How about a link to the site in question so we can see exactly what the code is doing.
There are no classes associated with the links to indicate which is currently being viewed. How are you generating the menu?
The menu is being beign generated by pulling a list of posts.
So the site works as the first page displays content (a video), and a list of links that is pulling for the latest post in a category. So the links are the lists of posts that are just dynamically from a custom post query. I’m just not sure how to target the css to get the links appear as active states when the user is on a given page.
