BuddyPress.org

thanks for the input guys. I am currently on r1241, so maybe that is the issue. weird thing is, I did this fine on another button, but this one doesn\’t seem to want to work.

here is the working button:

<li<?php if ( bp_is_page( 'chat' ) ) {?> class="selected"<?php } ?>><a href="<?php echo get_option('home') ?>/<?php echo chat ?>" title="<?php _e( 'Chat', 'buddypress' ) ?>"><?php _e( 'Chat', 'buddypress' ) ?></a></li>

i gave up and did it my own way i basically looked at the URL and checked to see if it matched, if so, then use the selected class, if not, then a dummy class. use if you like:

<?php



global $current_user;

$username = $current_user->user_login;



function curPageURL() {

$pageURL = 'http';

if ($_SERVER["HTTPS"] == "on") {$pageURL .= "s";}

$pageURL .= "/";

if ($_SERVER["SERVER_PORT"] != "80") {

$pageURL .= $_SERVER["SERVER_NAME"]."".$_SERVER["SERVER_PORT"].$_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"];

} else {

$pageURL .= $_SERVER["SERVER_NAME"].$_SERVER["REQUEST_URI"];

}

return $pageURL;

}



$currentURL = curPageURL();



if ( $currentURL == "http://domain.net/members/$username/mystuff/stuff-home" ) {

$dynamicClass = 'selected';

} else {

$dynamicClass = 'NOTselected';

}



?>



<li class="<?php echo $dynamicClass; ?>"><a href="<?php echo 'http://domain.net/members/'.$username.'/mystuff/stuff-home' ?>" title="<?php _e( 'My Stuff', 'buddypress' ) ?>"><?php _e( 'My Stuff', 'buddypress' ) ?></a></li>
