Child Themes & Custom Post Types

    What started as a “is this what you mean” on a help request on another site has led to a help request here.

    I’ve created a child theme and the custom post types and taxonomies are working fine. Normally I’d create a custom version of single.php and archive.php but I see that you have them called content.php, content-archive.php.

    I’d hoped that content-inspirations.php would do the trick but no, it doesn’t.

    • Is there a way to do this?
    • Can it be added?
    • or is it just a limitation of the theme

    If it’s a limitation, that’s fine ??

    Thanks for using Tracks!

    Sorry the support for CPTs isn’t great. I’ve been meaning to fix that.

    In your child theme’s functions.php file, please add this function:

    
function ct_tracks_get_content_template() {

	/* Blog */
	if ( is_home() ) {

		/* Two-column Images Layout */
		if ( get_theme_mod( 'premium_layouts_setting' ) == 'two-column-images' ) {
			get_template_part( 'licenses/content/content-two-column-images' );
		} /* Full-width Images Layout */
		elseif ( get_theme_mod( 'premium_layouts_setting' ) == 'full-width-images' ) {
			get_template_part( 'licenses/content/content-full-width-images' );
		} /* Blog - No Premium Layout */
		else {
			get_template_part( 'content-archive', get_post_type() );
		}
	} /* Post */
	elseif ( is_singular() ) {
		get_template_part( 'content', get_post_type() );
		comments_template();
	} /* Attachment */
	elseif ( is_attachment() ) {
		get_template_part( 'content', 'attachment' );
		comments_template();
	} /* Archive */
	elseif ( is_archive() ) {

		/* check if bbPress is active */
		if ( function_exists( 'is_bbpress' ) ) {

			/* if is bbPress forum list */
			if ( is_bbpress() ) {
				get_template_part( 'content/bbpress' );
			} /* normal archive */
			else {
				get_template_part( 'content-archive', get_post_type() );
			}
		} elseif ( get_theme_mod( 'premium_layouts_setting' ) == 'two-column-images' ) {
			get_template_part( 'licenses/content/content-two-column-images' );
		} elseif ( get_theme_mod( 'premium_layouts_setting' ) == 'full-width-images' ) {
			get_template_part( 'licenses/content/content-full-width-images' );
		} else {
			get_template_part( 'content-archive', get_post_type() );
		}
	} /* bbPress */
	elseif ( function_exists( 'is_bbpress' ) && is_bbpress() ) {
		get_template_part( 'content/bbpress' );
	} /* Custom Post Types */
	else {
		get_template_part( 'content', get_post_type() );
	}
}

    Then you can create a file named content-inspirations.php to override content.php and a file named content-archive-inspirations.php to override content-archive.php.
