TOPIC: Can't get active tab to highlight.

Can't get active tab to highlight. 2 Years ago  
I had CustoMenu working great, but then I changed the settings in the Joomla Global Configuration as follows: 1) switched to search engine friendly URLs 2)use apache mod-rewrite 3) add suffix to URLs.

The links in my tabs went from this: bwpierpointinn.com/index.php?option=com_...;id=50&Itemid=55

To this: bwpierpointinn.com/area-attractions.html

Now, with the pretty new SEF URLs my menus no longer have the active tab highlighted. If I use the old-style longer URLs I get the active tab highlighted. But not with the new shorter URLs. Is there some way to get tabs to highlight properly now that I am using the Search Engine Friendly Settings?

Thanks,

--Geoff

I don't know why it doesn't work for you. Maybe it is just Joomla Cache getting in the way. Try to clean that.

Otherwise I would have to see the CustoMenu settings and the original menu items. Can you give me admin access?

There is some bug in CustoMenu, i think, that doesn't activate the items correctly.
But you can easily overcome this by adding the menu items to the "Active on menu items" fields.

There are tooltips on all options. If it still isn't clear what stuff is for, let me know, then I need to change the descriptions.

Thanks
