go to the dashboard then advanced and choose how many you want to show.

@pinguisl entre al dashboard y avanzado y escoja cuantos quiere mostrar

That's not the problem is that it show -1 on the right. I don't know why.

The reason it shows '-1' in some of the discussions is that there are no comments yet on those discussions. I think it's something technical and I hope it's a plugin that shows those numbers, so it can be easily fixed.
The problem is : You need to do some digging in PHP code, are you ready for that?

It's the Voting plugin, But I don't know how to fix it.

in the class.voting.plugin.php

/**
     * Insert sorting tabs after first comment.
     */
    public function DiscussionController_BeforeCommentDisplay_Handler($Sender) {
//      if (!C('Plugins.Voting.Enabled'))
//          return;

        $AnswerCount = $Sender->Discussion->CountComments - 1;
        $Type = GetValue('Type', $Sender->EventArguments, 'Comment');
        if ($Type == 'Comment' && !GetValue('VoteHeaderWritten', $Sender)) { //$Type != 'Comment' && $AnswerCount > 0) {

Change the -1 to 0

try looking class.voting.plugin.php

This is just an idea. It may work for you and it may not.

maybe changing this around line 94:

Gdn_Format::BigNumber($Discussion->CountComments - 1)

to

Gdn_Format::BigNumber($Discussion->CountComments)

Fixed Thanks to everybody

You know it is actually funny that there could be a negative number of comments, kind of like, "You have less than 0 comments. -1=Pathetic...." lol
