 * Hello,
 * Menu items should be highlighted when you choose one.
    This didn’t work in all
   cases with me. After removing a menu item, and again adding it, I could solve
   this for most of the menu items. Only with the Home button, it still doesn’t 
   work. How can I also have the Home button being highlighted when you are on the
   Home page? See [http://www.ammoliteglassart.nl/](http://www.ammoliteglassart.nl/).
   Kind regards, Coen

 * Once more removing and adding again the Home menu item, resolved it.

 * Hey there Coen,
 * If you want your active menu item to be highlighted the same way as when hovered
   please add the following CSS:
 *     ```
       .site-navigation .current_page_item > a, .site-navigation .current_page_ancestor > a, .site-navigation .current-menu-item > a, .site-navigation .current-menu-ancestor > a {
       background: #24890d;
       color: #fff;
       }
       ```
   
 * Hope this helps.
 * Best regards,
    Bojan
