Creating multiple post templates

[Rellek]

I have a site where I want posts in certain categories to have a different layout than the rest. I found a solution using get_template_part and creating two single.php template files.

I am just curious to know if there is an easier/different way to approach this. Here is the code that I am using currently in my single.php file

<?php 

if (in_category('6')) {get_template_part( 'theme-single' );

}

 else {get_template_part( 'single-content' );
 }

?>

Thanks

You can select the layout on the edit screen of a post or use custom PHP code to change the layout in your child themes functions.php file:
