The Single Post Template plugin adds the ability for your theme to include \"Post Templates\" in much the same way you can add \"Page Templates\", allowing you to choose (via a simple dropdown) which post template you want to use, on a per-post basis.<\/p>\n\n
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.<\/p>\n\n

Choose the Post Template you want to use and publish or update the post.<\/p>\n\n See Screenshot #2 for what this might look like in your post edit screen<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n Please see the Installation -> Usage section for details on how to create new Post Templates.<\/p><\/dd>\n Please see the Installation -> Usage section for details on how to use Post Templates.<\/p><\/dd>\n Yes.
