 * Ever since the last update the post view count quit working. Where can I get 
   an earlier version of BAWS?

 * I ended up getting it to work by going in to the settings > post views count 
   > check the box “Will be displayed in bottom of content.”
 * Because I only want to view the count in the admin area and not on the front-
   end I included this CSS:
 * /**Baw Post Views**/
    .bawpvc-ajax-counter { display: none; }
 * Apparently the developer changed something. I’ve been using BAW for a couple 
   of years and until the updates that occurred this month, I never had any issues
   and never needed to go in to the settings.
 * I have 2 sites this happened on with 2 different themes, so I don’t think it 
   is a theme issue.

 * Sorry skeeterz71, i edited your CSS code as below for better.
 * /**Baw Post Views**/
    .bawpvc-ajax-counter{ display: none !important }
 * This should solve haft the problem because the counter still appears in some 
   places.

 * Great!. I didn’t think to add !important because my 2 themes didn’t require it.
   Some themes may require it though.
 * Using the above example don’t forget to add the closing ;
 * The poster forgot to include it in his example.

 * I got the final working solution:
 * 1. **To enable the counter**, working as usual:
    Dashboard/ Settings/ Post View
   Counts Tick Display counter in post content box.
 * 2. Add the custom CSS as below to **hide the counter appear in post content**:
   (
   thanks to skeeterz71)
 * /**Baw Post Views**/
    .bawpvc-ajax-counter{ display: none !important; }
 * 3. To somebody the** counter still appear in excerpt or widget**:
 * Go to Dashboard/ Settings/ Post View Counts/
    Leave the Count Format field box**
   BLANK**
