Some commonly referenced pages and their URLs are shown in this table:

Advanced Search | index.php?main_page=advanced_search |
All Products | index.php?main_page=products_all |
Conditions of Use | index.php?main_page=conditions |

Reviews | index.php?main_page=reviews |
Shipping | index.php?main_page=shippinginfo |
Shopping Cart | index.php?main_page=shopping_cart |

Some pages cannot be accessed unless a visitor is logged in. These are the pages in the checkout flow.
Page | URL |
---|---|
Checkout Shipping | index.php?main_page=checkout_shipping |
Checkout Payment | index.php?main_page=checkout_payment |
Checkout Confirmation | index.php?main_page=checkout_confirmation |
Checkout Success | index.php?main_page=checkout_success |
Other pages which cannot be accessed unless a customer is logged in pertain to account management:
Page | URL |
---|---|
Account | index.php?main_page=account |
Account Edit | index.php?main_page=account_edit |
Account History | index.php?main_page=account_history |
Product and Category URLs have additional parameters. The URL for product 27, which is in category 5 under category 1 would be
index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1_5&products_id=27
or
index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=27
The URL for category 5 would be
index.php?main_page=index&cPath=1_5
Note: If the setting Skip 1-prod Categories is True, and there was only one product in category 5, this page would be skipped and the product info page would be shown directly.
