Re: [archived] glx_hl_current highlight current article

I made an update to this plugin.

Now it comes with two tags, one to check current article and one to check the current section

See first post.

note that the tag <code><txp:glx_hl_current /></code> now is gone and should now be <code><txp:glx_hl_current_article /></code> instead.

I must have missed this one when it came out. I’ll be using this a lot. Many thanks.

Re: [archived] glx_hl_current highlight current article

this sounds great, any chance it could be expanded to include categories as well as sections? so that if the current page selected is either a cat or section then it should highlight the link? in my case i am using two sections in the nav, and the others are pages which are assigned to cats which i want to highlight too.

I can’t get it working either (glx_hl_current_article that is)

Re: [archived] glx_hl_current highlight current article

The correct use is txp:glx_hl_current_article and not txp:glx_if_current_article, as the help suggests.

This solved the problem for the person who suggested it in Johan’s blog, but it’s still not working for me. Or maybe I’m not using it correctly.

I’m using it to highlight the current article in in a navigation list. Here’s an example (the markup was simplified):

<code><ul>
<li id=“dogs”><a href=”/pets/dogs”<txp:glx_hl_current_article class=“selected” />>Dogs</a></li>
<li id=“cats”><a href=”/pets/cats”<txp:glx_hl_current_article class=“selected” />>Cats</a></li>
</ul></code>

Is this the correct use for this plugin?

Thank you.

Re: [archived] glx_hl_current highlight current article

ya… same problem. I don’t think $pretext is a variable you can grab anymore. I don’t know where it’s coming from, as the plugin has not too much else happening… for me it is doing the opposite — if it should be active it is not and when it shouldn’t be active it is. Thanks…

Re: [archived] glx_hl_current highlight current article

I was the person who had posted in Johan’s blog. But I forgot to post back here, sorry. Anyway, I’m using <code><txp:glx_hl_current_article class=“current” /></code> and its working fine for me. Are you sure you have done everything right? Do you have a class <code>.selected</code> in your css? Have you activated the plugin?
