 * I’m sorry, perhaps you could clarify a little more on what you’re attempting 
   to accomplish. Are you trying to sort the directory listings by an arbitrary 
   date, or the date they were added?

 * Custom fields aren’t currently supported by the post type, but they can be easily
   turned if there’s an interest in using them. As for sorting or setting rules,
   I’m going to guess you’re asking for the archive/category pages? These are exactly
   like regular post or page categories, so you can modify the templates in any 
   way you could for a regular post type.

 * i need to create a post / directory for each connection
    and have to add customized
   fields/theme for each post
 * if wordpress dont allow this it will be hard
 * the category and tags will be used for something else

 * I’m sorry, but even with that last post you’re still not clearly defining what
   it is you want to accomplish. I’m doing my best to try and intuit what your requirements
   are but I need you to elaborate as much as you can.
 * What is the _connection_ you’re referring to?
    What do the customized fields 
   need to be (do you mean custom fields like you would find on a regular WordPress
   post or page)? How do these custom fields affect the way the plugin acts?

 * sorry for that
 * i search for a plug in that will provide me option to create customized template
   for posts
 * and to create customized fields based on the template in the post

 * I think I’m with you now. Have you seen this post: [http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-themes/create-custom-single-post-templates-for-specific-posts-or-sections-in-wordpress/](http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-themes/create-custom-single-post-templates-for-specific-posts-or-sections-in-wordpress/)
 * That might help set you in the right direction. Your post was tagged for this
   plugin (ldd directory lite) which is where most of the confusion came from I 
   think. I don’t believe it will do what you’re trying to do.
