Load Individual Product Page on Homepage

I need to load a single product on the homepage. I do not want to use the featured product option. I need the product information, product attributes and the add to cart and quantity option to appear.

Is this possible?

Re: Load Individual Product Page on Homepage

Is it that you want to add information about one of your products to the home page, or that you want to make the product page be the homepage?

Easiest way (I'm assuming this is your only product) would be to create a category, then put that product in it, then set Admin - Configuration - Layout Settings - Skip 1-prod Categories to true

You may have to set one or both of the Categories - Always Show on Main Page and Main Page - Opens With Category I've never understood how those options work.

There are 3 products. I only want one on the homepage. All three products are in separate categories so i don't think your suggestion will work.

Can I configure it to only display the products of a single category on the homepage?

I think so, using the two second options I mentioned. I think you can specify a category id in one of them.

Yes, you can set Categories - Always Show on Main Page to true and Main Page - Opens With Category to the id of the category you want. Since you say you have three products, each in their own category, this should be easy.
