Magento Also Viewed Products

Magento module that displays products, viewed by visitors, who viewed this product. It can also show recommendations based on viewed, compared and shopping cart products (see widget section).

Please read the wiki if you are searching for installation or integration instructions.

How it works?

Every time the client is looking at some product, module update relations between this and other viewed products. Day after day relations count are grows and they become more accurate.

Can I control the relations?

Yes, store administrator can manually create, change relation sort order or even disable relation to hide it from the frontend.

Configuration

Module configuration provides ability to show Also Viewed Products in one of the following containers:

• Left or Right column
• Product additional information

Please note, that your theme is responsible to output the required container.

Each of the sections has options that allows to configure title, list mode, products count, columns count (in case of grid mode) and image dimensions.

• Perfomance
