The link to the forum discussion on the milestone widget seems to indicate that there is simply no solution: why is this acceptable?
Why does WordPress offer a widget that doesn't work?
Would you be good enough to pass on my question, please? - surely there must be a staff support response to a non-functional widget ...?

I always enter some terms into the search box before posting; but the problem is that one usually gets a bewilderingly large result that doesn't in the short term show what one seeks.
I shall now check those links.
Much obliged!

Is it the widget?
Is it the theme in which the widget is set?
Is it me?
