Wrong menu component highlighted

[instantdecisif]

Hi!
Here is the website: http://www.lucilin.lu/v2
I have portfolio used for several type of contents:
– concerts
– projects
– bios
– videos

These content types can be found with the site menu in a very understandable and logical way.
However, if I go on a concert portfolio using a direct URL (ex: http://www.lucilin.lu/v2/?portfolio=butterflys-note-book-2), I do not get the “concert” menu component hignlighted as it should be, but the “bio” and “video” instead.

How can we correct this?

Hi Pierre,

Unfortunately this is something that WordPress doesn’t provide much functionality for, as theres no standard menu functionality to know from the single page what menu item to highlight. As it’s wrong for you, this css code will make it white instead:

.single-portfolio .menu-item.template-portfolio > a {
color: #fff;
}

Where should I put this piece of code?
Here?:
Appearence – Theme options – General options – Custom CSS
Is that right?

I did paste it there, but there’s no change. The menu items are still highlighted, and wrongly highlighted when coming through an external link.

Shouldn’t the code be written as?:

.single-portfolio .menu-item.template-portfolio a {
color: #fff;
}

Sorry, yes that is the correct place to put the code.

That code will work, but the css code directly above it isn’t closed – which is why it isn’t working.
