 * Hi,
 * I am trying to load a CSS file only for a specific post template, I called it:
 * single-photograpy.php
 * which is a custom post template only for pictures posts.
    In the header.php, 
   I can’t find a way to target it. This will target any single post (also the normal
   posts):
 *     ```
       if (is_single()) { ?>
   
       <link href="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/css/someCSS.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
   
       <?php } ?>
       ```
   
 * while this one simply doesn’t work:
 *     ```
       if (is_single('single-photography.php')) { ?>
   
       <link href="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/css/someCSS.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
   
       <?php } ?>
       ```
   
 * Is there a way only to target the posts from the single-photography.php custom
   post template?
 * _[Moderator Note: Please post code or markup snippets between backticks or use
   the code button.]_
 * THANKS A LOT

 * Try enqueuing your CSS instead.
