    Hey Justin,

    Here’s how to leave everything on that Jetpack offers but only disable Jetpack Comments:

    1. Click the Learn More button on the left side. Notice that the Configure button changes into Deactivate.
    2. Now click the Deactivate button (that was previously named Configure).

    Jetpack Comments are now disabled while the other features are still enabled.

    Let me know if you run into more problems.

    I have the same problem and finally figured out it was Jetpack Comments. I logged my issue here: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/comment-posted-to-wrong-blog-post?replies=1

    Basically I can’t use this feature. Maybe it messes things up when a blog already has existing comments made when this plugin did not yet exist.

    At any rate, it’s a serious issue and hope it will get fixed at some point.

    I found out what is causing this issue, but I don’t have a solution yet. So I’m just posting this here if anyone will ever run into this problem.

    I did as I mentioned in the previous post, just basically reinstalled everything (deleted both WordPress files from server (everything, admin and content) and also deleted the database. Then created a new database and imported my posts, settings, widgets, the works, including the general settings not saved by the WordPress exporter (saved those in screen captures).

    Long story short, the Jetpack plugin is causing this bug, because when I turn it off the issue goes away.

    I know no one’s going to comment on this post because probably no one has run into this issue, and/or doesn’t have a solution, but just in case anyone ever does, my solution is to disable the Jetpack Commenting plugin, but keep everything else from Jetpack on.

    I have reply notifications for this thread on, so I will be notified if anyone runs into this and has a solution; so if you have one, please share so I can enable this Jetpack feature in the future again.

    Cheers

    Well, I spoke too soon. This didn’t fix it for me. I thought it was fixed but it happened again later. As soon as I tick Settings > Discussion > Other comment settings > Users must be registered and logged in to comment then the issue starts.

    I’m going to backup my data and reinstall WordPress, then import my posts and settings. I’m glad that the menus and such are also exported by WordPress’ Export feature, even Contact Form 7 forms are exported. For widgets there is a plugin available: http://wordpress.org/plugins/widget-importer-exporter/

    I fixed this problem just now. For anyone in the future finding this post through a search engine or something, here’s how solved this:

    1. First back up your entire site so if something goes wrong you can restore it with one click.
    2. Make sure your site is updated to the latest version of WordPress (not a beta release).
    3. Log in to your FTP containing your WordPress site.
    4. In the root directory (usually public_html) delete the wp-admin and wp-includes folders in their entirety (meaning the two folders and all of the folders and files they contain). DO NOT delete the wp-content folder.

    5. Download the latest version of WordPress from wordpress.org, unzip the file, browse to the wordpress folder in it, and then copy wp-admin and wp-includes over to your public_html folder.

    This fixed it for me.
