Creating a custom page without CMS in Prestashop 1.7

[AsanteT]

Hi, 

I need to create a custom page without cms. The main reason that it has to be done without cms is that I need to have 100% control over then link name (I want the suppliers on my supplier page to link to my page instead of to a list of their products). With some help, I figured out that I could accomplish this by placing an index.php file in a folder with the same title as the suppliers product page on my server. I've tried following this tutorial https://iftakharhasan.wordpress.com/2014/04/05/prestashop-create-a-custom-page-without-cms/ but things have changed quite a bit in 1.7. I've seen a few topics on this subject but none have a complete step by step answer a novice  prestashop user can follow (preferably with code examples). Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I have the exact same issue, the solutions i found were all for 1.6 or lower.

i can't use cms because the page i need to create uses some javascript.

i'm sure the process is very similar but i can't find what has changed in 1.7 that stops the previous methods from working.

I have not tried it again in the new Prestashop 1.7 variants (1.7.2.X). But for Prestashop 1.7.1.0 in April 2017 I did a tutorial on my blog http://victor-rodenas.com/2017/04/23/crear-pagina-php-en-prestashop-1-7/ (It is an article in Spanish but you can try to use Google translator ) I'm not sure you're referring to what I'm saying. But check it and tell me if it's good for you.
 

Sorry for my English.
