How to make an unconditional redirect from the main page to the directory?

Question

opencart

I need to not have the main thing at all, but when entering the site, they fall into the first category. Is it possible?
Tried via index.php

// Router
if (isset($request->get['route'])) {
  $action = new Action($request->get['route']);
} else {
  $action = new Action('common/home');
}

change $action = new Action('common/home'); on the category but still no products appear + there is still a main page

Answer 1

make a redirect through .htaccess and don't rack your brains
