Function Name: is_singular

The is_singular function is a WordPress template function that is used to determine whether the current page being displayed is a singular post or page. A singular post or page refers to a post or page that is being viewed individually rather than as part of a list or archive.

The function returns a boolean value of true if the current page is a singular post or page and false if the current page is not a singular post or page.

This function can be useful in creating custom templates for individual posts or pages or for adding specific functionality to singular posts or pages.

Example Usage:

if ( is_singular() ) {
    // Display custom content for singular posts and pages
} else {
    // Display default content for all other pages
}

In this example, the is_singular function is used to conditionally display custom content for singular posts and pages. If the current page is a singular post or page, the custom content will be displayed. Otherwise, the default content will be displayed.
