Wordpress Jetpack Activate Missing Modules
If you use Jetpack on your WordPress site, you may have noticed the option to individually activate and deactivate specific Jetpack modules isn’t obviously exposed in the current Jetpack dashboard — the modern UI focuses on a curated feature list rather than the older full module grid.

Getting to the Full Module List

Jetpack still exposes its classic, complete module management screen — you just need to browse to it directly rather than clicking through the redesigned dashboard:
https://yoursite.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=jetpack_modules
This shows every available Jetpack module with individual Activate/Deactivate toggles, including ones not surfaced as a headline feature in the main Jetpack screen.

Alternative: WP-CLI

If you manage the site via SSH/WP-CLI, you can activate or deactivate a specific module directly:
wp jetpack module activate module-slug
wp jetpack module deactivate module-slug
wp jetpack module list
wp jetpack module list shows every module’s slug and current status, which is the easiest way to find the exact slug to target. Jetpack’s admin UI has changed a fair amount across versions, so if the direct URL above doesn’t show what you expect on your installed version, the WP-CLI route is the more version-independent option.

Where It Lives Now (Updated for 2026)

The direct jetpack_modules URL above still works in current Jetpack versions, but Automattic quietly moved its footer link out of the main plugin UI some time ago. If you’d rather navigate there than type the URL, the current path is My Jetpack > Help tab > Useful links > “All Jetpack modules”. The redesigned My Jetpack dashboard is now the primary interface for everyone, with this classic toggle grid kept around as a secondary, less-discoverable page rather than being removed outright. One caveat worth knowing: on a handful of installs the page can become inaccessible unless the JETPACK_DEV_DEBUG constant is defined, so if the URL 404s or redirects unexpectedly, that’s worth checking first. The WP-CLI commands (wp jetpack module list, activate, deactivate) remain fully current and documented, and are still the more version-independent route if the admin UI keeps shifting around underneath you — just don’t run them with --skip-plugins, which breaks them.
