PartSyncer Recently Viewed Products

Changelog

1.7.1

• Internal cleanup: no functional changes. Author/branding fields updated, and readme now documents this plugin’s privacy stance (no server-side data collection) and the WooCommerce trademark notice.

1.7.0

• New “Category filtering” setting: on a product category page, only show recently-viewed items that belong to that category or one of its parent categories (e.g. only recently-viewed Transmission parts show on the Transmission category page). Off by default; only applies to items recorded while it’s turned on.

1.6.2

• Fixed: clicking “Add to cart” a second time on a low-stock item (e.g. only 1 available) could fail and redirect to the product page with an error, because WooCommerce only reduces its displayed stock count at checkout, not at add-to-cart — so the button still looked available. The button now shows a disabled “Added” state after a successful add instead of staying clickable.
• Live stock/price data is no longer served from a stale cache immediately after an add-to-cart, so any real change (another shopper buying the last unit, a stock update) shows up right away.

1.6.1

• The “Add to cart” button now uses a 5px corner radius (was a full pill) and always defaults to white text for better contrast on a coloured background.

1.6.0

• Redesigned each item’s layout: image, title, SKU/part number, price and a colour-coded stock badge (amber when low, green otherwise, threshold from WooCommerce’s own “notify at” stock setting) are now laid out cleanly side by side — no more crowding.
• The “Add to cart” button is now a pill with a small cart icon, and shorter (“Add”).
• The popup panel header now shows a clock icon and a subtitle (“N parts · saved for N days” / “kept until you clear it”).
• Everything still restyles via --psrv-* CSS variables, so a theme can recolour it (including a full dark-mode popup, as PartSyncer’s own theme now does) without touching the plugin.

1.5.1

• Fixed the price and stock text overlapping in the list layout and the popup panel — each item now uses a small grid (image, title, then price/stock/add-to-cart each in their own column) instead of cramming everything into one row.
• Stock text is now a small coloured badge for better visibility.

1.5.0

• The floating button can now sit at the top, middle or bottom of its screen edge (previously bottom only).
• An “Add to cart” button on each item (simple, in-stock, purchasable products only — others link to the product page instead), added via AJAX with no page reload.
• Live stock availability text (e.g. “5 in stock”) on each item, checked against the WooCommerce Store API.
• An individual remove (×) button on every item, with an Undo toast, so a single product can be dropped from the history without clearing everything.

1.4.0

• Elementor widget: “Recently Viewed Products” is now available in the Elementor editor, alongside the shortcode and block.
• List layout option, in addition to carousel and grid.
• Sort order option: most recent (default), newest first, random, price low-to-high, or price high-to-low.
• Option to exclude free (zero-price) products from being recorded and shown.

1.3.0

• Optional floating corner button + popup panel (like the familiar “recently viewed” bubble pattern), showing the full history with its own Clear/Undo. Position and edge offset are configurable, so it won’t collide with a chat or WhatsApp bubble from another plugin.
• The inline strip gains a “View all” link when there are more items than fit inline (floating mode only).
• Classic (non-block) widget added, for older themes and widget areas.
• Accessibility: the popup panel traps focus while open.
• Basic RTL groundwork: layout uses flex/grid flow (no hardcoded text direction); the floating button’s screen corner is a deliberate position choice and does not flip with text direction, matching how similar corner widgets behave.

1.2.0

• Cross-tab sync: the strip stays in sync between tabs.
• “Clear” now shows an Undo toast instead of clearing silently.
• The out-of-stock check now caches Store API responses for a few minutes (sessionStorage).
• Developer event: psrv:product-recorded (document-level CustomEvent, for analytics integrations).

1.1.0

• Choose where the strip appears: product pages, the cart page (classic or block), and/or shop & category pages.
• Layout option: carousel or a grid with a configurable column count.
• Option to hide products that are now out of stock (checked against the WooCommerce Store API).
• Optional “forget after N days”, and a “Clear” link on the strip.

1.0.0

• Initial release.
