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; }
You can add ‘post_status’ => ‘publish’ in your query to retrieve only objects with status publish , this will work for get_posts, query_posts or $wp_query and to include also custom taxonomies you can use tax_query in your args list
