Use cases
Key features
What the element does, in plain terms. Every individual control is listed in the settings reference below.
How it works
Record and display split
A lightweight site-wide recorder runs on every frontend page load and writes to localStorage. The display element only reads and renders, so page HTML stays cache-safe.
Exclusions
Skip post types and specific post IDs. WooCommerce cart, checkout, and account pages are excluded by default, and admin pages are never recorded.
Presentation
Three layouts
A vertical list, a responsive grid of one to four columns, or compact inline chips.
Card styling
Bordered, shadow, or minimal presets, with an optional featured image and a placeholder fallback image parameter.
Empty behaviour
Either hide the element entirely or show a configurable message.
Builder demo cards
Sample recent pages appear only in Avada Builder and Live for layout work. They are never written to storage and never shown to visitors.
Settings reference
Every setting the element exposes, grouped by builder tab. Options are listed where the setting offers a fixed set of choices.
Layout General tab
Layout
List · Grid · Inline chips
List suits sidebars, grid suits wide sections, and inline chips suit a compact strip under a header.
Grid columns
1 to 4
Cards per row in grid layout. This is a simple range rather than the full shared responsive columns helper.
Number of items
How many recent pages to display, drawn from the visitor’s stored history.
Featured image
On · Off
Shows the stored thumbnail for each page.
Placeholder image
A fallback image used when a page has no featured image, or when the stored URL no longer resolves.
Time ago line
On · Off
Shows how long ago the page was viewed.
Recording and exclusions General tab
Excluded post types
Post types that are never recorded, for sensitive or transactional content.
Excluded post IDs
Specific pages that are never recorded, for example a checkout confirmation.
WooCommerce exclusions
