If you’ve ever successfully made a page template in Wordpress, you’ll be able to
do the same thing for posts using this plugin. Excellent.

Thanks for this amazing plugin. Worked fine in 4.8 Not so easy to set up if you 
don´t know a little a bit about php and/or programming.

### 󠀁[Badly designed](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/badly-designed/)󠁿

 [KeithDonegan](https://profiles.wordpress.org/babyboy808/) December 9, 2016

I organise my templates in a specific directory and this doesn’t work with this 
plugin, as you require me to have them in the top level theme directory. Second 
point, you add clutter to the admin menus, by having the plugin’s own menu. You 
should have put this in the settings area, as you only have 2 settings…
