Note: For reference, as of this post, the current version of WordPress is 4.2.1 and the current version of the Jetpack plugin is 3.5.
Problem: WordPress/Jetpack Error – “Something has gotten mixed up!”
Here is the full WordPress/Jetpack error message that appears at the top of your WordPress admin/dashboard area, stating that “Something has gotten mixed up!”:
Something has gotten mixed up!
Your siteurl option is set up as https://techuserfriendly.com, but your WordPress.com connection lists it as 0!
Your home option is set up as https://techuserfriendly.com, but your WordPress.com connection lists it as 1!The data listed above is not for my current site. Please disconnect, and then form a new connection to WordPress.com for this site using my current settings.
Ignore the difference. This is just a staging site for the real site referenced above.
That used to be my URL for this site before I changed it. Update the WordPress.com Cloud’s data to match my current settings.
Solution: Disconnect/Reconnect Jetpack from WordPress.com
From the Jetpack support forum on WordPress.org:
- Go to the Jetpack admin/dashboard area.
- Scroll to the bottom and click “Disconnect from WordPress.com”.
Now, you have disconnected Jetpack from WordPress.com.
- Click to re-connect Jetpack to WordPress.com.
- Enter you WordPress.com username and password to authorize the connection.
- You have now re-connected Jetpack to WordPress.com and you should no longer see the “Something has gotten mixed up!” error message.
