Different layouts for Loop Single Posts

[johnsojc 0]

Been trying to create my own unique child theme based on Pagelines to redesign my blog http://www.remixthevideo.com. I would like for the header part of the single post to be different from what I have on the index and archives. I am kind of at a loss at how to do this.. I was thinking creating a single.php for my child theme? Test site: http://www.musictweetlinks.com

What I mean by header part is I would like the layout of the post title, date, author and comments to be different.

well you can always override the template.postloop.php in your child theme, then edit to your heart's content.

It's possible to create a different header part by creating a single.php file. Do you already have an idea of how you want the header to look?

Alright, I think I know what I need to do. Duplicate the

<div class="post-title-section fix">

and move the original below

<?php if(pagelines_show_excerpt( get_the_ID() )): // Post Excerpt ?>

and move the duplicate below

<?php  if(pagelines_show_content( get_the_ID() )): // Post and Page Content ?> 

and edit that. Must have been too tired to figure this out last night. Thanks! By the way, the comment count displays "1 Comments" and not "1 Comment" out of the box for Pagelines from the code below:

a rel="nofollow" class="comments-num" href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>#comments" title="<?php _e('View Comments', 'pagelines');?>"><span><?php comments_number(0, 1, '%'); ?></span> <?php _e('Comments','pagelines');?></a

I changed it to:

a rel="nofollow" class="comments-num" href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>#comments" title="<?php _e('View Comments', 'pagelines');?>"><?php comments_number('Comment', '1 Comment', '% Comments'); ?></a

To display it correctly.

Just was thinking... If I would like to do full posts on the front page, changing the code above would produce the same results on all full posts including the front page and single posts. I would like to edit only the single post appearance..
