Hi – I have a site where I have a “news” menu item – build as a page, and then the different stories is collected through a category. Then I have redirected the category main page to the news page. As this works best for me.
I would like to have the news menu itme active when people are on a news story.
so is it possible to make an top-level-menu item active based on the url structure?

Hey jesperconrad,
The way the menu works is that the parent item is highlighted when you’re on its subitem page, not just any page in the category.
Unfortunately it would require quite some time and customization of the theme to achieve this, so I am sorry to tell you that this is not covered by our support. However if its really important for you to get this done, you can always hire a freelancer to do the job for you :)
Or try to use a menu plugin, some of them might have the functionality out of the box.
If you need further assistance please let us know.
Best regards,
Victoria
I will look into this. Thanks :)
