Question
We use a custommenu.phtml to show recently view items via a popup block.
<div id="pt_menu_pt_item_menu_4" class="pt_menu">
<div class="parentMenu">
<span class="block-title">Recently Viewed</span>
</div>
<div id="popup_pt_item_menu_4" class="popup cmsblock" style="display: none;">
<div class="block3" id="block2_pt_item_menu_4">
<div>
<?php echo $this->getLayout()->createBlock('reports/product_widget_viewed')->setTemplate('reports/widget/viewed/content/viewed_grid.phtml')->toHtml(); ?>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Everything works great except we do not need the whole <div>
to show when these is no recently viewed product.
I tried wrapping the whole div
with the following:
<?php if ($_products = $this->getRecentlyViewedProducts()): ?>
<?php endif>
but the whole div
disappears whether we have viewed products or not.
How do I achieve this?
Solution
Try with the condition
<?php if($products = Mage::getSingleton('Mage_Reports_Block_Product_Viewed')->getItemsCollection()): ?>
<?php endif; ?>

OTHER TIPS
the following code does the trick, just for the records.
<?php $products = Mage::getSingleton('Mage_Reports_Block_Product_Viewed')->getItemsCollection(); ?>
<?php if(count($products)>0): ?>
<?php endif?>
