 * Hello,
 * I created a custom theme, I have created the pages home and blog from wp-admin.
   Front page is front-page.php, posts page is page-blog.php. The settings are correct
   on wp-admin. I also created single-post.php, and single.php. However when I go
   to the permalink /blog/1412, or /1241, it does not utilize single.php, or single-
   post.php. None of the detecting functions in template-loader.php are picking 
   up anything. Note, there is no index.php. The file page.php is correct for other
   pages I have created. Blog, and individual blog posts are not going to the pages
   I want them to.
 * front page works with the function is_front_page() in template-loader.php
    pages
   such as about/page-image-alignment work with is_page() in template-loader.php
 * What should I do?
