    I’m getting to the end of development and one of the things that has been a constant issue is that I’ve got the following code :

    <ul id="nav">
    
<li<?php if ( bp_is_page( 'home' ) ) : ?> class="selected"<?php endif; ?>>
    
<a href="<?php echo get_option('home') ?>" title="<?php _e( 'Home', 'buddypress' ) ?>"><?php _e( '// Home', 'buddypress' ) ?></a>
    
</li>
    
<li<?php if ( bp_is_page( BP_HOME_BLOG_SLUG ) ) {?> class="selected"<?php } ?>><a href="<?php echo get_option('home') ?>/<?php echo BP_HOME_BLOG_SLUG ?>" title="<?php _e( 'News', 'buddypress' ) ?>"><?php _e( '// News', 'buddypress' ) ?></a></li>
    
<li<?php if ( is_page('local-networks') ) {?> class="selected"<?php } ?>><a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>/local-networks" title="<?php _e( 'Local Networks', 'buddypress' ) ?>"><?php _e( '// Local Networks', 'buddypress' ) ?></a></li>
    
<?php if ( function_exists( 'groups_install' ) ) { ?>
    
<li<?php if ( bp_is_page( BP_GROUPS_SLUG ) ) {?> class="selected"<?php } ?>><a href="<?php echo get_option('home') ?>/<?php echo BP_GROUPS_SLUG ?>" title="<?php _e( 'Groups', 'buddypress' ) ?>"><?php _e( '// Groups', 'buddypress' ) ?></a></li>
    
<?php } ?>
    
<li <?php if ( bp_is_page( BP_MEMBERS_SLUG ) ) {?> class="selected"<?php } ?>><a href="<?php echo get_option('home') ?>/<?php echo BP_MEMBERS_SLUG ?>" title="<?php _e( 'Members', 'buddypress' ) ?>"><?php _e( '// Members', 'buddypress' ) ?></a></li>
    
<?php if ( function_exists( 'bp_blogs_install' ) ) { ?>
    
<li<?php if ( bp_is_page( BP_BLOGS_SLUG ) ) {?> class="selected"<?php } ?>><a href="<?php echo get_option('home') ?>/<?php echo BP_BLOGS_SLUG ?>" title="<?php _e( 'Blogs', 'buddypress' ) ?>"><?php _e( '// Blogs', 'buddypress' ) ?></a></li>
    
<?php } ?>
    
<li><a href="<?php echo get_option('home') ?>/forums" title="<?php _e( 'Forums', 'buddypress' ) ?>"><?php _e( '// Forums', 'buddypress' ) ?></a></li>
    

    
<li<?php if (is_page('services') ) {?> class="selected"<?php } ?>><a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>/services" title="<?php _e( 'Services', 'buddypress' ) ?>"><?php _e( '// Services', 'buddypress' ) ?></a></li>
    

    
<?php do_action( 'bp_nav_items' ); ?>
    
</ul>

    As you can see I’ve got a members page, problem is if I go to the services or the local networks page, the members is highlighted too, Any ideas why this would do that, as Im pretty sure the logic is right?

    Cheers

    Chris

    I just wrestled with that issue here.

    A ‘members’ class was added to the body tag on pages under groups and blogs. BP_MEMBERS_SLUG or $bp->current_component are not very “precise” I guess.

    I wasn’t able to figure out why this happens. I managed to get it to work, sort of, with the combination of lines in my custom function for the navigation.

    So what did you end up using from that other post?

    Just this in the header?

    if ( $bp->current_component == 'activity' || $bp->current_component == 'profile' || $bp->current_component == 'wire' || $bp->current_component == 'messages' || $bp->current_component == 'friends')
    
$c[] = 'members';
    

    
if ( bp_is_page( BP_MEMBERS_SLUG ) )
    
$c[] = 'members';

    No, not in the header; in a function that puts classes in the body tag and then you can use those classes to highlight current in CSS.

    So in my theme I have something like this in header.php:

    <body class="<?php custom_body_class() ?>">

    And then a function custom_body_class in functions.php in the theme.

    It’s a different approach, but I noticed the same problem with ‘members’ getting added to just about any body tag. I wasn’t able to figure out why, but managed to sort of make it work by throwing the kitchen sink at it.

    I know, not very helpful…
