   Hi,

   I have copied the "work" post type to create another post type which I named "product". I have many categories under that post type and I am using different templates for each them . How do I make single post under each of those categories to use different templates as well?

   I know that it is possible to select a template from the add new item screen but that is very much manual and needs to be done for each of the post separately. I want to make one template default for single posts from each of the category. Could you please help.

   I think the single template is selected by the "btp_works_single_template" which is "btp_products_single_template" for my product post type and I will have to modify that to include my templates. Could you please help me to do this.

   PS: I am using child theme.

   Hi,

   so you can directly modify btp_products_single_template function (it's not a part of the parent theme) :)

   Check this function (it lets you determine whether a post belongs to a certain category):

   Hi,

   I don't think this in_category function works with categories in custom posts. Could you please example if else statement for me.

   Thanks
