 * I just updated to the new version of Single Post Template plugin, and now in 
   a certain category on my blog, none of the posts are using the single.php template–
   it is using index.php as the default.
 * I tried resetting my permalinks/disabling all plugins but that didn’t help.
 * Anyways, I fixed it by just copying single.php to index.php (I don’t use index.
   php for my homepage or archives)…not really the ideal solution but it is a work
   around for now until this issue is resolved.

 * Yep, same thing here. It’s broken-had to revert back.

 * Broken here too! Caused a lot of confusion amongst readers and editors.
