I used Themler to create a DNN theme.

I want a different color and different color underline for the active menu item. I selected "active" state and applied it. But it is not loading on the theme. This is not working. Please, can you check this and can you advise us please?

Thanks!

Hi,

For first level items you can try adding native DDR menu token to the menu:
- open \Portals\_default\Skins\menu_test\Menu_2\SimpleTokens.txt file
- find the TOP level items and add SELECTED token with active class:
[?SELECTED] class="active"[/?]

For example:
<a href="[=URL]" [?TARGET]target="[=TARGET]" [/?] [?SELECTED] class="active"[/?]>[=TEXT]</a>

This should help.

jos,

What exactly links you're referring to?

Thank you,
Olivia
