Magento Recently Viewed Products for non logged users

I'm using default magento 1.9.x Recently Viewed Products block on a CMS page
{{block type="reports/product_viewed" template="reports/product_viewed.phtml"}}
But default magento Recently Viewed Products block only support for logged in users, so it only show when i logged in
I checked the file
/public_html/app/code/core/Mage/Reports/Block/Product/Abstract.php
and It's line number 138 function set a customer id for product collection for filter the results.
But i think normal site visitors not have that kind of id.
if ($this->getCustomerId()) {
$this->_collection->setCustomerId($this->getCustomerId());
}
Anyone know how to get recently viewed products by setting an id to above or by using another way.
i also tried this answer but it didn't work at all

Magento: Show Visitor's Recently Viewed Product

This question is somehow related to my previous question. I want the "recently viewed" section to show the products which are recently viewed by my (as a visitor). So in that way, every visitor will see their recently viewed products in that section.
Does magento provide any default functionality for this feature or do I have to do it the way I referred in my previous question.
Yes magento has its default functionality
Goto app/design/frontend/default/(yourtheme)/tempalte/reports folder
If you cant see that folder in your theme, just copy it and save it to your theme folder
you can use the below code to display in layout files
<block type="reports/product_viewed" name="left.reports.product.viewed" template="reports/product_viewed.phtml" />
To call in CMS pages (homepage)
{{block type="reports/product_viewed" name="left.reports.product.viewed" template="reports/product_viewed.phtml"}}
To call in phtml file
<?php echo $this->getLayout()->createBlock('reports/product_viewed')->setTemplate('reports/product_viewed.phtml')->tohtml(); ?>
yes , you can by simply use this
<cms_index_index>
<reference name="content">
<block type="reports/product_viewed" name="home.reports.product.viewed" alias="product_viewed" template="reports/home_product_viewed.phtml" after="product_new">
<action method="addPriceBlockType">
<type>bundle</type>
<block>bundle/catalog_product_price</block>
<template>bundle/catalog/product/price.phtml</template>
</action>
</block>
</reference>
</cms_index_index>

Sidebar Cart in Magento doesn't work properly

I have a sidebar cart on a magento store i am working on. It has been moved to the bottom of the site.
I have been able to show how many items are in the cart in the footer (footer is located within header.phtml), however, when you hover over the cart, it tells you that there is nothing in the cart. I have added an extension that uses Ajax to add items to the cart. When you add items to the cart, the sidebar cart then works properly, and displays the products that are currently in the cart. However, when you refresh the page, this stops working and 'nothing is in the cart'. Any ideas as to what would cause this?

How to put login form in Cms Page in Magento?

I want to add a login form to CMs page in Magento, I have tried adding this:
{{block type=”core/template” template=”customer/form/login.phtml”}}
in the content section of the CMS page, but its not working . Please help me.
This code finally wordked for me .
{{block type ="Mage_Customer_Block_Form_login" template="customer/form/login.phtml" }}
Open cms.xml in your theme and find the following
<reference name="content">
<block type=”cms/page” name=”cms_page”/>
</reference>
Replace it with this
<reference name="content">
<block type="customer/form_login" name="customer_form_login" template="customer/form/login.phtml"/>
<block type=”cms/page” name="cms_page"/>
</reference>
Then your code should work.
If your magento version less than 1.6 use the below code.
{{block type="customer/login" template="customer/form/login.phtml"}}
if your Magento version is 1.6 or greater
{{block type="customer/login" template="persistent/customer/form/login.phtml"}}
Try this:
{{block type="customer/form_login" name="customer_form_login_block" template="persistent/customer/form/login.phtml"}}
This is a way to do it without modifying any files:
Go into the Design tab
In "Custom Layout Update XML" add the following:
< reference name="content">
< block type="customer/form_login" name="customer_form_login" template="customer/form/login.phtml" after="-"/>
< /reference>
There you go. You can also do this in Categories.
Tested in Magento 1.8.1 (should work on most versions)
