How to Create Single.php for Wordpress

Question

I designed a template for WordPress, I've only encountered a problem in one section. How can I create a post to display single.php for my site?

Thanks!

@MortezaAhmadi every theme has single.php file by default. You can use that file. Even WordPress will automatically use single.php file of current theme. you can make changes in that file. — Yogesh Garg

Your issue is a trivial thing. In order to show your blog/website posts, you need to call the_post() function inside of a loop.

As long there are posts in your blog, the_post() should render a response. Take a look at Twenty_Fourteen single.php default template in order to get a better understanding of how things should be.

Make a back up copy of single.php, call this single-original.php.

Open single.php file. Delete the contents of single.php and place the below code in it.

<?php
 $post = $wp_query->post;
 if ( in_category('2') ) {
  include(TEMPLATEPATH . '/single_new.php');
} else {
   include(TEMPLATEPATH . '/single_new1.php');
  }
?>

Open single-original.php and choose File > Save As and call this file single_new.php. Choose File > Save As again and call this file single_new1.php.
Upload single.php, single_new.php and single_new1.php as well as style.css, if you made changes in this.
Refresh your web page and click on one of the post titles in the category for which you are using single_new1.php.
