Tell us what you are trying to do?
I'm currently using a content template for all products on my website. I want to create a NEW content template that is used on only one single product or product category, and specify that the existing content template NOT be used for that one product category.

Is there any documentation that you are following?

Is there a similar example that we can see?

What is the link to your site?

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Toolset offers the hook: wpv_filter_force_template
=> https://toolset.com/documentation/programmer-reference/views-filters/#wpv_filter_force_template

Which you can use to override the content template based on specific conditions.

For example:

add_filter( 'wpv_filter_force_template', 'func_assign_ct_dynamically', 99, 3 );
  function func_assign_ct_dynamically( $template_selected, $post_id, $kind ) {
     
    if($color=='red') {   // assuming $color value coming from taxonomy 
        $template_selected = 777; 
     } else if($post_id==2) {
        $template_selected = 999;  
    }
    return $template_selected;
}

Where:
- Please feel free to adjust the code as required
- replace 777 and 999 with the content template IDs

Hi Minesh

thx for your reply. I decided to go another route. Since I'm already using Beaver Builder and Beaver Themer, I decided to create a special singular template just for this one product. It was a bit easier.

thx!
