How to change menu to highligh current page in theme Twenty Eleven?

  • I am currently using theme Twenty Eleven version 1.2 for a blog. We want to somehow change the theme so that the menu bar will highlight the current page the user is on. How do we do this? Is there a way to use the WordPress Dashboard to do this or does it have to be done by changing the code somewhere in the WordPress directory? Would appreciate anyone’s help in resolving this.

  • It does highlight the current page. It boldens the font.

    If you want to change this, you must first of all create a child theme.

    Child themes are the only recommended way of modifying themes and, in the case of the default themes, they are essential.

    Once you have your child theme set up and activated, you can add new rules to its style sheet via Dashboard –> Appearance –> Editor. You’ll probably want to alter this rule:

    #access .current_page_item > a, #access .current_page_ancestor > a {
  font-weight: bold;
}

    Cheers
