    Hello,

    I’m writing a plugin which use custom post type (post).
    I’m working with Twenty Twelve theme.

    Two problems:

    1. If i create a new page (with default template) i can’t see it: when i click on “view page” i get only a blank page.
    2. When i activate my plugin i get this error:

    The plugin generated 2 characters of unexpected output during activation. If you notice “headers already sent” messages, problems with syndication feeds or other issues, try deactivating or removing this plugin.

    I saw on some post that can be that my plugin files there’s some space before or after php tag (<?php and ?>) but that’s not my case.

    Thanks a lot!

    N°2 resolved: one php file had:

    <?php someinstruction; ?>
<?php someinstruction; ?>

    now is:

    <?php someinstruction;
 someinstruction; ?>

    About nr 1 my code is:

    <?php
add_filter( 'template_include', 'custom_post_type_restaurant_view', 1 );
function custom_post_type_restaurant_view()
{
	 if ( get_post_type() == 'restaurant' ) {
        if ( is_single() ) {
            // checks if the file exists in the theme first,
            // otherwise serve the file from the plugin
            if ( $theme_file = locate_template( array ( 'single-restaurant.php' ) ) )
			{
                $template_path = $theme_file;
            }
			else
			{
                $template_path = plugin_dir_path( __FILE__ ) . 'single-restaurant.php';
            }
        }
		return $template_path;
    }
	elseif ( get_post_type() == 'menu' ) {
        if ( is_single() ) {
            // checks if the file exists in the theme first,
            // otherwise serve the file from the plugin
            if ( $theme_file = locate_template( array ( 'single-menu.php' ) ) )
			{
                $template_path = $theme_file;
            }
			else
			{
                $template_path = plugin_dir_path( __FILE__ ) . 'single-menu.php';
            }
        }
		return $template_path;
    }

}?>

    Thanks

    Ok resolved myself as explained here:

    https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Plugin_API/Filter_Reference/single_template

    with this code:

    <?php
function get_custom_post_type_template($single_template) {
     global $post;

     if ($post->post_type == 'my_post_type') {
          $single_template = dirname( __FILE__ ) . '/post-type-template.php';
     }
     return $single_template;
}

add_filter( "single_template", "get_custom_post_type_template" ) ;
?>
