Using single.php from plugin folder instead of default template folder
I think a hook into template_include like described here could be a proper way to do this. Code could be like this: add_filter(‘template_include’, ‘my_plugin_templates’); function my_plugin_templates( $template ) { $post_types = array(‘post’); if (is_singular($post_types)) { $template=”path/to/singular/template/in/plugin/folder.php”; } return $template; }
