Magento2 – Apply Slick Slider to Recently Viewed Widget

layoutmagento2requirejstemplatewidgets

I have created a code but slider is not showing up in recently viewed products.

Here is my code –

I have downloaded slick js and css from the following link http://kenwheeler.github.io/slick/

Then i have done the following –

Step 1 –

Copied slick.min.js and slick.js in

app/design/frontend/_YOUR_VENDOR_/_YOUR_THEME_/web/js/

Step 2 –

Create requirejs-config.js file in

app/design/frontend/_YOUR_VENDOR_/_YOUR_THEME_/web/

with the following code in requirejs-config.js

    var config = {
    paths: {
        slick:        'js/slick'
    },
    shim: {
        slick: {
            deps: ['jquery']
        }
    }
};

Step 3 –

Copied slick.less and slick-theme.less in

app/design/frontend/_YOUR_VENDOR_/_YOUR_THEME_/web/css/source/

Step 4 –

Clear cache and deploy files

Step 5 –

Created viewed_grid.phtml in

app/design/frontend/_YOUR_VENDOR_/YOUR_THEME/Magento_Reports/view/frontend/templates/widget/viewed/content

with the following code –

<?php
/**
 * @var $block \Magento\Reports\Block\Product\Viewed

<?php
if ($exist = ($block->getRecentlyViewedProducts() && $block->getRecentlyViewedProducts()->getSize())) {
    $type = 'widget-viewed';
    $mode = 'grid';

    $type = $type . '-' . $mode;

    $image = 'recently_viewed_products_grid_content_widget';
    $title = __('Recently Viewed');
    $items = $block->getRecentlyViewedProducts();

    $showWishlist = true;
    $showCompare = true;
    $showCart = true;
    $rating = 'short';
    $description = ($mode == 'list') ? true : false;

Step 6 –

Clear cache and deploy files again

But the slider is still not showing up for recently viewed products in frontend

Please help me in correcting the code or creating a module to show recently viewed product with slick slider 🙂

Best Answer

Incase anyone else needs to do this, here's what I did for Magento 2.3.2. The Recently Viewed widget gets added via knockout, which fires after all the other javascript. So to apply slick I had to use the "afterRender" custom binding.

Once I found which knockout template and viewmodel js recently viewed products used it was pretty straight forward. Here's my code:

Copy vendor/magento/module-catalog/view/base/web/js/product/list/listing.js to your theme like app/design/frontend/[Vendor]/[Theme]/Magento_Catalog/web/js/product/list/listing.js

Make sure jquery/slick is added to the top of the script file, like so (this is assuming you've already added them to require-config.js):

define([
    'ko',
    'underscore',
    'Magento_Ui/js/grid/listing',
    'jquery',
    'slick'
], function (ko, _, Listing, $) {

Add a new function like so:

pdpRvSlickInit: function(){
        $('.block-viewed-products-grid .product-items').slick({
            dots: false,
            infinite: true,
            speed: 300,
            slidesToShow: 3,
            slidesToScroll: 3,
            responsive: [
                {
                    breakpoint: 960,
                    settings: {
                        slidesToShow: 2,
                        slidesToScroll: 2
                    }
                }
            ]
        });
    }

Now copy the knockout HTML template to your theme. Copy /vendor/magento/module-catalog/view/base/web/template/product/list/listing.html to app/design/frontend/[Vendor]/[Theme]/Magento_Catalog/web/template/product/list/listing.html I added a new Div, but I'm not sure you need to do that. I added this:

<div class="clear" data-bind="afterRender: pdpRvSlickInit"></div>

Before the last closing div. Hope that helps.
