To add a custom template for custom post types you can use
single-{posttype}.phptemplate. You can look at the template hierarchy diagram for more details.For example if your post type is called
books, your filename for the template should besingle-books.phpIf you have created a custom post type
If you have created a custom post type then you need to create a template who’s name will be smiler to the custom post type for example if you have created a custom post type “product” then you will create a template with name product.php in your theme directory and to display a particulate post of your custom post type you will create another template with name single-product.phpthis template will be used to display your custom post and remember whatever custom post you create same name will be used to name your custom post type template and do not forget to add single in the beginning.
