Title: Custom post type single Last modified: August 30, 2016 --- # Custom post type single * [sagitt000](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sagitt000/) * (@sagitt000) * [10 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-post-type-single/) * Hi, i have a serious problem with custom post type single. I have created custom post type named ‘projects’. At this time, i have seen nothing wrong with my codes in functions. Everything works fine, but single-projects.php doesn’t. It appears** blank page** everytime i enter a project, and i don’t know why. I have googled many times, and i can make sure that it is not permalink problem (many others got this). Here is registering codes in functions: * ``` function create_post_type() { register_post_type( 'projects', array( 'labels' => array( 'name' => __( 'Projects' ), 'singular_name' => __( 'Project' ), ), 'public' => true, 'has_archive' => true, 'show_ui' => true, 'menu_icon' => 'dashicons-portfolio', 'rewrite' => true, 'supports' => array('title', 'custom-fields', 'editor', 'revisions', 'thumbnail', 'author') ) ); flush_rewrite_rules(); } ``` * And obviously, single-projects.php is copied from single.php. I hope anyone could help me! Thank you very much!

If it is complexity blank, there is a good chance that there is a syntax error. * Do you see a title in the browser tab? * Thread Starter [sagitt000](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sagitt000/) * (@sagitt000) * [10 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-post-type-single/#post-6278936) * It is completely blank, no title, just only url. Any clue for a syntax error, please? * [Justin Greer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/justingreerbbi/) * (@justingreerbbi) * [10 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-post-type-single/#post-6278938) * You could send a link to pastebin containing your code your are using for the single-projects.php. * Thread Starter [sagitt000](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sagitt000/) * (@sagitt000) * [10 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-post-type-single/#post-6278944) * [http://pastebin.com/apxU4fUS](http://pastebin.com/apxU4fUS) It has the exactly same code with single.php. It should work. * [Justin Greer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/justingreerbbi/) * (@justingreerbbi) * [10 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-post-type-single/#post-6278947) * I am seeing syntax errors right off the get go. * ``` if ( is_singular('projects') ) the_content(); else ( // Start the loop. while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ``` * Looks like you are missing a bracket and use parenthesis instead of brackets. You also do not need to do a `is_single` check since the file is named `single- projects.php`. * [Ravikas kamboj](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ravikas/) * (@ravikas) * [10 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-post-type-single/#post-6278950) * Hey edit my code and change it according to your needs Here it is complete example of custom post and save the post. * ``` _x( 'All Recipe', 'Recipe' ), 'singular_name' => _x( 'All Recipe', 'Recipe' ), 'add_new' => _x( 'Add New Recipe', 'Recipe' ), 'add_new_item' => _x( 'Add New Recipe', 'Recipe' ), 'edit_item' => _x( 'Edit Recipe', 'Recipe' ), 'new_item' => _x( 'New Recipe', 'Recipe' ), 'view_item' => _x( 'View Recipe', 'Recipe' ), 'search_items' => _x( 'Search Recipe', 'Recipe' ), 'not_found' => _x( 'No Recipe found', 'Recipe' ), 'not_found_in_trash' => _x( 'No Recipe found in Trash', 'Recipe' ), 'parent_item_colon' => _x( 'Parent Recipe:', 'Recipe' ), 'menu_name' => _x( 'All Recipe', 'Recipe' ), ); $args = array( 'labels' => $labels, 'hierarchical' => true, 'supports' => array( 'title', 'editor', 'excerpt', 'author', 'thumbnail', 'trackbacks', 'custom-fields', 'comments', 'revisions', 'page-attributes' ), 'taxonomies' => array( 'category', 'post_tag', 'page-category' ), 'public' => true, 'show_ui' => true, 'show_in_menu' => true, 'show_in_nav_menus' => true, 'publicly_queryable' => true, 'exclude_from_search' => false, 'has_archive' => true, 'query_var' => true, 'can_export' => true, 'rewrite' => true, 'capability_type' => 'post', 'taxonomies' => array('recipe_type') ); register_post_type( 'Recipe', $args ); } function add_recipe_type_taxonomies() { register_taxonomy('recipe_type', 'review', array( // Hierarchical taxonomy (like categories) 'hierarchical' => true, // This array of options controls the labels displayed in the WordPress Admin UI 'labels' => array( 'name' => _x( 'Recipe Category', 'taxonomy general name' ), 'singular_name' => _x( 'Recipe-Category', 'taxonomy singular name' ), 'search_items' => __( 'Search Recipe-Categories' ), 'all_items' => __( 'All Recipe-Categories' ), 'parent_item' => __( 'Parent Recipe-Category' ), 'parent_item_colon' => __( 'Parent Recipe-Category:' ), 'edit_item' => __( 'Edit Recipe-Category' ), 'update_item' => __( 'Update Recipe-Category' ), 'add_new_item' => __( 'Add New Recipe-Category' ), 'new_item_name' => __( 'New Recipe-Category Name' ), 'menu_name' => __( 'Categories' ), ), // Control the slugs used for this taxonomy 'rewrite' => array( 'slug' => 'recipe_type', // This controls the base slug that will display before each term 'with_front' => false, // Don't display the category base before "/locations/" 'hierarchical' => true // This will allow URL's like "/locations/boston/cambridge/" ), )); } add_action( 'init', 'add_recipe_type_taxonomies', 0 ); ``` * [Justin Greer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/justingreerbbi/) * (@justingreerbbi) * [10 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-post-type-single/#post-6278953) * [@ravikas](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ravikas/) Thanks for the input but the OP is not having issues creating the CPT, they are having issues displaying them. Also, next time please wrap you code in the code ticks. It makes the forum easier to read. * [@sagitt000](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sagitt000/) The code you provided is not from the original single.php file. There is improper code added. Remove the code that has been added and you should be good to go. * [Ravikas kamboj](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ravikas/) * (@ravikas) * [10 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-post-type-single/#post-6278963) * [@justin](https://wordpress.org/support/users/justin/) Greer ok * Thread Starter [sagitt000](https://wordpress.org/support/users/sagitt000/) * (@sagitt000) * [10 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-post-type-single/#post-6279146) * Oh sorry for being late, mates. * [@justin](https://wordpress.org/support/users/justin/): You are right about is_singlular, I removed it, but it’s still blank. Besides, i think those codes can’t make it blank, it is just not necessary. * [@ravikas](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ravikas/): Basically, i have done the same thing to you for registering CPT and etc. And Justin also got the point, it is about displaying. Others work fine as they should be.
