Events page in wp_list_pages()

[Cynthia]

Hey all-

My wordpress site pulls pages for the main navigation using wp_list_pages(). The trouble I’m having is that either

1) I use the events page as created by the plugin and that page doesn’t get the current page highlighting like other pages.

or

2) I use the calendar grid function tribe_calendar_grid() on a manually created events page, where i do get current page highlighting, but I cant display the month text, or the next/prev month links, etc. and they aren’t displayed with the tribe_calendar_grid() function.

Little help here would be nice

Hi Cynthia. We would definitely be happy to help you out here. I’m not sure I would be best equipped to handle the ramifications of this but hopefully our dev Jonah can. I’ve asked him to chime in directly here.

Hi Cynthia, do you have a site I can look at with an example?

[Jonah]

Try this:

add_filter('nav_menu_css_class' , 'special_nav_class' , 10 , 2);
function special_nav_class($classes, $item) {
if($item->title == "Events") {
$classes[] = "special-class";
}
return $classes;
}


Then you can target .special-class to style that menu item.

actually, I figured it out!

What tripped me up is that the calendar grid isn’t returned, its displayed, whereas some of the other links are returned. I apologize, I misread the documentation. 🙂

Thanks!

Awesome, glad to hear!
