# ✅ Products Section - FIXED!

## Problem
Products section was using wrong URL structure (`admin/new_product.php`) instead of proper controller routing (`admin/controller/new_product.php`) like coupons.

## Solution
Restructured all product files to match the coupon system architecture.

---

## ✅ Fixed Files

### Controllers (admin/controller/)
- ✅ `products.php` - List page with DataTables
- ✅ `new_product.php` - Add product form & handler
- ✅ `edit_product.php` - Edit product form & handler
- ✅ `delete_product.php` - Delete handler (already existed)
- ✅ `get_products.php` - DataTables JSON endpoint (NEW)

### Views (admin/views/)
- ✅ `products.view.php` - Products table with DataTables
- ✅ `new.product.view.php` - Add product form
- ✅ `edit.product.view.php` - Edit product form

### Deleted Old Files
- ❌ `admin/products.php` (moved to controller)
- ❌ `admin/new_product.php` (moved to controller)
- ❌ `admin/edit_product.php` (moved to controller)
