Summary

Post template is intended to be used for single post pages.

Usage

Wordpress

In Wordpress the Post template is used to design the look of a single post. It is exported as a single-post.php file.

WordPress uses this file to generate a post when no custom post template is selected under the Post Options in the WordPress admin.

You can also select Post template as a template for any page or post in the WordPress admin under the Page Attributes block when editing a page and in the Post template block when editing a post:

Joomla

The main difference between Joomla Page Template and Post Template is that Post Template contains metadata like Author, Published Date, Hits, Category, etc.

Once the metadata is disabled for the article from the Joomla back-end, the article will have Page Template styling. If at least one post header icon is enabled, the article will have Post Template styling.

To create a page that will have Post Template styling, follow these steps:

  1. Hover over the Content tab and select Article Manager >> Add New Article.
  2. Enter the details of the page and press "Save & Close".
  3. Hover over the Menu tab >> choose a menu >> Add New Menu Item.
  4. Select Single Article in Menu Item Type.
  5. Press "Select Article" in the Required Settings block to choose the necessary article.
  6. Make sure you have any of metadata options enabled under the Article Options.
  7. Click "Save & Close" to save the menu item.

If no metadata is chosen from the list under Article Options, the article will use the styling of the Page Template.

Magento and PrestaShop

There are no Post Templates for PrestaShop and Magento themes, as they do not support posts.
