I have created custom template for certain category. When I step into that category, I can see changes there. But posts from that category on home page still look the same as other posts. Is that possible for those posts on main page also to have a custom look? Thank you Hi.

You need to have a modified category selected through the posts > category menu applied to your category in order for a specific post template to take effect. If you want non-category based post customization, you might want to try Nathan Rice's <a href="http://www.nathanrice.net/plugins/single-post-template/" rel="nofollow">Single Post Template Plugin</a>. @her – From your description, I’d recommend you watch the video from this post which covers the steps you’re missing.

]]> Comment on ICE v1.2 now available by Jamie http://idealienstudios.com/projects/ice/v12release/comment-page-1/#comment-257 Jamie Tue, 29 Dec 2009 14:41:42 +0000 http://idealienstudios.com/?p=601#comment-257 Thanks for the praise Ervald - I have not yet had time to test / deploy a new version of ICE but will try to do so early in January. In reading about the <a href="http://wordpress.org/development/2009/12/wordpress-2-9/" rel="nofollow">custom post types functionality of 2.9</a>, I can see that the days of needing a separate plugin to handle what ICE does are limited. I'm very ok with that! I started it to make the process of managing "WP as a CMS" easier and it sounds like within the next couple of releases that functionality may be available through the core of Wordpress. I look forward to the day when implementing something like a <a href="http://idealienstudios.com/blog/wordpress/custom-field-query-quandry/" rel="nofollow">rideshare board</a> is as easy as <a href="http://www.gravityforms.com/" rel="nofollow">Gravity Forms</a> within the admin console and as shareable as plugins / themes are through <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/" rel="nofollow">Wordpress.org extend</a>.

I want to create a series of landing pages (posts) that use another theme (a simple one without the sidebars, footers ect). I copied the single.php file from that theme (has more files like .css, index, etc), renamed it to singlesales.php and copied it to the standard theme directory where also the single.php file is. In the new category (sales) I selected the singlesales.php theme, but when generating a new post in that category it still seems to pick the single.php (as I don´t see any changes in the resulting post layout ). Do I have to copy other files (like style.css, or index files and rename these as well)......?????? Any idea how to do this? the newly create category (in my case Category_sales) doesn´t pick up the salessingle.php.

It does not have anything to do with pages though. The methods that standard category templates can use to include sidebar widgets are respected through this plugin.
