Hi Shovan,

Thank you for contacting us and I'd be happy to assist.

If you'll check your active theme's "index.php" file (that controls the output for the default pages), you'll see that the code with the "the_content()" function is included in the div with class "container", to show the current page's content.
( screenshot: hidden link )

However, in the file "single.php" (that controls the output for the single post pages), no content is added inside that div with class "container".
( screenshot: hidden link )

This is why the content is showing properly on the single pages, but not on the single "definition" posts (and on other post types).

You can copy the missing code from the theme's "index.php" file into the "single.php" file and the content from the assigned template will start showing.

I hope this helps and please let me know if you need any further assistance around this.

regards,
Waqar
