 * Hi,
 * I have just upgraded to 4.7.3 and have an issue with my custom post types.
    The
   posts were displaying fine until the upgrade, and I’m not sure how to fix this.
 * They all now use the index.php file instead of single.php, which isn’t right.
   My static / list pages all work fine, just the custom posts.
 * Please help. My PHP isn’t the greatest. I have tried deactivating plugins and
   it’s still not working.
 * Thanks,
    Jack.
