• Installed and worked great with the top level main theme, however I have child themes that I use but I get an error which is basically saying the file (template) cannot be found in the child themes directory.

    How do I get it to use the top level directory for the post templates even if the child theme is being used?

    Of course we also want to allow the child theme to have its own past templates if that is wanted, i.e. over-ride the top level post templates

    Cheers

    Sorry I ended up not using this, it was more trouble than what it was worth.

    OK.Thanks
    Which one do you use now ?
    I had “Custom Post Type Page Template” but it doesn’t run with bbPress.

    Pending your advice
    Thanks

    Sorry there was a suitable replacement either (that I could find). we decided against post templates as it caused confusion between a post and a page (for our particular theme.

    I know this one worked fine pre WP 4, so it may just be an update required?

    Sorry I cannot be of more help
