Hi there, i just installed this plugin, yet neither of the sections are showing up on my single product page. Does the page need a hook or something for them to show?
Just inserting the shortcode in the PHP file displays the actual shortcode text.
Thanks

Hi, you need to check the Enable recently viewed product and Enable most viewed product on plugin settings in order to show recently viewed and most viewed products on product detail page and also products show only when products are viewed.
Thanks
