There is the situation. I have created the custom post type - products withfuncionality like pages - I have to create hierarchy.

f.e:

  1. Chairs:
    • Oak Chair
    • Nice Chair

The weird thing happens with wp_nav_menu(). When I open the first level page Chairs and display all the Chairs childrens in theme, the nav menu for the li item Products, gets the .current-menu-item class, but when I open the child page f.e. Oak Chair, the class disapears.

Why is that and how to set .current-menu-item class also when child page is opened?

This same problem happens again :( WP Version 3.2.1

the ancestor-class .current-products-ancestor is not setted up :(

  • do you mean, that there is no .current-menu-item class on the child page?

  • Exactly. Only on parent page.

  • Actully, wordpress gives tag .current-produkts-ancestor to menu element when child page is opened. This solves my problem, actually. I can then add different color to this menu item.

Use this selector:

.current-products-ancestor

... to change the styles on that menu.
