How to run Jetpack from localhost? [closed]

Add this to your wp-config.php:

const JETPACK_DEV_DEBUG = TRUE;

This makes it possible to use features on localhost that don’t require a connection to wordpress.com. See the announcement post on jetpack.me for the background.

For your own plugins, learn that lesson: Do not rely on working outgoing connections. Respect your users privacy, and explain in clear words why such a connection is necessary, what data will be sent, and how to work with the plugin when the connection fails. In other words: Don’t do it the Jetpack way.
