I see that users of MT Pro have a "Select a Widget" drop-down on the right and left columns to add widgets such as "Most Popular Entries," etc.
This is great except that it doesn't work out of the box, nor can I find any documentation on these features.
Can someone direct me to more information on how to make these "value-added" features?
Thanks.

Thanks. I'm not sure if these are the same widgets that run in the dashboard only. I'm familiar with MT widgets that appear on the website.
For instance, how does a widget determine a "most read" or most popular entry?
OK, after more considerable searching I've found this documentation.

Now I'm going to start pouring through some code to figure out why these "default" widgets (Most Popular Entries, etc.) don't work out of the box.
