Is it possible to have a product on a separate page, not showing all the others?

Hey guys,

I am trying to figure this out for about one week and I simply forgot about this forum. I have no idea if this is only me, or it has been discussed here.

Or maybe it is something in front of my eyes and I can't see it. My question is regarding the products.

Let me give you an example. Let's say on a Web Hosting page I have a plan called Premium. When someones clicks the button to order the Premium plan, he is taken to the Hostbill page with ALL the products from that category, for example: Starter, Medium, Premium. And then he has to choose the Premium product for the second time.

When I copy the link from the Hostbill with a particular product, the link takes me to the Hostbill Order Page with all the products.

I hope you guys understood, if not, please let me know your questions.

Thank you very much

I solved that issue by creating a custom PHP page that dynamically loads the corresponding info from database and additional informations from a settings file.
As a result you have the following flow:
* Customer clicks on webhosting -> List of all hosting packages in that category
* Customer clicks on a package -> All package details and options are listed on a new page
* Customer clicks on "order" -> redirected to the Hostbill cart link.

That is however rather outside the scope of Hostbill and needs a lot of custom code and/or static pages. By consequence you can't just update Hostbill products but have to update your added pages too. I'm getting used to only using Hostbill for the actual order process and client area, hooking modules and own pages wherever needed... domain order page, hosting page, welcome page, ...
