    I recently created a testing site, and I still seem to be pushing email notifications to subscribers of my live site. Can you advise how I could get it to stop? I tried deactivating Jetpack today before putting up a test podcast, but later a subscriber left a comment on that post. Do I need to delete Jetpack altogether on the test site?

    Jetpack uses an option set in the database, so if the testing site has the full database duplicated, that would cause that oddities like that.

    One idea is to add this to your wp-config.php on the testing site:
    define('JETPACK_DEV_DEBUG', true);
    (assuming that persists when updating the testing site), which would put Jetpack into development mode.

    Alternatively, deleting Jetpack from the testing site would work as well, though I would suggest doing it via FTP. If you delete Jetpack via the WordPress interface, as a safety precaution, it would disable the security token used to communicate with your site, meaning that Jetpack would be effectively deactivated on the primary site.

    Cheers!
