 * My site is 1 year old.
 * I have installed the plugin 2 days ago. Right now total views are those accumulated
   since 2 days.
 * Is there a way for the plugin to get the total views since last year?
 * thanks

 * No, since the plugin only retrieves the data it tracks and WordPress doesn’t 
   store views by default.

 * Now, on the bottom of posts on the editing screen there is a Top 10 small dashboard,
   where there is Visit count: … It allows to enter any number. What is this for?
   for some articles, even when I put 5000, they are not seen among most popular(
   max 500) since the plugin still takes into account the visits from its installation
   day which was 3 days ago.

 * The count session there is for the overall count and not the daily count. If 
   you’re using the widget you need to choose overall and not custom period

 * I want to have both of them on the same page. I am using [tptn_list daily=”1″
   daily_range=”1″] for daily views and [tptn_list] for overall views. But the last
   one show the articles with most views from several days and does not take into
   account the count session.

 * [tptn_list] will display the overall count.
 * Please clear the cache if you’re updating the count.

 * ok thanks
 * But I have another question.
 * I manually entered total views from google analytics thinking that Top 10 will
   add new views to this number. But this number hasn’t changed since several days.
 * Is there anyway to make Top 10 add new views to this manually inserted number?

 * Where did you manually insert these? Were these in the post metabox at the bottom
   of each post edit screen?
