  A simple module will have a controller called "products". That URL is pointing to a function in your controller called "slug". What is the URL behind the view button?

  Thank you for answering me. I don't have a controller for this module (From the documentation: Simple modules don't require additional views and controllers to be created), it is a simple module. The url behind the button is: mysite/products/slug (the product's slug), so if the product's slug is: xxx it will be mysite/products/xxx

  @Sigal - do you mean the "View" button from the Fuel backend listing?

  What's the content of your MY_fuel_modules.php file look like?

  Is it something like that?

  $config['modules']['news'] = array(
      'module_name'    => 'Products',
      'module_uri'     => 'products',
      'model_name'     => 'Product_model',
      //...
      'preview_path'   => 'products/{slug}',
      //...
  
      // frontend pages
      // @link http://docs.getfuelcms.com/modules/simple => Generate Post Pages
      'pages' => array(
          'base_uri' => 'products',
          'per_page' => 10,
      )
  );
  

  For the preview_path, you need to set the {placeholder} of the field (most of the time, it is slug)

  And to use the generated post pages as described here: http://docs.getfuelcms.com/modules/simple => Generate Post Pages you need to setup the pages config array. Unfortunately, it's not really straight forward in the docs, because it assumes too much.

  here is what I got working without setting up any new views or controller:

  I assume your Products_model is extending the Base_posts_model like this (Replace all "Tests" with "Products", also keep in mind, Base_posts_model assumes fields like publish_date etc.

  require_once(FUEL_PATH.'models/Base_posts_model.php');
  
  class Tests_model extends Base_posts_model { // Fuel Way
  
      public $foreign_keys  = array(
          'category_id' => array(
              FUEL_FOLDER => 'fuel_categories_model',
          )
      );
  
      function __construct()
      {
          parent::__construct('tests');
      }
  
  
      function list_items($limit = NULL, $offset = NULL, $col = 'name', $order = 'asc', $just_count = FALSE)
      {
  
          $this->db->select('tests.id, tests.title, tests.dec');
          $this->db->order_by('tests.id');
  
          $data = parent::list_items($limit, $offset, $col, $order, $just_count);
  
          return $data;
      }
  
  }
  
  // don't forget this, else a lot of things won't work
  class Tests_item_model extends Base_post_item_model {
  
  }
  

  and this is the module config: take a look at the pages key:

  $config['modules']['tests'] = array(
      'module_name'    => 'Test',
      'module_uri'     => 'tests',
      'model_name'     => 'Tests_model',
  
      'limit_options'  => array( '25' => '25'),
      'display_only'   => false,
      'model_location' => 'app',
      'display_field'  => 'title',
      'search_field'   => 'title',
      'default_col'    => 'title',
      'table_headers'  => [
          'id'    => 'ID', 
          'title' => 'Title',
      ],
  
      'permission'     => 'tests',
  
  
      // frontend pages
      // @link http://docs.getfuelcms.com/modules/simple => Generate Post Pages
      'pages' => array(
          'base_uri' => 'tests',
          'per_page' => 10,
  
          // fuel\modules\fuel\libraries\Fuel_posts.php:203
          // function routes() thast is used to generate routes for generic pages
          #'archive'  => $base_uri.'/archive(/$year:\d{4})(/$month:\d{1,2})?(/$day:\d{1,2})?',
          #'tag'      => $base_uri.'/tag/($tag:.+)',
          #'category' => $base_uri.'/category/($category:.+)',
          #'search'   => $base_uri.'/search(/$q:.+)?',
          #'list'     => $base_uri,
          #'post'     => $base_uri.'/(\d{4})/(\d{2})/(\d{2})/($slug:.+)',
          #'slug'     => $base_uri.'/($slug:.+)'
  
          'category' => [
              'view'  => '_posts/category',
              'route' => 'products/category/($category:.+)',
              'empty_data_show_404' => TRUE
          ],
          // _posts/ refers to /views/_posts/* folder
          'list' => '_posts/posts',
          'slug' => [
              'view'  => '_posts/post',
              'route' => 'products(/$slug:.+)'
          ],
  
      )
  );
  

  I haven't figured it out completely, but that's what I came up with reading the docs (http://docs.getfuelcms.com/modules/simple) and jumping through the code with the debugger.

  If I got something wrong, please correct me.
