Why custom post is not displaying according to template? - php

Question

I am using crowdfunding by astoundify to ceate custom post type download(which is campaign actually). I have created a signle-download.php page as a template but post pages do not seem to use this template. Is there anything else I have to do?
code for single-download.php
<?php
global $wp_embed;
get_header();
?>
<div class="bigcontainer4">
<div class="container">
<div id="content">
<div class="clearfix">
<?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); $campaign = new ATCF_Campaign( $post->ID ); ?>

<div class="project_image">
<?php if ( $campaign->video() ) : ?>
<div class="project_video">
<div class="project_videobox">
<?php echo $wp_embed->run_shortcode( '[embed]' . $campaign->video() . '[/embed]' ); ?>
</div>
</div>
<?php else :
the_post_thumbnail('blog-single-image');
endif; ?>
</div>

echo edd_get_purchase_link( array(

<div class="project_author_image_data">

<?php if ( '' != $campaign->author() ) :

endif; ?>

According to Wordpress documentation:
WordPress looks for template files with specific names in the current
Theme's directory and uses the first matching template file listed
under the appropriate query section below.
So, I guess, you have another template matching condition. And wordpress uses it to display your page.
Added from comment: May be you are using just another theme, not the one, your file resides in?
