I was wondering if anyone knew how to set up a single template for multiple custom post types. For example - I don't want to set up multiple templates that do the exact same thing.
Code
I found the following snippet while searching and it doesn't seem to work. I have placed this in functions.php in the theme I am using.
add_filter( 'single_template', function( $template ) {
$cpt = [ 'available-properties', 'leased-sold', 'norway' ];
return in_array( get_queried_object()->post_type, $cpt, true )
? 'path/to/country-single.php'
: $template;
} );
Found the answer
This seems to work great!
add_filter( 'template_include', function( $template )
{
// your custom post types
$my_types = array( 'available-properties', 'leased-sold' );
$post_type = get_post_type();
if ( ! in_array( $post_type, $my_types ) )
return $template;
return get_stylesheet_directory() . '/page-content__projects-single.php';
});

I have develop a custom template for woocommerce checkout page and added all templates that I need to change specifically order_review.php in plugin/woocommerce/checkout/order_review.php and on order page it works perfect.
From Order page I can remove some products or add products through ajax and here is my ajax code.
ob_start();
woocommerce_order_review();
$woocommerce_order_review = ob_get_clean();
$response = array(
'cart_total' => WC()->cart->total,
'cart_item_key' => $new_key,
'fragments' => apply_filters(
'woocommerce_update_order_review_fragments',
array(
'.woocommerce-checkout-review-order-table' => $woocommerce_order_review,
)
),
);
if ( ! empty( $data ) ) {
$response['cartflows_data'] = $data;
}
return $response;
And the woocommerce_order_review(); loads woocommerce default template instead of template from my plugin.
WooCommerce does not look in plugin folders for templates by default. You need to use the filter woocommerce_locate_template in your plugin to tell WooCommerce to look in your plugin folder for templates. The solution is outlined by SkyVerge in this blog post: https://www.skyverge.com/blog/override-woocommerce-template-file-within-a-plugin/
I am including the solution here in case the post is every removed for some reason:
function myplugin_plugin_path() {
// gets the absolute path to this plugin directory
return untrailingslashit( plugin_dir_path( __FILE__ ) );
}
add_filter( 'woocommerce_locate_template', 'myplugin_woocommerce_locate_template', 10, 3 );
function myplugin_woocommerce_locate_template( $template, $template_name, $template_path ) {
global $woocommerce;
$_template = $template;
if ( ! $template_path ) $template_path = $woocommerce->template_url;
$plugin_path = myplugin_plugin_path() . '/woocommerce/';
// Look within passed path within the theme - this is priority
$template = locate_template(
array(
$template_path . $template_name,
$template_name
)
);
// Modification: Get the template from this plugin, if it exists
if ( ! $template && file_exists( $plugin_path . $template_name ) )
$template = $plugin_path . $template_name;
// Use default template
if ( ! $template )
$template = $_template;
// Return what we found
return $template;
}
You have to override WooCommerce Template
woocommerce/templates/checkout/review-order.php and Put this file in your theme folder themes/yourthemename/woocommerce/checkout/review-order.php
define( 'AMP_QUERY_VAR', apply_filters( 'amp_query_var', 'amp' ) );
add_rewrite_endpoint( AMP_QUERY_VAR, EP_PERMALINK );
add_filter( 'template_include', 'amp_page_template', 99 );
function amp_page_template( $template ) {
if( get_query_var( AMP_QUERY_VAR, false ) !== false ) {
if ( is_single() ) {
$template = get_template_directory() . '/amp-single.php';
}
}
return $template;
}
If you're looking to make your site AMP compatible without a plugin it would take a lot more work than the function referenced. Have you tried the official AMP plugin? I help out in the support forums if you want to post the question there, happy to help out from there.
I built a custom template page named Single Listing. permalink for this page is / homes /
But I'd like to show this custom template page for all the urls formatted like this homes/*
I am new to wordpress so any help or suggestions would be welcome.
Thanks.
Not tested, but this might be helpful for you.
add_filter( 'template_include', 'portfolio_page_template', 99 );
function portfolio_page_template( $template ) {
global $wp;
$current_url_path = home_url( $wp->request );
$url_pattern = '/(^homes[\/\w]*)/gim'
if ( is_page() && preg_match($pattern, $current_url_path)) {
$new_template = locate_template( array( 'home-page-template.php' ) );
if ( '' != $new_template ) {
return $new_template ;
}
}
return $template;
}
We created a plugin with a new template and we want to hook the main theme function and return the main plugin function.
We tried it with:
add_filter( "page_template", "test" );
function test( $template ) {
if( 'plugin_name.php' == basename( $template ) )
$template = WP_PLUGIN_DIR . '/plugin_folder/plugin_name.php';
return $template;
}
and changed page template in theme functions with main function of plugin which runs template inside plugin:
add_filter( "page_template", "main_plugin_function" );
Is page_template the right filter to change theme template?
Thanks for help!
I think you should use template_include filter, this filter hook is executed immediately before WordPress includes the predetermined template file. This can be used to override WordPress's default template behavior.
For example
add_filter( 'template_include', 'portfolio_page_template', 99 );
function portfolio_page_template( $template ) {
if ( is_page( 'portfolio' ) ) {
$new_template = locate_template( array( 'portfolio-page-template.php' ) );
if ( '' != $new_template ) {
return $new_template;
}
}
return $template;
}

I have a website with some custom post type created with Ultimate CMS plugin.
