Changes to post format templates not visible

Hi,

I want to adapt the existing WordPress post formats for my theme (standard, aside, link, etc.). I have already adapted the standard and aside types successfully (some time ago).

However, when I try to adapt a new format (e.g. link), the changes I make in content-link.php are not visible in the post. Even though I selected “Link” as the post format in the admin dashboard, it is displaying the post as a standard post. I know that because when I make changes in content-single.php (for the standard posts), it is visible in the post that is supposed to have a link format.

What could be wrong here?

My functions.php

add_theme_support( 'post-formats', array( 'aside', 'link', 'quote', 'standard' ) );

add_action( 'after_setup_theme', 'childtheme_formats', 11 );
  function childtheme_formats(){
    add_theme_support( 'post-formats', array( 'aside', 'link', 'quote' ) );
  }

The only two formats where my changes in the php files have an effect, are for standard and aside.

// EDIT

I can answer my own question: I forgot to adjust single.php in my childtheme, where I have the following now in order to add the link format (I can edit content-link.php now):

<?php
/**
 * The single post.<br>
 * This file works as display full post content page and its comments.
 *
 * @package bootstrap-basic4
 */

 if ( get_post_format( get_the_ID() ) == 'aside'  ) {
    get_template_part( 'content', 'aside');
 } 
 elseif ( get_post_format( get_the_ID() ) == 'link'  ) {
    get_template_part( 'content', 'link');
 } 
 else {
    get_template_part( 'content', 'single');
 }
// begins template. -------------------------------------------------------------------------
