Multiple pages to the same product

hi,

No idea where else to put this....

We are creating a website.
What we would like is to have multiple pages, which actually link to 1 product.
but the page title etc, should be different.

i worked with joomla + virtuemart, and there i could just link a product in an article.... so there i would just add several different articles which actually display the same product.

Can i do this with zen-cart ?

Kind regards,

Eelco

Re: Multiple pages to the same product

thanks for the reply, but maybe "link" was a bad-word choice.

I would like an article to have the product inside the article, not as a link...

I could do it different (i think) is to just make copies of the product and name them differently.... but then again, if something changes in the product, i would have to copy them again ?

Re: Multiple pages to the same product

so that in the end, different URL's actually show the same product (but with a different header title etc...)

Re: Multiple pages to the same product

Still not understanding

You are talking about ab article....which is fully different than a product page

Have any example?

Re: Multiple pages to the same product

its not a zencart site, but this gives an idea how we want it

http://www.logiprint.nl/nl/uitnodigingskaartenproduct.html

click on a few products.... you'll notice that the specifications and attributes are all the same, only page title etc changes... and the url
so, those guys have many URL's which all come down to 1 product

/Affiches.html
/Bedrijfsfolder_drukwerk.html

Re: Multiple pages to the same product

yes, exactly....

but in the back-end it's all the same product.... same product, same attributes

it's more of a google thing...

if you would search one of those products you'll get straight to that product-detail page...

i can think of copy-ing all the products and rename them all, but maybe there is an easier way...

Re: Multiple pages to the same product

it's either one way or the other.

i just want different url's to link to the same product.

In joomla i could do that by adding articles, and embed 1 virtuemart article.

i don't know if that can work with zen-cart, or maybe there is another to achiev this.... (maybe copying products or linking them somehow)

And isn't that ONE article the same url???

Guess only you know what you seek
I am thinking that what you what will be seen as duplicate content being that it is the same with the ensuing penalty from the SERP's

Linking might be what you want and you will need one to many categories for this and link the product into them

Re: Multiple pages to the same product

the 1 virtuemart product, would be embedded in several different joomla articles....
so many different url's, with different article heading, but with same product

But indeed, i will take a look at product-linking.
Every link (url) i want to create, will be a different category i would guess

thanks for the time man

1 virtuemart product, would be embedded
so the product has ONE url and embeded means a link

Just that each article has a different url.....that can be done with ezpages as I initially stated
Each ezpage will have a url
