Recently Viewed module (v1.0)

Recently Viewed extension creates a module on your Joomla website that displays pages visited by a user recently. It has several settings - you can display articles only, all pages available on site or even set a custom group of pages that this module should display when they are viewed.

Another nice setting - you select yourself how many pages should be displayed in the module maximum.

This extension is ideal when you sell goods or services and use Joomla articles as product/service page rather that a shopping cart extension (like we do on our website). In this case set the URLs of your products' or services' pages in this module and your users while browsing will also have a list of products they have viewed for them to come back easily.
