Magento Modules – Single Product Category Redirect
Continuing our series on useful Magento modules that we have deployed for customers, today’s is Single Product Category Redirect.
It might not seem like so much of a problem, but if you have a key category that has a single product, then taking your potential customer to a listing page to choose from a list of one looks a bit rubbish! this little module solves the problem nicely by adapting behavoiur so that all single product categories divert the customer directly to the product page. It looks slick, reduces customer annoyance and increases conversion.
Best of all it is completely free!
