    Hi there

    Just attempting to store and use the last 5 page id’s in a session. Being new to it I’m stuck and can only get it to print the current page id. ie it’s not storing the previous ones in the array. Am I doing something obviously wrong 

    global $wp_query;
$post=$wp_query->get_queried_object();

session_start();
is_array($_SESSION["last_5_urls"]) or $_SESSION["last_5_urls"] = array();

$_SESSION["last_5_urls"][] = $post->ID;
// This appends it right onto an array.

$_SESSION["last_5_urls"] = array_slice($_SESSION["last_5_urls"], -5);

Print_r ($_SESSION["last_5_urls"]);

    Any pointers appreciated. Thanks.

    Got it working by splitting the above code ie. placing the session in the ‘header.php’ then printing it where needed in the sidebar. From there you can use the post id’s to display what you need.

    Thanks
