hide name in url & generate/export product links?

Hi,

Is it possible to hide the product_name from the url?
Now you have something like this when searching for a particular product.

index.php/en/hikashop-menu-for-products-listing/product/3942-a-example-of-a-product/

This would become:
index.php/en/hikashop-menu-for-products-listing/product/3942/
So only the product_id is shown.

Actually the import part is that I have a link www.xxx.xx/xxxxx/product/3942 or something similar.
I just need a link where there is the product id without the name so I can concatenate the url with product id.

Just in case. The configuration of the SEF settings:

1) is it possible to remove the product_name for the url above?
2) Is there a way to generate product links someway like with an export maybe? It's because we'd like to have a list of usable links in a csv for example together with product_id, category_id. Someone else is making a digital catalog and they need the links for the products. So they can link an image to a specific product page. If there is no way I suspect I'll have to export a csv and do in excel.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

I think that the solution for the both issues is to use the canonical urls.
In the product edition page, fill the canonical url without the product name in the url.
And then in the export, you can use the mass actions and select the product_canonical field to export the product url.
