Opus on “Faking” Single-entry Pages

Opus has written a great piece on faking single-entry pages with Fieldframe and FF Matrix. How do you “fake” single-entry pages?

I’m going to assume that you’re already using FF Matrix to set up a entry galleries, and that when a user clicks on an image in the gallery, you want the full-size image to appear on a new page (as opposed to having the image appear in a pop-up window or JavaScript “lightbox”). In this situation, you’ll need to “fake” EE’s single-entry view (as opposed to an “archive” view, which displays multiple entries on the same page).

The article provides a really interesting and clever way to use EE with FF Matrix.
