 * Hi there,
 * I would like to use a template for all the posts in one of my categories. I have
   included the following in my single.php page before the loop. However it passes
   everything as true and therefore sends all the posts to the include regardless
   if it’s a post within the category 22 or not. Can you help?
 *     ```
       <?php if (in_category('22')) { ?>
       	<?php include(TEMPLATEPATH . '/includes/guided-tour.php'); ?>
       	<?php } else { ?>
       ```
   
 * Thanks Jono

 * as this is for a single post, you should be able to put this code within the 
   loop without any problem, and that should solve your problem.
