Highlighting current page but not it's subpages

Update your CSS to use this selector:

.widget_subpages_current_page > a

The “>” indicates that the styling should only apply to the direct descendent.

Thanks.
works perfect.

But i have another question.
Is there a way to also highlight the current section when using a custom menu?
The subpages are not included in the custom menu and it works if i select the section in the menu. If i select a subpage it doesn’t.

Thanks for your help.

Is it also possible to make it look like this:

-Main1.1
-Main1.2
-Main1.3
–Main1.3.1
—Main1.3.1.1 (Selected)
—Main1.3.1.2
–Main1.3.2

Found the solution for my last Problem:

edit in be-subpages-widget.php in line 129:

if ( in_array( $subpage->ID, $parents ) )
     $class[] = 'widget_subpages_subpage_is_selected';

and in style.css

.widget_subpages_subpage_is_selected > a{
font-weight: bold;
}

I know that this will be reseted when updating the plugin.

Instead of modifying the plugin directly, use the built-in filter be_subpages_widget_class.

In your theme or core functionality plugin, write a function that modifies the classes using that filter. You then don’t have to worry about losing your changes as new updates come out.

Look at the classes applied to the menu items in the custom menu. Typically there’s something like .current_page_parent or .current-page-ancestor that you can use to style
