the Past Articles is showing (0) for reads for each story, even though I know the storys have been read by ppl, how can I get the number to change to the correct number?

read count only increments when people click 'read more' or the 'comment' link, so are you sure people have been clicking the link?

I have the same problem - a story with 300 reads shows just 0 reads when listed as a Past Article... it would be more logical to add the new click-throughs to the old total reads, not start them from zero again... is it possible to do this?

yes I know ppl have read them as they are on the front page and I can see read 3 times or 8 times as soon as they go to past articles it says (0)

even if I read them from the past articles it still says (0) I want/need to make it so they change to the right number of reads

maybe its a bug, hopefully one of the devs will comment *waits patiently*

Not a bug just an incorrect assumption. The number in brackets is not the number of reads but the number of comments on the article.

To change it to the number of reads open includes/blocks/past.php. On line 113 (PN .726) change

$info[comments]
