I also can’t get the parent to highlight, you will notice my other sections are all page based, news is the only one based on categories.

I can see the problem, I just can’t get my class into it’s
<li> tag which must be automatically generated

Hi Moshu

Perhaps I wasn’t clear – it’s just I have navigation with both pages and categories running side by side.

Currently the sub categories display but wont go away when I move away from that category

i.e. Category
Sub 1
Sub 2

Page
Sub Page 1
Sub Page 2
Sub 1
Sub 2

Both subs appear when they shouldn’t, it’s just the lack of complaince between pages and categories which forces me to use the IF.

I just need a way to exclude the sub categories when the parent is not active

Pretty sure the problem lies in this line here:

wswwpx_fold_category_list(“title_li=&child_of=”.$thiscategory->post_parent);

There is no readme with the zip. I need the IF statement to make the menu work, just like the one based on pages needed an IF statement the one for the categories does too surely?

Hi Moshu,

I did check the link but it doesn’t solve my problem, I am already using that plug in but the site is pretty low on details about how to implement it, particularly in an IF statement. As mentioned before I have no clue about PHP and just need to try and understand this code I have.

Thanks, yeah I knew about this – but he doesn’t have anything similar for categories – I can’t find anything to help. I just don’t understand what all this means:

$thiscategory = $wp_query->post;

if($thiscategory->post_parent!=0)

{

wswwpx_fold_category_list(“title_li=&child_of=”.$thiscategory->post_parent);