In admin area, when I make a new search, the result is ok, but after that, when I'm try to make a second search, It give me an error "Invalid post type".
I also realize that the url it's not ok:
In the first search, the url is something like this:
http://www.site.com/wp-admin/edit.php?s=SearchTerm1&post_status=all&post_type=post&action=-1&m=0&cat=0&paged=1&mode=list&action2=-1
In the second search, the url is something like:
http://www.site.com/wp-admin/edit.php?s=SearchTerm2&post_status=all&post_type=Array&_wpnonce=4d88f268e4&_wp_http_referer=%2Fwp-admin%2Fedit.php%3Fs%3DSearchTerm1%26post_status%3Dall%26post_type%3Dpost%26action%3D-1%26m%3D0%26cat%3D0%26paged%3D1%26mode%3Dlist%26action2%3D-1&action=-1&m=0&cat=0&paged=1&mode=list&action2=-1
And the error message: "Invalid post type".
I deactived all of my plugins, I upgraded wordpress to the latest version 3.5.1, I reset permalinks to default, but this error still remain.
Any help would be much appreciated!
Thank you
I also came across this issue and found that it was a result of one of my functions in my functions.php file that was modifying the global wordpress query parameters.
It sounds like you edited the global $query object. If you used a hook such as 'pre_get_posts' and manipulated the $query object and you do not exclude the admin area, then any changes you make to the query parameters will also apply to the admin panel and it will display that error when trying to add in parameters that don't fit your search.
For example:
Let's say you have a search feature on your site, and when the user enters a search and goes to the search results page, you only want to display posts of a custom post type called $searchable_posts, then you would add a hook to your functions.php file like this:
function searchfilter($query) {
if ($query->is_search && $query->is_main_query() ) {
$query->set('post_type', $searchable_posts);
}
return $query;
}
add_filter('pre_get_posts', 'searchfilter');
This will make it so that any global default $query will only search for results that have a matching post type of $searchable_posts. However, the way it is written above means this will also apply to any global $query in the admin panel also.
The way around this is to structure your query like this:
function searchfilter($query) {
if ($query->is_search && $query->is_main_query() && !is_admin() ) {
$query->set('post_type', $searchable_posts);
}
return $query;
}
add_filter('pre_get_posts', 'searchfilter');
Adding in that !is_admin() means that your function will exclude anything in the backend administration panel (see is_admin ).
Alternatively, a safer way if you can, instead of using the global default $query is to create your own new WP_Query and searching using that instead - the codex has good examples of how to set that up.
I am also get the issue same as you and finally I got the solution.
We have to add $query->is_main_query() in IF CONDITION.
Below is the full code.
function acf_meta_value_filter() {
global $typenow;
global $wp_query;
if ( $typenow == 'your_custom_post_type_name' ) { // Your custom post type meta_key_name
$plugins = array( 'value1', 'value2', 'value3' ); // Options for the filter select field
$current_plugin = '';
if( isset( $_GET['meta_key_name'] ) ) {
$current_plugin = $_GET['meta_key_name']; // Check if option has been selected
} ?>
<select name="meta_key_name" id="meta_key_name">
<option value="all" <?php selected( 'all', $current_plugin ); ?>><?php _e( 'All', '' ); ?></option>
<?php foreach( $plugins as $key=>$value ) { ?>
<option value="<?php echo esc_attr( $value ); ?>" <?php selected( $value, $current_plugin ); ?>><?php echo esc_attr( $value ); ?></option>
<?php } ?>
</select>
<?php }
}
add_action( 'restrict_manage_posts', 'acf_meta_value_filter' );
function acf_meta_value_filter_by_slug( $query ) {
global $pagenow;
// Get the post type
$post_type = isset( $_GET['post_type'] ) ? $_GET['post_type'] : '';
if ( is_admin() && $pagenow=='edit.php' && $post_type == 'your_custom_post_type_name' && isset( $_GET['meta_key_name'] ) && $_GET['meta_key_name'] !='all' && $query->is_main_query()) {
$query->query_vars['meta_key'] = 'meta_key_name';
$query->query_vars['meta_value'] = $_GET['meta_key_name'];
$query->query_vars['meta_compare'] = '=';
}
}
add_filter( 'parse_query', 'acf_meta_value_filter_by_slug' );
I had a similar problem with a site a took over from other dev.
function anty_search_form( $query ) {
if ( $query->is_search ) {
$query->set( 'post_type', array('post', 'product') );
}
return $query;
}
add_filter( 'pre_get_posts', 'anty_search_form' );
Someone forgot to exclude this function from wp-admin page. So changing to this helped Invalid post type.
function anty_search_form( $query ) {
if (!is_admin()){
if ( $query->is_search ) {
$query->set( 'post_type', array('post', 'product') );
}
return $query;
}
}
add_filter( 'pre_get_posts', 'anty_search_form' );
At wp-admin when submitted the second search for a custom post type, I was getting the same error, "Invalid post type." The URL seemed long and incorrect. Anyway, the following code worked perfectly:
add_filter( 'pre_get_posts', 'tgm_io_cpt_search' );
function tgm_io_cpt_search( $query ) {
if ( $query->is_search ) {
$query->set( 'post_type', 'your_custom_post_type' );
}
return $query;
}
