Title: Cannot deconnect Jetpack Last modified: August 12, 2018 --- # Cannot deconnect Jetpack * Resolved [Rolf Allard van Hagen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ravanh/) * (@ravanh) * [7 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cannot-deconnect-jetpack/) * Hi, trying to deconnect Jetpack from a primary network site (I need it to reconnect with another WordPress.com account), it does not seem to be possible. * First, my account was indeed deconnected and in WordPress.com the site has disappeared. So far, so good but… when I reload the Jetpack dashboard on the site itself, it appears Jetpack is still connected. However, it does not tell me with which WordPress.com account. It just sais “Connecté en tant que” and nothing after that. * I can try to deconnect again via the link “Gérer la connexion du site” but even though it sais “Vous avez correctement déconnecté Jetpack”, after reloading the dashboard it shows as connected with the ghost account again. * How can I force a deconnection? * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fcannot-deconnect-jetpack%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US) to see the link]_ Viewing 4 replies - 1 through 4 (of 4 total) * Thread Starter [Rolf Allard van Hagen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ravanh/) * (@ravanh) * [7 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cannot-deconnect-jetpack/#post-10583206) * The debugging page sais: * { “error”:”Could not validate security token”, “error_description”:”We were unable to validate a security token for Jetpack communication. Please try disconnecting Jetpack from your WordPress.com account, and connecting it again.” } * But following that advise obviously is not possible 🙁 - This reply was modified 7 years, 10 months ago by [Rolf Allard van Hagen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ravanh/). - This reply was modified 7 years, 10 months ago by [Rolf Allard van Hagen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ravanh/). - This reply was modified 7 years, 10 months ago by [Rolf Allard van Hagen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ravanh/). * Anonymous User 3392934 * (@anonymized-3392934) * [7 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cannot-deconnect-jetpack/#post-10587462) * Hey there, [@ravanh](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ravanh/)! * Thank you for contacting us about this connection issue. Two things make it clear your caching plugin is causing issues: * – You disconnected Jetpack. You know you disconnected Jetpack. WordPress.com shows your site is disconnected. **Your site still thinks it’s connected?!** – Response of `xmlrpc.php` is including comments from your caching plugin: * – [http://pomclic.fr/xmlrpc.php](http://pomclic.fr/xmlrpc.php) * > in 2,091 seconds.–> > for more details–> * Please temporarily deactivate this plugin. If you are able to connect Jetpack, the plugin is conflicting with our connection. The output of `xmlrpc.php` should not include whitespace or additional characters; this will break Jetpack’s connection. Depending on the caching plugin’s settings, you may be able to exclude `xmlrpc. php` from caching. * Please let us know if you still have issues after temporarily deactivating your caching plugin, or if we can help with anything else! 🙂 - This reply was modified 7 years, 10 months ago by Anonymous User 3392934. - This reply was modified 7 years, 10 months ago by Anonymous User 3392934.

That should not be happening. I’ll investigate why this comment is added there… And report back 🙂 * Thread Starter [Rolf Allard van Hagen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ravanh/) * (@ravanh) * [7 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cannot-deconnect-jetpack/#post-10601746) * Thanks @mzakariya you were right! * The timestamp comment should not appear there as the xmlrpc response is not actually cached… The quick fix: turn of the timestamp option in the Nginx Helper settings and Jetpack starts behaving like normal again 🙂 * I’ve reported the issue here [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/nginx-helper-timestamp-and-xmlrpc-resonse/](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/nginx-helper-timestamp-and-xmlrpc-resonse/) Viewing 4 replies - 1 through 4 (of 4 total) The topic ‘Cannot deconnect Jetpack’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://ps.w.org/jetpack/assets/icon.svg?rev=2819237) * [Jetpack - WP Security, Backup, Speed, & Growth](https://wordpress.org/plugins/jetpack/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/jetpack/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/jetpack/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/jetpack/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/jetpack/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/jetpack/reviews/) ## Tags * [caching](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/caching/) * [connection](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/connection/) * [xmlrpc](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/xmlrpc/) * 4 replies * 2 participants * Last reply from: [Rolf Allard van Hagen](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ravanh/) * Last activity: [7 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cannot-deconnect-jetpack/#post-10601746) * Status: resolved
