Theme Builder — Single

One layout for every post, page, or custom post type item — built with dynamic tags instead of fixed content.

2 min read Updated July 28, 2026

A Single template controls how one post, page, product or custom-post-type item is displayed. Instead of fixed text and images, its widgets pull from dynamic tags — the title, featured image, content, author and meta of whichever item is being viewed — so one template renders every item of the types it’s assigned to.

Requires: Tiger Elements Pro. In the Free plugin this feature appears as an “Upgrade to Pro” card.

Where: WP Admin → Tiger Elements → Theme Builder → Single card → Create.

Building a single template

  1. Create a new template and set its Template Type to Single (Page/Post).
  2. Add widgets and bind their content to dynamic tags (Post Title, Featured Image, Post Content, author, custom fields) instead of typing static text.
  3. Set the Display ConditionsAll Singular for one layout across everything, All Posts / All Pages, a specific post type, or even one specific post or page.
  4. Publish.

How it renders

On any single item that matches, Tiger takes over the page template and renders your design between the site’s header and footer, inside the main content area. There’s no manual loop to build — the template’s dynamic widgets read the current queried object automatically, which is what lets a single layout serve every matching item. Tiger’s own single-post CPT is excluded, so your editing screens are never affected.

Which post types it covers

A Single template can target any public post type: use All Singular for one universal layout, or scope to a particular type (for example a custom “Portfolio” or WooCommerce products) so each type gets its own design. When two Single templates could apply, the more specific condition wins, then the lower Priority number, then the older template.

Troubleshooting

The template shows the wrong content or none at all.

Make sure your widgets use dynamic tags rather than static text — static widgets show the same fixed content on every item. Confirm the template is Published with a matching Include condition.

My theme’s single layout still appears.

Check that the template’s type is Single and its conditions match the item you’re viewing. If Elementor Pro is active with “yield to Elementor Pro” enabled, Tiger defers to it.

Frequently asked questions

Its widgets use dynamic tags, so each post fills in its own title, image, content and meta at render time.

Yes — scope the template’s display conditions to that post type.
