Hi,
I added the news to the menu using ‘Add menu items’ selecting the News dropdown then adding News from the view all list. It’s showing as a ‘Post Type Archive’ in the menu structure.
When on the news article page the current-menu-item class is not in the list of classes applied.
This is the code I used to create the News custom post type.
$args = array (
'labels' => array(
'name' => 'News',
'singular_name' => 'news',
),
'hierarchical' => true,
'public' => true,
'has_archive' => true,
'menu_icon' => 'dashicons-text-page',
'supports' => array('title', 'editor', 'thumbnail'),
);
register_post_type('news', $args);
