  Hi there

  I have a milestone widget on my site – Currently it is showing countdown in months which is quite useless considering the countdown is a bit far away in future – is there anyway to show it in days? http://www.cfatutor.me

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

  When the event in question is quite some time away, it will first start in months and will switch to days once the interval is less than a month.

  As it says in Panos’ tutorial:

  Paste shortcode into text widget or html post/page editor.
