using pretty urls not on pages
Permalink
I want to build a c5 ecommerce plugin that the products are not based on pages (because frankly c5 is not good for ecommerce as of now)
I would like to render a product on a theme page but use a different url for each product.
(Instead of having lets say mysite.com/product?id=123 i would like to have mysite.com/myproductname)
But i do not want to make a page for each product
I hope i was clear. Does anyone have some kind of idea how to do this?
Thanks in advance.

If you put a single page at the top, all descendant URL fragments get passed as parameters to the single page controller view() method.
Your saing if i have mysite.com/product?id=1 so id will be passed to the view.
But if i have mysite/product/product-1 product-1 will not be passed to the view. I will just get page not found.
I think you didnt. Understand what i was asking. I need it to look like its a page but really i show a whole bunch of product on a single page.

So you want a URL that indicates a single product but on that very page you are displaying multiple products. This does not make sense to me.
Either the page is showing a single product like 'Claw Hammer CH510" with a URL that ends with something like '/claw-hammer-ch510' or the page is displaying a bunch of hammers with a URL that says '/hammers'.
What am I missing here?
