[Resolved] Highlight Tab in Nav for ”sub-pages” of a component, not only the first page!
-
if you have a WP Menu (wp_nav_menu) for the main navigation, the menu TAB is highligheted only for the firs page of a component.
e.g: http://site.com/groups, http://site.com/members, http://site.com/forums.But if you are on a sub-page of the same component, you loose the highlight of the tab, which is not good usability.
eg: http://site.com/groups/name-of-group, http://site.com/members/name-of-member, …Is there a way to achive this?
I found this code on the Codex (http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_nav_menu#Adding_Conditional_Classes_to_Menu_Items):
<?php add_filter('nav_menu_css_class' , 'special_nav_class' , 10 , 2); function special_nav_class($classes, $item){ if(is_single() && $item->title == "Blog"){ //Notice you can change the conditional from is_single() and $item->title $classes[] = "special-class"; } return $classes; } ?>But it didn’t help me yet getting the result I am looking for.
Anyone who has a clue about this?

The fix in that ticket is going to be included in BuddyPress 1.6. You’d need to edit the file(s) and make the changes manually
Ok, thanks for the answer, Paul!
The problem is that I don’t know where to start. Should I copy all the code from the ticket in functions.php (don’t think so…). Or a part of it? And where.
If you culd be more specific, i’ll greatly appreciate.
Thanks.
Thanks a lot, aces! That did it. And yeah, of course I’ve written this down in my “production notes” to keep in mind that I modified that core file and what and why I did it.
Big thank you to you, man!
