   Hi,

   I've installed the plug-in and made new single-new.php, which is copy of single.php. The problem is that I can't see drop-down to select different templates in admin. The php is 5.1.6 and I have also
   
<?php
/*
Template Name Posts: Snarfer
*/
?>


   Any idea where the problem can be?

   Thanks
   Vel

   I have the same problem, no drop down menu.
   But: when I use it on another theme it does work, what could cause my theme (VN-News) to mess with this plugin?

   found a different solution.
   I've added the following code to my themes functions.php:
   add_filter('single_template', create_function('$t', 'foreach( (array) get_the_category() as $cat ) { if ( file_exists(TEMPLATEPATH . "/single-{$cat->term_id}.php") ) return TEMPLATEPATH . "/single-{$cat->term_id}.php"; } return $t;' ));

   now when i create a single-xx.php (where xx is the ID of the category) all posts in this category use the single-xx.php instead of single.php.
