I am curious as to how to remove a site from the network once it is included? There might come a time/reason when it is necessary and it would be interesting to know how

I ask because I cannot remove my testing site yet, it was deactivated as soon as I set the main one up with 2.x.x but it still shows up. Or is it sort of deactivated but takes a few days to disappear?

I think that site deactivation works in one way, it means that your site have empty network slots and deactivated network, but it responds to network requests of other sites.
So your site is still visible to others and ready for networking.
And it appears in live network, because someone from this network have your test site address.
Maybe this path:
your main site has site http://quailrunphoto.com/author/quailrunphotocableone-net/,
it has test site
http://fotostocki.pl/symbiotest/
and this site has your test in the list, so it is still found...

there should be a red x (to delete) near the url in the symbio/network list - or were you referring to something else?

I have been trying to stop my testing site appearing in network and directories and have just thought of a way to do it, reinstall v1.x.x

Maybe go to ftp and delete symbiocard.csv from wp main directory, then rescan your network.

Your site is inactive, but it has symbiocard.csv in main folder and this symbiocard has tulip... address inside

I think that deactivating network should remove symbiocard file.

Right, so it was a bug, because after I reactivated it before there was 0 sites linked.
I did the same again and now it's empty, will see if that helps.

Although If network is deactivated SY shouldn't use this site.

I deactivated network in my test site, deleted symbiocard.csv, and it is again in folder

To remove test sites from the network (at least to stop them from getting updated) simply delete the wordpress install. Perhaps I can put a "noindex" option in Symbiocards later...for now its not a huge issue.

I've activated other wp theme, deleted symbiocard, and now site is inactive, but someone still have it linked, so there is mesage"404 @http://ajotte.com/symbiotest/symbiocard.csv Aborting site..." when scanning.

Just got this email from my test site, which has network DEACTIVATED

"Public image and tag info updated. Network has been scanned and directory updated. - 2013-05-30 12:06:16"

Looks it's still alive

Now you see what I am getting at

I am currently editing css and find it safer not to do it on live site so am using my test site, after which I am going to deactivate Symbiostock, not just the theme
