Hi there,
i'm using a function I found in the codex to display "List topmost ancestor and its immediate children" I do this on a page with a custom post type, so not a page.
My Problem is I need the
ul Items to display the class "current-menu-item" to style it.
functions.php
if(!function_exists('get_post_top_ancestor_id')){
/**
* Gets the id of the topmost ancestor of the current page. Returns the current
* page's id if there is no parent.
*
* @uses object $post
* @return int
*/
function get_post_top_ancestor_id(){
global $post;
if($post->post_parent){
$ancestors = array_reverse(get_post_ancestors($post->ID));
return $ancestors[0];
}
return $post->ID;
}}I get the current post type also, to display different stylesheets for the CPTs (e.g a Illustrator Post has illustrator stylesheet, a photoshop post has photoshop stylesheet)
this is my sidebar:
<?php
$area = get_post_type();
global $post;
$postID = $post->ID;
$parent_title = get_the_title($post->post_parent);
?>
<ul class="clearfix">
<li class="parent">
<a href="<?php echo get_permalink($post->post_parent) ?>">
<?php echo $parent_title;?> v </a>
</li>
<?php wp_list_pages(
array('title_li'=>'','include'=>get_post_top_ancestor_id())
); ?>
<?php wp_list_pages(
array('title_li'=>'','depth'=>1,'post_type'=>$area,'child_of'=>get_post_top_ancestor_id())
); ?>
/ul>I found in the same codex page Markup and Styling and I am familiar with this on regular menus, but the example from the codex is just working for pages.
How can I make the same work for my custom post type? Right now the just have the classes "page_item page-item-XY" (XY is the id)
