sis. This is very useful to customize the layout of pages added by plugins that
use Custom Post Types. Want a new sidebar with custom widgets on that custom pos
t type? Boom! it can be done now. Ok we found that some of the plugins register
custom post types and use the page template, instead of the single template, if

e it to single-plugins_custom_post_type.php. You can generally find the custom p
ost type used by the plugin via our CPT panel.
