Put it in catalog.cfg which is on the same level a pages/ and products/.
Alot of people sometimes end up doing

PageSelectField    prod_group

In other words, look closely at you database design, maybe a column that is
already occupied (prod_group, category) will be sufficient in defining the
different products. You don't want to occupy a column if you don't need to.

Then you must have "flypages" named after the contents of this column. So in
your example maybe you would have

template_page
gfather
gfather
wall
gfather

So in pages/ you would make a flypage named gfather.hmtl and wall.html, and
they would handle  their respective products automatically.
