site’s load time.
I probably use less than 30% of it so a lot of what is bundled isn’t needed.
I installed automattic but there does not seem to be a way of identifying and selecting Jetpack the modules that I don’t use.
Is there a way I can do this with automattic? I hope there is as I like Jetpack but it’s a monster on resources compared to other plugins.
Thanks,
Jim
]]>This is the error I have. Think it is related?
Your Jetpack has a glitch. Something went wrong that’s never supposed to happen. Guess you’re just lucky: stop_auto_activating

I just added Jetpack to a new website, in order to use two functionalities (out of 25): “Carousel” and “Sharing”.
In order to save my time, I first installed your wonderful “Menu Humility” and “Manual Control for Jetpack” plugins, before installing and activating Jetpack.
As observed by others, this doesn’t prevent Jetpack from activating all the “active by default” settings, which is 18 out of 25.
It would be much faster to just enable the 2 needed features, instead of having to disable 18 of them (which each time triggers a page reload). Imagine if you had to perform that repeatedly on a large number of sites…
Btw, another Jetpack feature that I would love to *fix*: for items that are not active, the whole item area is actually an activation button. Not the blue “activate” button, but the whole box.
]]>I just started using Manual Control, and I really appreciate this plugin.
In the latest update to Jetpack 2.0.2 there is now a notice in the admin menu (circle with number 4 in it) letting me know that there are new modules. Since they were not activated due to Manual Control, do you think this notification will go away eventually?
If I remember right in the past it went away after I clicked the “Learn More” button in new modules and either deactivated or configured them. I can get used to the notification, but I could see a client wondering why it’s there and why I don’t do something about it.
]]>Thanks for the nice hack. Just installed a demo site with jp 1.5. Was able to selectively disable all available modules.
]]>I understand that this plugin will prevent new features being activated with Jetpack upgrades, but does it prevent all features from being activated on a new Jetpack install/activation?
I just installed both plugins (Manual Control and Jetpack) and activated Manual Control first, then activated Jetpack, all the modules of Jetpack were active, is that normal?
