Can you change the output of the milestone widget?
-
I’m using milestone widget to display time until an event, the event is four months away, the widget is displaying in months but I’d quite like to show the answer in days, can it be changed?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

That’s not possible. See here for using the Milestone widget http://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/milestone-widget/

The widget displays number of days only if the interval is less than one month, otherwise it displays number of months.

Thanks, amazingly fast answer, and what I suspected, just starting to learn my way around.

The milestone widget output has been a sore spot with many of us for several years – some of the time it gives strange answers that are not all that helpful

You’re welcome. Note that Upcoming Events is a widget and a shortcode. It allows you to use an iCalendar link to display a list of events on your WordPress.com site.
