@od3n:
I just tried your idea of using is_singular($post_type) and it didn’t work. Here is my sidebar.php sample:
<?php // stats da anunciante
if ( is_single() && is_singular('post') ) { include 'dashboard.php'; } ?>
<?php if ( !function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') || !dynamic_sidebar() ) : ?>
[...]
Basicaly I am getting the same behaviour with is_singular($post_type) as if using is_post_type(), as described by our chap t310s_. That is, it returns true as long as $post_type is a registered post type in my WP system.
Would you be kind enough to share your example with us, so we can see how you made it work? According to the is_singular article in the codex, it doesn’t have any example of this function supporting arguments (i.e.: post types, as in your example of is_singular('post')). If it does accept then the codex should be updated, and you would be doing the WP community a great favour and helping us with the documentation =)
In the meantime, I will now try t31os_’s suggestion of using $post_type = get_post_type( $post ); and see where I can go with it… =(

I solved the problem with t31os_’s suggestion. Thanks a lot dude!
<?php
$post_type = get_post_type( $post );
if ( is_single() && $post_type == 'post' ) { include 'dashboard.php'; } ?>
<?php if ( !function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') || !dynamic_sidebar() ) : ?>
Good stuff, happy to help.. 🙂

here the code i use.
<?php if(is_singular('product')) { ?>
<?php if ( !function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') || !dynamic_sidebar(Products) ) : ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php } else { ?>
<?php if ( !function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') || !dynamic_sidebar() ) : ?>
<?php endif; ?>
<?php } ?>
before this i use is_single() && is_post_type($post_type) but they doesnt seems to work.
I confirmed that is_singular(‘post_type’) is working for fine! Indeed, the “is_post_type” function is poorly named…

I didn’t managed to make is_singular('post_type') to work. But is_single() && $post_type == 'post' worked.
For is_singular to work with post_type you need to write it like this:
is_singular( $post_type = your_post_type )
This works for me.
Strangely, I couldn’t get this to work in my functions.php file.
if(is_singular('missions')) {
wp_enqueue_script('missionscript', get_bloginfo('template_url') . '/assets/js/mission.js', array('jquery'), '1', true);
}
So I ended up having to just call it in my footer.
<?php if(is_singular('missions')) { // Only gets called on Mission pages ?>
<script type="text/javascript" src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/assets/js/mission.js"></script>
<?php } ?>
Any idea why this wouldn’t work with the functions file?
I use if ( 'post_type' == get_post_type())
Where post_type is the name of your custom post type. Works like a charm.
