In order to make this as easy and "Idiot" free, I have created a folder with a readme and the compiled code into the correct file name to enable easier use of this module.

I hope that this is alright with suzkaw, if not I'm sure he'll remove this post.

Cheers,

Thanks Mike! I added your zip file to the first post just in case someone misses it.

Hi,
I have working fine. But on some of my listings the titles are long. It then looks like this http://everythingsfree.org/image//im...ntlyviewed.jpg and as you can see stretches the table making it look very bad. Is there a way to make it only use the first say 10 digits then just put ... at the end?
Cheers

How hard would this be to convert into showing other items from this seller?
Any ideas or anyone interested in coding it?
Cheers

How do I add a header such as "Recently Viewed" to top of this module?

	<tr>
	  <th colspan="4"><strong>Featured</strong></th>
	</tr>

This will make the blue bar.

Its not working for me and I feel like an idiot for asking dumb questions but in which files do I insert this code into? Is it in the file "function.last_viewed.php" or above the code "{last_viewed number=5 cols=1}"?

Hi,
I only just seen the message sorry for the delay.
Add it above {last_viewed number=5 cols=1}
