Hello,
Ok... surely I must be missing something really obvious here for I can't imagine why it's so difficult to set a nav item active for arbitrary pages and forms in Drupal 6.
Basically, what I need to do is one of the following:
1. Set a navigation item active based on a particular node type, e.g. if I have a nav item called 'Members Directory', I would like that to be active whenever the user is viewing a node of type 'member' (created in CCK).
or, ideally
2. Set a navigation item active based on the URL, so if the nav item 'Members Directory' has the path 'directory', and the page I'm viewing has the path 'directory/member66', I would like to 'Members Directory' to be active based on the fact that 'directory' is the parent alias in the path.
There is a 'menu trails' module which looks like it will do what I want but alas no D6 version.
I can't imaging I'm the only one who needs this, so can anyone help and show me how this can be achieved? Have tried so many ways and after a week I think I'm at my wit's end!
Cheers,
Farez
