Subcategory link directly to its only product

[Sami59100]

Hi

 

I have category page, with all its subcategories. And i'd like that when someone click on a subcategory, he is redirected automatically to the only product of a category.

 

Because each subcategories has only one product, so I find it weird to arrive in a page with only one product listed, and having to click again.

 

I want to delete a step.

 

I've looked it up but can't find a way to do it, is it possible ? If yes, how ?

 

Thanks !

Maybe with url rewriting. You can modify your htacess file if you run your store on a Apache HTTP based server.

Yes, but I'd have to do it manually for every product, and modify the .htaccess everytime I change products.

 

I was looking for something to modify in the Category controller. I was thinking get the number of products in the subcategory in the controller, pass it to template, and in the template, if I see a  subcategory with only one product, I directly link to the product instead of the category.

 

But I don't know how to do this, or if there is a bette way to do it.

 

Thanks !

No one knows ?

Please.

 

I use the htaccess technique for now, but it's not great as I explained...
