  • hey thanks for the answer. I'm getting a 404 though. I have a function named testAction and i call it in preDispath() with $this->_forward('test');. If I go to a url based on a method that exists in the controller there is no problem so I think the controller is set up correctly, Commented Nov 17, 2015 at 9:34
  • I also get an exception if the method exists in the controller Front controller reached 100 router match iterations Commented Nov 17, 2015 at 9:35
  • Sorry, I haven't tested my answer, but now I did and it does work. I'm going to update my answer. Commented Nov 17, 2015 at 10:21
  • Still getting a 404 on that. My controller is now extending Mage_Core_Controller_Varien_Router_Standard and match() returns true. In my preDispath() function I added your code if ($this->getRequest()->getActionName() !== 'foobar') { $this->_forward('foobar'); }. Fyi foobar() exists as foobarAction() Commented Nov 17, 2015 at 10:47
