I had the same problem. I updated to the latest version (1.3.9) and the drop down (css) disappeared.

I restored my site (with the older plugin version) and the menu css came back as normal.

jgirdwood – did you discover what other plugin(s) that was the issue?

🙂 !!!! Fixed it! Thank you for your help!

The code now is:

<ul>
<li<?php
                if (is_front_page())
                {
                echo " id=\"current\"";
                }?>>
                <a href="<?php bloginfo('url') ?>">Home</a>
        </li>
          <li<?php
                if (is_page('about'))
                {
                echo " id=\"current\"";
                }?>>
                <a href="<?php bloginfo('url') ?>/about">About</a>
        </li>
          <li<?php
                if (is_page('lessons'))
                {
                echo " id=\"current\"";
                }?>>
                <a href="<?php bloginfo('url') ?>/lessons">Lesson Pricing</a>
        </li>
          <li<?php
                if (is_page('student-gallery'))
                {
                echo " id=\"current\"";
                }?>>
                <a href="<?php bloginfo('url') ?>/student-gallery">Student Gallery</a>
        </li>
           <li<?php
                if (is_home())
                {
                echo " id=\"current\"";
                }?>>
                <a href="<?php bloginfo('url') ?>/blog">Blog</a>
        </li>
           <li<?php
                if (is_page('contact'))
                {
                echo " id=\"current\"";
                }?>>
                <a href="<?php bloginfo('url') ?>/contact">Contact</a>
        </li>

</ul>

Thanks again!

I am having a similar problem. Anyone that can help I greatly appreciate it. I also want the current page to be highlighted. Here is the code I am using in my header template: (I have also used plugins which I talk about below the code.

<div id="mainnav">
<ul id="mainnav">

        <li<?php
                if (is_home())
                {
                echo " id=\"current\"";
                }?>>
                <a href="<?php bloginfo('url') ?>">Home</a>
        </li>
          <li<?php
                if (is_page('about'))
                {
                echo " id=\"current\"";
                }?>>
                <a href="<?php bloginfo('url') ?>/about">About</a>
        </li>
          <li<?php
                if (is_page('lessons'))
                {
                echo " id=\"current\"";
                }?>>
                <a href="<?php bloginfo('url') ?>/lessons">Lesson Pricing</a>
        </li>
          <li<?php
                if (is_page('student-gallery'))
                {
                echo " id=\"current\"";
                }?>>
                <a href="<?php bloginfo('url') ?>/student-gallery">Student Gallery</a>
        </li>
           <li<?php
                if (is_page('blog'))
                {
                echo " id=\"current\"";
                }?>>
                <a href="<?php bloginfo('url') ?>/blog">Blog</a>
        </li>
           <li<?php
                if (is_page('contact'))
                {
                echo " id=\"current\"";
                }?>>
                <a href="<?php bloginfo('url') ?>/contact">Contact</a>
        </li>
</ul></div>

It works fine for every page except the blog page which is my “posts page.” I have tried using the plugins Menu Maker and WP Menu Manager and get the exact same result. The problem I am having is when you navigate to the the blog page (where the posts are) it isn’t getting recognized as a “current page.” I have checked this with Firebug. FYI, I am not having problems with the CSS, as every page but my blog page (posts page) is highlighted when current.

I also have a similar problem with breadcrumbs. Everything comes up on the breadcrumbs except the blog page, which is the posts page. When I navigate to the blog page, the breadcrumbs indicate I am on the home page.

I am absolutely stumped. Again, your help is greatly appreciated.
