I have a child theme with two custom post types 'jazz clubs' and 'jazz festival'. I would like the single.php to either display different content dependent on whether the post is from jazz clubs or jazz festival.
The problem is, how can I create this using single.php file. Have tried creating single-jazz-clubs.php and single-jazz-festival.php but the current single.php keeps loading the parent content.
Actually I can <?php get_template_part( 'content', 'club' ); ?> from the single.php but is there a way of making sure it can show festival CPT, the post belongs to that post type.
The current single.php look like this:
get_header(); ?>
<div id="content" class="large-8 columns" role="main">
<?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
<?php get_template_part( 'content', get_post_format() ); ?>s
<nav class="nav-single">
<span class="nav-previous"><?php previous_post_link( '%link', '<span class="meta-nav">' . _x( '«', 'Previous post link', 'wpforge' ) . '</span> %title' ); ?></span>
<span class="nav-next"><?php next_post_link( '%link', '%title <span class="meta-nav">' . _x( '»', 'Next post link', 'wpforge' ) . '</span>' ); ?></span>
</nav><!-- .nav-single -->
<?php comments_template( '', true ); ?>
<?php endwhile; // end of the loop. ?>
</div><!-- #content -->
And here are my CPT's:
function jazz_clubs() {
$labels = array(
'name' => _x( 'Jazz Clubs', 'Post Type General Name', 'text_domain' ),

Please check the post type slug. I think that is different than jazz-festival.
If you create single-POST_TYPE_SLUG.php it will work.
My solution for this same situation is the following
enhance it to allow custom post types to use the same file, yet have custom content displayed, different classes, etc.
Becomes
<?php
$post = get_queried_object();
if ( 'post' == $post->post_type ) {
$post_format = get_post_format();
} else {
$post_format = $post->post_type;
}
get_template_part( 'content', $post_format ); ?>
For posts, this will allow you to support post formats in your theme. This will also allow single.php to use content-jazz-festival.php as it's template part, rather than the default content.php. You can also specify other prefixes, as I am sure you know.
get_template_part( 'content-single', $post_format );
This would use content-single-jazz-festival.php with a fallback of content-single.php.
Full code:
<?php
global $post;
get_header(); ?>
<div id="content" class="large-8 columns" role="main">
<?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
<?php
if ( 'post' == $post->post_type ) {
$post_format = get_post_format();
} else {
$post_format = $post->post_type;
}?>
<?php get_template_part( 'content', $post_format ); ?>
<nav class="nav-single">
<span class="nav-previous"><?php previous_post_link( '%link', '<span class="meta-nav">' . _x( '«', 'Previous post link', 'wpforge' ) . '</span> %title' ); ?></span>
<span class="nav-next"><?php next_post_link( '%link', '%title <span class="meta-nav">' . _x( '»', 'Next post link', 'wpforge' ) . '</span>' ); ?></span>
</nav><!-- .nav-single -->
<?php comments_template( '', true ); ?>
<?php endwhile; // end of the loop. ?>
</div><!-- #content -->
