What it does
Shoppers often open a product, get distracted and then struggle to find it again. This plugin keeps a record of the products each visitor has viewed and shows that list back to them in places you choose, such as the home page, the cart page, the account area or any widget area. Lists are stored in your site's database, so a logged in customer can see the same history on a different browser or device.
Placement works through shortcodes and widgets. You can create as many custom shortcodes as you need, each with its own number of products, sorting order, optional related products and an optional slider layout. A separate most viewed products list highlights popular items. For follow up, the plugin can send automatic reminder emails after a delay you set, with custom text and discount coupons tied to the viewed products. It requires WooCommerce and is configured from a settings panel without code.
Best for
- WooCommerce stores with large product catalogs
- Shops that want browsing-based reminder emails with coupons
- Store owners who prefer configuring features without code

Questions about YITH Recently Viewed Products
Does this plugin work without WooCommerce?
No. YITH Recently Viewed Products is built for WooCommerce and requires it. It tracks views of WooCommerce products and displays them on store pages such as the cart, home page and account area.
Can I control where the recently viewed list appears?
Yes. You can add it with shortcodes or widgets to the home page, cart page, account area or any widget-ready area. Each custom shortcode can have its own product count, sorting, related products option and slider setting.
Will customers see their history on another device?
The plugin stores viewed product lists in your site's database, so the history can stay consistent across different browsers and devices for the same customer instead of relying only on one browser.

After a delay you specify, the plugin automatically emails shoppers about products they viewed. You can write your own message and include discount coupons related to those products to encourage them to come back and buy.
