 * Can you disable “Highlight by next target” and check again?

 * Hi malihu,
    thanks for your quick reply. I disabled it. But I don’t work. Do 
   you have any other idea why it doesn’t work?

 * I does work now 🙂
 * Your menu links get the `mPS2id-highlight` class, so you only need to use it 
   in your CSS.

 * But the links don’t stay white, when I click on it or when I
    scroll down the
   page.

 * You have to use the `mPS2id-highlight` class in your CSS and style the links 
   however you like. For example:
 *     ```
       #slideNav #mainNav li a.mPS2id-highlight{
           color: #fff;
       }
       ```

 * Hi Malihu,
    Love the plugin, but I can’t figure out why it’s not assigning the
   highlight class when I manually scroll. [http://tester.laurelvail.com/portfolio/](http://tester.laurelvail.com/portfolio/)
 * It works for the clicked class, so it’s half working. do i need to change something
   in my settings?
    Thanks!

 * Can you disable “Force single highlight” and check again? I see that you have
   enabled “Keep highlight until next” so try to disable just “Force single highlight”.

 * I unchecked Force single Highlight and then also tried unchecking Keep Highlight
   until next. It still isn’t setting the highlight class.
 * Here’s the site- I moved it.

 * Could you try removing the empty lines above your doctype declaration? At the
   moment it’s like:
 *     ```
       <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
   
       	"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
       ```
   
 * make it like:
 *     ```
       <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
       ```

 * Oh! I found the issue. I was assigning the link to the “url/portfolio/#ID”, so
   it was linking ot just “portfolio/#ID”. When I have the link just go to the local“#
   ID” directly, it works!
    Thanks!!
