## Beskrywing

When setting the ‘Posts Page:’ to a custom page within the ‘Reading’ settings of
WordPress, it will by default, ignore that page’s set template.

“Posts page – Select in the drop-down box the name of the Page that will now contain
your Posts… any Template assigned the Page will be ignored and the theme’s index.
php (or home.php if it exists) will control the display of the posts.”

Reference: https://codex.wordpress.org/Settings_Reading_SubPanel

Plugin resolves the above issue, allowing WordPress to use the custom template set
for that specific page.

Found this plugin and had hoped it would work, but unfortunately does not. Guess
it is because it is many years old and not maintained.

I am looking for a plugin to allow using page’s templates in a post, this plugin’s
name matches my search, but unfortunately, it is not working as what I thought.
