 * I am using this plugin to create a submenu where the parent item is highlighted
   when one of its child items is active.
 * But the situation i have now is that when I choose the main menu item, the sidebar
   showing the submenu is all showing as active. I have tried and failed to find
   CSS to fix that.
 * When I go to one of the submenu pages, it works the way I want: the top menu 
   item is highlighted, and the page I am on, but not the others.

 * Is there a way to “un-current” the submenu items of that top level menu item 
   when it is active?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fsubmenu-items-highlighted-as-current%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
