I want to preselect a custom template based on the URL. For example, if I open the URL “https://www.suncadiacabinrental.com/wp-admin/post-new.php?tmpl=MyCustomTemplate” I want the template “MyCustomTemplate” is preselected instead of “Default template”. Is there a way to do that adding a function to functions.php?
Thanks!!

]]>Plugin “Custom Post Templates” 1.5 appears to be abandoned (updated 14th June 2012, tested to WP 3.4.2)
Is this plugin still being supported? If not, are there any alternative solutions?
]]>Hello,
I have several custom post types and I managed to work ok with your plugin – all custom post types have a field to select specific tempplate I made.
Now I have this situation:
– one of my custom post types (with many posts published) let’s name it “cptnm1”
needs a custom post template change
– all of them already have selected for example “cpt-template-1”
– it would be long if I have to click and edit all of them one by one to select different custom post template “cpt-template-2”
Is there a way I can run some function through database tables in phpMyAdmin to select all posts which are custom post type “cptnm1” and change their custom post type template?
Something like:
UPDATE wp_posts SET custom_post_template = ‘cpt-template-2.php’ WHERE post_type = ‘cptnm1’;
I have just a little bit of experience with database and phpMyAdmin, not enough to be sure what to do exactly.
I will make a backup of course – just wanted to check with you if this is possible and to check what is the right sintax for phpMayAdmin to make this change.
Thank you,
S
My hosting has upgraded PHP to 7, and I’ve been getting a lot of the following message in my logs:
Methods with the same name as their class will not be constructors in a future version of PHP; Widget_SU has a deprecated constructor in /var/www/vhosts/hikari-images.co.uk/drewk.photo/gallery/wp-content/plugins/custom-post-template/plugin.php on line 507
Changing the line :
function Widget_SU ($name, $max = 1, $id = '', $args = '')
to
__construct ($name, $max = 1, $id = '', $args = '')
seems to sort the problem
is this plugin needed any longer now that wp offers custom post tempaltes: https://premium.wpmudev.org/blog/post-type-templates/
thanks,

]]>Hi,
I am quite new to WP,, using a theme that doesn’t have custom post templates. I want however to be able to have single image posts, so I downloaded the plugin “Custom Post Template” Version: 1.5, Author: Simon Wheatley.
I used all default settings (recommended) since I don’t know how to change anything…
The photo posts worked as you can see here: https://travelways.com/My-Photos/, but the tags don’t. For example if I click on “peggys-cove” tag, I get the content post I made, but not the photo posts
I need to have some help with this please.
PS: As instructed, I added at the top of each photo post this script:
—–
<?php
/*
Template Name Posts: Photo post
*/
?>
—-
I have no idea if in my case this is correct or not, but without it it doesn’t work.
Please help.
Thanks,
Tatiana

Hello,
Will you be updating this plugin to be compatible with WordPress 4.2.2?

]]>Does this plugin support custom post types ?
]]>Hey, I have been trying to get a custom post template added as an exception in the template-tags.php file of the WP 2014 theme. The code looks like this:
function twentyfourteen_post_thumbnail() {
if ( post_password_required() || is_attachment() || ! has_post_thumbnail() ) {
return;
}
if ( is_singular() ) :
?>
<div class="post-thumbnail">
<?php
if ( ( ! is_active_sidebar( 'sidebar-2' ) || is_page_template( 'page-templates/full-width.php' ) || is_post_template( 'single-presentation.php' ) ) ) {
the_post_thumbnail( 'twentyfourteen-full-width' );
} else {
the_post_thumbnail();
}
?>The issue is, the post template is not registering as an exception to the thumbnail rule. This means all posts under the template are by default 2014 thumbnails and not full width. Any help would be really appreciated.
Cheers.
]]>Please add the choice of template pages tags!
]]>Hello Simon,
Custom Post Templates is an incredibly helpful plugin. However, I’ve started to notice PHP Notices for new/unsaved posts when using the plugin with debug enabled. The notice is:
NOTICE: wp-content/plugins/custom-post-template/custom-post-templates.php:112 - Undefined index: custom_post_template_present
This was easy to fix by checking to see if the custom_post_template_present POST variable is set before continuing. I just added the following right above line 112:
if( ! isset( $_POST[ 'custom_post_template_present' ] ) ) return;
Any chance you could incorporate this into a future update to the plugin?
Thank you!

If I change the theme – all the posts forget which template they are using and revert to default.
I still have the same custom templates in my new theme.
How can rectify this quickly?
THanks
]]>Hmm, this has been asked but the instructions are confusing.
1) Install Plugin – OK
Upload custom-post-template directory to your WordPress Plugin directory –OK!
Go to the plugin management page and enable the plugin –OK!
Upload your post template files (see the Description for details on configuring these), and choose them through the new menu ??
So as a test i created a blank file called snarfer.php
<?php
/*
Template Name Posts: Snarfer
*/
?>Uploaded that file to my theme directory (where else?)
The post editor shows: This theme has no available custom post templates.
Expected result: Dropdown option with snarfer.php
So what′s the secret?
