   Hi,

   i'm using the UnStandard theme but I can't seem to manage one thing - I want some kind of hightlighting of the page the user is currently.
   I mean - to indicate some how on the categories bar or something - how can I indicate where is the user now? My site is momzo.com

   Thanks in advance

   I guess you are using a custom menu, because it's supported in the wp_list_pages function.

   XHTML
   

   <ul id="menu">
   	<?php wp_list_pages('depth=1&title_li=');?>
   </ul>

   CSS
   

   #menu li.current_page_item a { /* the active page */ }

   As for the categories I found out the active category get current-cat class so that should take care of that styling too.
   

   .current-cat { /* the active cat */ }

   This is cool, but I have a slight problem implementing it in my menu.

   I have a custom menu with a link to a category template. The other two pages highlight fine when current, but not this category template. Any ideas? Code below.

   <ul id="menuenu">
   <?php
   wp_list_pages('depth=1&sort_column=menu_order&title_li='); ?>
   <li><a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>/?cat=62">Portfolio</a></li>
   </ul>

   Whaddya know, I figured it out...

   <ul id="menuenu">
   		<?php
   		wp_list_pages('depth=1&sort_column=menu_order&title_li='); ?>
   		<li class="page_item <?php if (is_category('62')) { echo "current_page_item"; }?>"><a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>/?cat=62">Portfolio</a></li>
   		</ul>
