I've set up the module, worked right away. I was able to use the me alias to give a fixed url to Drupal's menu system to set up a menu link in the left navigation block for the user profile page.

The only problem is that for some reason when clicked, the user profile menu link doesn't have the css active class assigned to it. It gets the hover attribute for rollover, but not the active class when on the corresponding page. So I can't use the menu's active css functionality right now, since one of the links is out of sorts with the others.

Thanks,
Joseph

Title: Drupal's Menu System » Drupal's Menu System & Me Aliases

Well, that was quick. After struggling with this for awhile, I posted to ask for support. Then while strumming my fingers on the table for a few long seconds, I decided to give it another shot, and went back and figured it out myself a few minutes later. Huh, go figure.

Would love to report my findings, but the truth is, I just unchecked all the buttons in the me alias settings, tried creating another menu link, and I put the path user/me to get the user profile to show as a link with active class enabled. Thank God it worked! One of the mysteries of the universe, I have no idea why it didn't work before. It seems all I did was try again...no rational explanation.
