# [single.php] Single Post Subcategories?

 * Currently I’m using a single post template for a certain category, e.g. Blog.
   All the post directly in category ‘Blog’ are using the layout in **single-blog.
   php**
 * However I defined serveral subcategories under ‘Blog’. The template isn’t working
   for subcategories, I have about seven of ’em. How will I apply the parent **single-
   blog.php** template to all subcategories filled under ‘blog’?
 * Creating seven PHP files referring to single-blog.php would be a solution but
   there must be a better way!
