How do I use a custom single.php template for my Custom Post Types?

  • I’m using Custom Post Types in my WP installation to create a, sort of, ‘database’ of bands. I plan on displaying each post/band listing as a SINGLE post, but make it look like a band profile/bio page.

    For example:

    …/bands/profile/the-band-name/

    Now, I can’t seem to finger out how to display a single entry properly… when accessing the link, the Custom Post entry displays as if it were a regular post. Is there a way to determine in single.php if you’re displaying a Custom Post type entry rather than a regular entry? Like, for example, is there an if statement like the following:

    if (post_type(‘band-profile’))

    Can anyone help with this?
