Hi,

I'm using Static Pages, but the isActive property value is not being set.

Could someone please explain where item.isActive property value gets set, before being read within the following Partial file ?

Many thanks

Anyone ? Please ?

Must be a very common requirement.

The isActive property can be set via the internals, the API or explicitly. Please read the documentation on how to set explicitly:

In some cases you might want to mark a specific menu item as active explicitly. You can do that in the page's onInit() function with assigning the activeMenuItem page variable a value matching the menu item code you want to make active. Menu item codes are managed in the Edit Menu Item popup.

function onInit()
{
    $this['activeMenuItem'] = 'blog';
}

Thanks Sam,

So the Relax theme doesn't include menu highlighting 'out of the box' ?

I read that part of the documentation that you quoted and tried the code snippet, but it didn't work.

I'll give it another try.

Many thanks.

I've copied the code, but it just doesn't work at all.
