same submenu item for different menu items

Post by sergio_mi »

Hi,
in my menu i've got this situation

mmA
->mmiA
->mmiB

mmB
->mmiB
->mmiC

mmC
->mmiD
......

clicking one of 'mmiB's I've both mmA and mmB colored as 'selected'.
Does it happen because they have the same item?

how can avoid this problem? obviuosly trying not to rename items names.

thanks.

Hi,

Yes it happens because there are the same items for both. There are some page properties that you might use but I don't know that they will do what you want. There is a property called disablePagePage, if you use that and set it to true it removes item highlighting for parent menu items. There is also nobreadcrumb property which you can use in a style or an item and set it to true and it will turn off breadcrumbs for that item.

You'll note that this means the item will never get 'highlighted' So, unfortunately you can either turn it off completely, or turn off the parent item highlighting, or change the name so they do not show a 'match' on both of them.
