    Hi

    I am looking to create a new post type as a blog.

    This is the sort of layout I am wanting to create as a post type archive page

    I can’t locate the post-template file in the theme file editor.

    is this something that can be achieved?

    Thanks

    Ali

    Hi Ali,

    I can help you with this.

    Let’s say your post type’s slug is news_article, you’d want to create a copy of the content.php file in your child theme and rename it to content-news_article.php. That template would then be used whenever someone views a single news article.

    For the blog/archive page, you can copy content-archive.php into your child theme and rename it as content-archive-news_article.php.

    Hi Ben

    Thanks for this.

    I have added the author child theme now and will contact your support team directly as I have since upgraded to extended support.

    Thanks

    Ali
