Magento

Hello All,

usually we can see a product in magento with two URLs: htp://mysite.com/some-category/some-product.html or htp://mysite.com/some-product.html. I need to have all products visible by URL like htp://mysite.com/products/some-product.html. Most obvious way is to add a category ‘products’ and link all products to this category, but we have a few thousands of products in the catalog, so I’d like to do it in some programmatic way. Please give me a suggestion in which way I could do it? Now my idea is to overload class Mage_Core_Model_Url_Rewrite but I’m not sure if it is good idea.

Thanks in advance,
Alexander

Hey

I am also looking out for same but i didn’t find any solutions...please if any buddy got solutions for above post kindy help me to sort it out

Hmm maybe have a play around with the function

Mage_Catalog_Model_Url::generatePath();
at if (’request’ === $type) {...}

on line 571 at

return $this->getUnusedPath($category->getStoreId(), ‘product/’ . $categoryUrl . ‘/’ . $urlKey . $productUrlSuffix,
$this->generatePath(’id’, $product, $category)
);

not tested or anything but give it a try, you have to refresh your rewrites under admin->system->cache
