    Hi, I created a child for the Gateway theme and was able to enable the post formats. Now I’m trying to edit the CSS in a way my image posts use a full width template. I already read A LOT of threads here and in other forums but the solutions they post there don’t work for me. At this point I should say I know NOTHING about coding so, if you are kind to provide me with full specifications on how to achieve this, it would be much appreciated.

    Thanks in advance!

    PD: here’s a link to my website , and here is a link to an image post

    As it turns out, the way to achieve this kind of post (I’m talking about regular posts here, not a Custom Post), was to add this piece of code to the functions.php file on my child theme: 

    add_action('template_include', 'load_single_template');
  function load_single_template($template) {
    $new_template = '';

    // single post template
    if( is_single() ) {
      global $post;
      // 'cat-1' and 'cat-2' are category slugs

      if( has_term('cat-1', 'category', $post) ) {
        // use template file single-template-cat-1.php
        $new_template = locate_template(array('single-template-cat-1.php' ));
      }

      if( has_term('cat-2', 'category', $post) ) {
        // use template file single-template-cat-2.php
        $new_template = locate_template(array('single-template-cat-2.php' ));
      }

    }
    return ('' != $new_template) ? $new_template : $template;
  }
