Hi.
Try to insert this to the /light_responsive/customer/home.tpl right after the opening <body> tag.

Code:

{if $main eq 'catalog' and $cat_products|@count eq 1}
  <script type="text/javascript">
    window.location.href = "{$cat_products[0].page_url}";
  </script>
{/if}

i think it is not good use js to redirect the category page to product page.

at www.loupesusa.com, category of Feather LED Headlight, the url is http://www.loupesusa.com/feather-led-headlight/, when i clip the category, www.loupesusa.com/feather-led-headlight/ will be display first, then jump to product page of http://www.loupesusa.com/feather-super-light-led-headlight.html. very bad for seo

how about like this:

if a category has only 1 product, just let the product page url as category page url. i think it is better for seo.

category of Feather LED Headlight only has 1 product, then let http://www.loupesusa.com/feather-led-headlight/ be this category's url directly. not need using http://www.loupesusa.com/feather-led-headlight as its url.

how to meet this demands, pls?

Hello.
You can try to use the header('Location: function

header("{$cat_products[0].page_url}");
{/php}
{/if}

1. The code is for X-Cart 4, not X-Cart 5.
2. You should use the header() PHP function in PHP scripts, not in template files.
3. I believe you should hire someone to do custom modifications for you.
