    Hi - I am currently editing the Executive Theme – change colours/fonts etc:

    Executive Theme here: http://demo.studiopress.com/executive/layouts/cs/

    My site here: http://www.hh-wordpress.co.uk/vls/?p=64

    The home page button used to show up in the dark green colour when I was on that page - it now doesn't...

    However, if I go to any other page, the "current" selection changes to the dark green, just not on the Home page...

    Any suggestions anyone?

    Also this theme doesn't seem to allow sub pages within a section within the navigation to highlight the main button to show you are in that section.

    Is there a workaround for this?

    Any suggestions welcomed.

    Regards

    Gary

    Update - I can sort of see why this is not working.

    As the Home page is not really a physical page as it is made up of various widgets. Plus I have called the page "Welcome to VLS" as I didn't want it to say "Home" at the top... so to add this to the menu I had to create a custom link for the main menu.

    I have created a page called "Home" and if I add this to the menu this does then highlight green if selected. But then it doesn't have the slider widget at the top....

    Can anyone help on this please?

    PS: Navigation Label and Title Attribute are both called "Home" in this custom menu item

    I have fixed this issue - saw another post on here suggesting to someone to click "View All" on the pages window in the Edit Menus page. Lo and behold a link to my home wage appeared.

    So I dragged this into the menu and deleted my custom home button and lo and behold, the button highlights green when selected!
