BuddyPress.org

After completely removing IntenseDebate from the system, the default comment system is back on the main blog, but still completely gone from member blogs, even blogs created after removal of the plugin.

Is there any way to reset the member blogs without having to reinstall the entire site? How can a plugin kill an entire component like that? Where does the plugin “turn off” the default comment system? Is there a way to force comments_template() to load?

Installing Disqus did not fix the problem. Deactivated and deleted again.

Is there a setting in the database that turns off comments?
