Hi

Is it possible to create a single WordPress post template using ACF?

I really hope so. As my client is struggling to keep all blog posts looking the same.

Many Thanks

Not really, ACF is for custom fields!

Yes it is, would be good if you could select a template for posts as you can for pages.

Thanks Elliott!!!!!!

Well you can do such thing
single.php :

<?php
  $single_type = get_field("single_type");
  
  if( $single_type == 'type1' ) {
    get_template_part("type1");
  } else {
    get_template_part("type2");
  }
?>

You should create type1.php and type2.php files in your theme directory.
I hope it is what you want to create.
