将模板应用于自定义帖子类型Wordpress

Question

I am trying to apply a template to a Custom Post Type in Wordpress. Currently I am displaying a list of Custom Post Types on a seperate page and I'm using the permalink for each post as the URL to go to when a link is clicked.

Code to generate the links:

<a href="<? echo get_post_permalink() ?>"><h2><?php the_title(); ?></h2></a>

This redirects me to a page with a URL like this:

http://xxx.xxx/?pa_supplier=xyz-packaging-ltd

I am wondering how I could customize how this page might look.

I know for pages you can create a php file called page-id.php and subsitute the page id in and that will allow for customization, can something similar be done to Custom Post Types?

Answer 1

Simply create a new template file in the theme folder and name it with following syntax: single-[post-type_slug].php, for example. If we have a post-type named "projects", the file for displaying a single projects post would be "single-projects.php".
