  I do not have the customization version of the theme but am wondering if it is possible to change the milestone widget countdown from displaying 1 month to the amount of days (event is November 29th, today is October 2nd and the widget is displaying “1 month to go”).

  Thanks in advance!

  No that’s not the way the widget is designed to operate.

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

  Thanks so much for the response – in your second reply are you saying that when the interval is LESS THAN one month it will switch to days? I was hoping that that would be the case. AND I just realized that there are actually TWO months left to go NOT the one month that it is displaying now. Is this a bug?

  I will also check out the alternatives that you have suggested (thank you).
