Single theme template for custom post by slug

[ericjuden]

I was working on adding a custom template for an individual post in my custom post type and discovered that you could only make a single-{post-type}.php. This patch adds the ability to make single-{post-type}-{slug}.php

It's pretty straight forward, and only adds 1 line of code to wp-includes/theme.php

Relative path.

+1 from me.

Pages and Taxonomies are supporting slugs.

Function has moved to template.php

I just updated the patch. The get_single_template() function was moved into wp-includes/template.php as of WordPress 3.4.

Relative path, proper formatting

Updated for 3.5

I'd like this as well, or at the very least {post_type}-{slug}.php like pages get.

It shall be done.

In 34800:

Add single-{post_type}-{post_name}.php to the top of the template hierarchy for single posts.

This is consistent with page and taxonomy templates, which support slugs as well.

Props ericjuden, johnbillion.
Fixes #18859.
