One of the links in my navigation is the page I’ve designated as my Posts page (in WP Settings > Reading).
With the original Nav Menu element, I set active styles in the element’s settings panel, and the menu link to my Posts page has the active styles.
With the new Nav (nestable) element, I also set the same active styles in the element’s settings panel (the same styles). The menu link to my Posts page does not have the active styles.
All other links are showing the active styles I’ve set. Only the Posts page does not.
I’ve double checked I’m linking to my posts page properly in the Nav Link element settings (Internal Post/Page > Blog).
Several students on a Bricks course that I teach are reporting the same issue.
Happy to record a video and/or provide a login if required.
There’s a menu with 3 top elements, the first one is just a megamenu, it’s not relevant. The other two are links within nestable nav element.
Standard page menu item turns red when you are on standard page - works fine.
Blog menu item doesn’t turn red when you are on blog page, and when inspected, it’s missing the [aria-current=“page”] atribute or anything else that could be styled to get it to work.
Thanks! It works if you choose internal post/page and choose blog
You had set the link to external; apparently, that makes a difference. Since it is an internal page, internal should be the first choice.
I’m using it with Meta Box custom fields so I need to use external page url. It works with standard pages so I hoped it would work with a blog page too. Any chance it could be fixed in the future?
I agree but it’s not working with static content too, when I set the url of /blog/ for a nav item inside Nav(Nestable) via the external Url option, it doesn’t work - but only for blog posts page. Category pages and other archive pages work fine same as standard pages.
