Display recently viewed products under Customer account

Hi there!

Thanks for contacting us.

I understand you are looking to add Recently Viewed Products under “My Accounts” dashboard.

The only thing I was able to think of here, to achieve this without using a plugin, is:

1) Create a widget area in “My Accounts” section

You could create a widget area at any location you’d like to: Hooks for My Account page.

Here’s how to create a widget area.

2) Use the “Recently Viewed Products list” widget

You could then use the “Recently Viewed Products list” widget which is provided in WooCommerce by default, in the Appearance > Widgets screen.

I’m going to leave this thread open for a bit to see if anyone else is able to chime in to help you out with other ideas.

I can also recommend the WooCommerce Developer Resources Portal for resources on developing for WooCommerce.

You can also visit the WooCommerce Facebook group or the #developers channel of the WooCommerce Community Slack. We’re lucky to have a great community of open-source developers for WooCommerce, and many of our developers hang out there, as well.

I hope this helps! ??

hey Kaushik,

tnx for your reply, your solution seems good, but what im looking for is to hook “Recently Viewed Products list” into my account dashboard, i already succeed with “on sale” with this code :

add_action( ‘woocommerce_account_dashboard’,’on_sale_dashboard_shortcode’ );
function on_sale_dashboard_shortcode () {
echo do_shortcode(“[sale_products limit=’10’ row=’1′ columns=’5′ visibility=’new’ orderby=’rand’]”);
}

but it doesn’t seem to work with “Recently Viewed Products list”, the code im trying to use is :

add_action( ‘woocommerce_account_dashboard’,’recently_viewed_products_dashboard_shortcode’ );
function recently_viewed_products_dashboard_shortcode () {
echo do_shortcode(“[recently_viewed_products limit=’10’ row=’1′ columns=’5′ visibility=’new’ orderby=’rand’]”);
}

maybe i’m messing something or doing it wrong, i’m not good.

thank you.

Hello @perflexo,
