Thanks!
You also need to add this into functions.php located at the theme folder in order the drop-down menu to appear for product post type:
/**
* Hooks the WP cpt_post_types filter
*
* @param array $post_types An array of post type names that the templates be used by
* @return array The array of post type names that the templates be used by
**/
function my_cpt_post_types( $post_types ) {
$post_types[] = ‘grid_products’;
return $post_types;
}
add_filter( ‘cpt_post_types’, ‘my_cpt_post_types’ );
Is there anyway to do this without an additional plugin? Can I edit the grid-products.php file?
Thanks, Pete

you could edit the single template, then have a if else statement something like :
if (get_post_type( $post->ID ) == ‘grid_products’ ){
include ‘producttemplate.php’;
}else {
rest of single file
}
Thanks! It helped me a lot!!!
thanks y’all (i had the same question),
I would like to use this code :
function my_cpt_post_types( $post_types ) {
$post_types[] = ‘grid_products’;
return $post_types;
}
add_filter( ‘cpt_post_types’, ‘my_cpt_post_types’ );
but i want to use it in my child theme functions.php file.
would i need to use more code so that it works with the existing functions.php file?
any chance somebody knows what to add?
thanks again

Figured it out:
In order for the Custom-Post-Template plugin to create a Product Post Type drop-down menu on the new/edit product page you need to add Kozaria’s code to your theme’s function.php page.
In order to use that code on a child-theme’s functions.php file you’ll need to add some code. Here’s Kozaria’s code wrapped in the other code needed.
if ( ! function_exists( 'my_cpt_post_types' ) ) {
function my_cpt_post_types( $post_types ) {
$post_types[] = 'grid_products';
return $post_types;
}
add_filter( 'cpt_post_types', 'my_cpt_post_types' );
}
I just copied my single.php template and renamed it to single-grid_products.php . There I can edit the way the product is shown in detail. Is that what was asked for? I just didn’t figuered out yet, how to display the price there.
