Hi,
I’m not quite sure what you’re looking for. If you want to style the single post page for the custom post type, you can use the single-xxx (where xxx is the post type name) body class added by WP automatically.
If you actually want to print the post type name, you can use the get_post_type() function: https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/get_post_type/
To add specific code in the header.php for the post type you can do something like this:
if ( get_post_type() == 'your_custom_posttype' ) {
// Do stuff
}
Hope that helps.
Thanks for the help, I had typed get_pot_type hence the issue. Sorry, the curse of lack of sleep strikes!
global $wp_query;
if ( $wp_query->get( 'post_type' ) === 'POSTTYPE' ) {
}
will work on the post type archive and single posts of that type.
If you have a taxonomy archive in the mix you’ll need to check that separately:
global $wp_query;
if ( $wp_query->get( 'post_type' ) === 'POSTTYPE' || $wp_query->get( 'taxonomy' ) === 'TAXONOMY' ) {
}
Edit: Sorry, I misread that as you saying you’d tried get_post_type and it didn’t work. Oh well, there’s another solution.
