   restore the files back to what they were before I altered them. Now the jetpack
   plugin gives me the following error:
 * Jetpack could not contact WordPress.com: register_http_request_failed
 * I have run the Jetpack compatibility test. PLEASE HELP!!

 * We’ve now fixed the issue, you should be able to connect your site to your WordPress.
   com account.
 * If you still experience issues, can you please use Jetpack’s Debugger module 
   to send us some more information about your site?
 * 1) Go to the Jetpack page in your dashboard.
    2) Click on the Debug link appearing
   at the bottom of the page. 3) Click the link that says “click here to contact
   Jetpack support.” 4) Fill in the description box and your name and email address.
   5) Click the “Contact Support” button.
 * Thanks!

 * This was hosted with web.com and I could not get any help from them as this is
   a ‘third party’ piece of software (speaking of WP)…which is total BS as they 
   offer WP as an auto install anyway.
 * I moved it to one of my other servers that I control for dev and it works fine
   just like my other WP/JP installs. I’ve notified my client that he needs to move
   or host with me but that web.com isn’t going to help.
 * My theory is that it’s either some sort of firewall rule they have in place or
   a curl issue. Either way, it works fine on my server, not a JP issue.
