 * Hello
 * I have installed the Meta Box plugin to create custom fields and custom post 
   types. I need to display their fields in the front end, however they state to
   copy the single.php and rename as single-{post-type}.php in child theme. Problem
   is, I can’t find the single.php in the OWP theme directory. I’ve tried using 
   hierarchy structure as stated in some of the theme files as partials/single/layout
   or partials/single/content, and placing my code in there, but this does nothing.
 * Where do I find single.php in the theme files, or how do I create my own custom
   post type .php file to overwrite this post type in my child theme?
 * Thank you

 * Hello,
 * On the root folder of OceanWP, you will get the singular.php file, please edit
   that and check.
