change link from left box

I need to change where one of my catagories points to. right now it points to a cpath but I'd like it to point to something like 'product_info.php?products_id=693' instead. is this possible? or if this can't be done is it possible to change the product description length? because really all I want is the full paragraph from the details page to show up on the cpath page.

 

thanks!

not smthing that would be that easy to do, your best bet might be to look at using htacces to redirect a cpath link

that was actually the first thing I tried and I couldn't get it to work...

 

this is the .htaccess file

 

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^cpath=46$ 
RewriteRule ^index.php?cPath=46$ /product_info.php?products_id=693 [R=301,L]

 

 

shouldn't that work? :(

RewriteRule ^product_info.php?products_id=693 [R=301,L]

okay I got it to work when it is just

 

http://www.domain.com/index.php?cPath=46

 

 

but sometimes it will be

 

http://www.domain.com/index.php?cPath=46&osCsid=smtsodupgpmmtne1cf8r18j6b2

 

the last part is random. some type of session ID.. how do I fix it to get both? this is how I fixed it for the first one...

 

 

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^cPath=46$ 
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ /product_info.php?products_id=693 [R=301,L]
