Highlight Parent in menu when on sub page

Hello @awol

This would require some additional JavaScript programming to detect the current category and highlight the parent menu element.

Here’s a thread on stack overflow with more details on this — https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15603950/wordpress-highlight-the-parent-menu-item-when-child-menu-item-page-is-selected

Hope this points you in the right direction!

Hi Eduard,
Thank you for your suggestion – I will follow that thread and see where I get. If anyone else has achieved this I would be grateful for any tips or code/instructions. If I succeed I will post again here.

Just wanted to add that the thread that Eduard posted has the solution to my problem without any alteration; this answer – https://stackoverflow.com/a/28586255
