README

Single Page Variants is a Shopware 6 plugin that changes how URLs for product variants work. Instead of giving each variant its own SEO URL, only the main product has one.

When a user selects a variant on the product page, the plugin loads the new product data using AJAX. This means the page doesn’t reload, and the URL stays the same.

Features

Only the main (parent) product gets an SEO URL.
Variants no longer have their own URLs.
The product page updates using AJAX when switching between variants.
Sitemap includes urls for parent pages, not for specific variant pages.
Avoids SEO issues with multiple URLs for similar content.

How It Works

Variant Switcher:
The plugin changes the variant switcher (product configurator) so it uses AJAX to load the selected variant’s data without reloading the page.
Switch Route:
The controller for the switch route is updated to return the full product detail HTML directly, instead of redirecting to a new variant URL.
URL Handling:
Variant URLs are replaced with their parent product’s URL using a custom SeoUrlPlaceholderHandler.
No SEO URLs for Variants:
The plugin stops Shopware from generating any SEO URLs for variants by extending the ProductPagePageSeoUrlRoute.

When to Use This

You want simpler, cleaner product URLs.
You don’t want each variant to have its own page.
You want a faster, more dynamic product page experience.

Compatibility

Shopware 6.6
Not recommended if other plugins or custom code depend on variant-specific URLs. Your mileage may vary.
