How to stop piwik from tracking local development website (2 replies)

I just installed piwik on my server and placed the tracking code on my website. Everything is working fine, except that piwik is tracking traffic from both my live website http://example.com and also my local dev environment which is http://local/example/

Is there any way to tell piwik to track only data from http://example.com and ignore all else?

Right now, a web page like http://example.com/subfolder/index.html is tracked as /subfolder/index.html, and on my local machine http://local/example/subfolder/index.html is also being tracked by Piwik as /example/subfolder/index.html

In settings, I have set URL to example.com

I would rather not have to manually exclude IPs because I travel frequently, and don't want to keep adding new IPs whenever I work from a new location.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Steve
