# WordPress.com Stats: Post-Installation handling

 * I had the WordPress.com Stats plugin installed on 2 blogs (Testing Blog – local/
   Regular Blog – public) using the same API key. When I uninstalled the plugin 
   from the test blog, my Stats Dashboard kept reading traffic from it, which wouldn’t
   be a problem if it wasn’t shown in the very same tab as the public blog’s statistics(
   the drop down menu reads:
 * > [public blog’s URL]/[test blog URL]
 * .
 * It seems to me the reference to the stats module is still somewhere in the test
   blog’s database. Any idea of how to get rid of it there?
 * Thanks in advance

 * The test blog will exist in the wordpress.com database regardless of what you
   do to your own WordPress installation. There may be a way to remove these from
   your account in the future.
