You can control what template loads for any type of query via the Template Filters.
Here’s an example using home_template
that checks if posts_per_page
is equal to 1
, and loads single.php
in that case.
function wpd_home_template( $home_template="" ){
if( get_option( 'posts_per_page' ) == 1 ){
$home_template = locate_template( 'single.php', false );
}
return $home_template;
}
add_filter( 'home_template', 'wpd_home_template' );
