 * I’ve got the plugin running now on a site and I use it to feed News Posts to 
   show just headlines on the front page, a custom news center on another page, 
   and then full posts elsewhere. Everything is working great and your plugin has
   been a lifesaver.
 * Now I need to do the same thing for different events I want to post on the site.
   I want to have a page show the event headline (like in my example above) on a
   page, and when clicked a full post page would appear with all of the event information.
 * I’ve been reading here about how to use a ‘custom posts_loop_template.php’ file
   to customize the look, and had success with it for the intermediary page (news
   center) in my news example above, but not in this case.
 * I may be over-thinking this, but the problem is, the full post page is using 
   single.php, and I don’t want my events post page to have the same look as my 
   news post page.
 * How do I have these posts point to a different template, or version of ‘single.
   php’?
 * Hope that makes sense…thanks
