All you need to do, after installing and activating the plugin, is create one or more « Post Templates » in your theme’s folder, and when creating or editing a post, choose the post template that you would like to use. If no post template is selected, the default template will be used. ### 1.2 * Minor update ### 1.3 * Copied methodology of WordPress [get_page_templates()](http://xref.yoast.com/trunk/_functions/get_page_templates.html) function * Added 2.9 compatibility * Ensured 2.8 backward compatibility ### 1.4 * Compatibility with up to WordPress 3.6 * Build a class for better namespacing and to avoid conflicts with Genesis ### 1.4.1 * Fix admin bug ### 1.4.2 * Fix bugs, feel sorry for myself ### 1.4.3 * Fix another bug, loathe myself ### 1.4.4 * Fix issue with default template not loading ## Screenshots * [[ * This is what the top of your new Post Templates should look like * [[ * This is the new box that this plugin adds to your post edit screen ## Installation **Installation** 1. Upload the entire `single-post-template` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress 3. Create Post Templates in your theme’s folder, as described in Usage **Usage** After you have installed the plugin, you’ll need to create some Post Templates to use. In order to create a Post Template, either duplicate your default single post template, or create a new template file. Insert the following code at the very top of the file: ``` ``` _See Screenshot #1 for what this might look like in your code editor_ Once you have created a new Post Template, either edit or create a new post, and directly underneath the post content box, you should see a new box labeled « Single Post Template ». Choose the Post Template you want to use and publish or update the post. _See Screenshot #2 for what this might look like in your post edit screen_ ## FAQ ### How do I create new Post Templates?

Très simplement : Pour créer un nouveau template d’article, dupliquez single.php le renommer par exemple :single- cuisine.php A l’intérieur insérer le code php décrit par l’auteur en remplaçant le texte entre crochets par le nom du nouveau fichier (single-cuisine.php) Et hop le tour est joué. Lorsque vous créez une nouvelle page, vous avez une liste de choix avec les différents templates que vous avez créé. Merci à l’auteur pour cet excellent plugin.
