  The widget is drawing from the wrong field when Read books is the selected criteria. It should draw from the ‘date finished’ field. Instead it is drawing from the ‘date added’ field. Can this be fixed?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  I did look at the guide, but it doesn’t have a solution to the problem. Whoever programmed the widget just pointed at the wrong “date” field. It should look to “date finished” and not “date added”.
