When I open a page in the admin directly, without clicking an item on the menu, the active menu item class doesn't update.
After looking around I noticed that this is controlled through common.js
Is there a way to update this based on the current page route?
I'm writing a new module at the moment that opens specific pages without using the menu and I want the active menu item to be updated.
Having trouble figuring it out.
Thanks in advance!

Of course, in common.js file, you could use the already used condition statement of:

Code: Select all

I'm working with 3.0.
Open Cart, as I remember, used to use:
if (getURLVar('route') == 'your_path/your_controller_filename') {
...
but now all I see is:
$('#menu a[href]').on('click', function() {
sessionStorage.setItem('menu', $(this).attr('href'));
});
in common.js
I'm calling up the pages directly by the URL, not through clicking the menu, so that active variable doesn't update on page load.

I guess I could use vqmod to add a line to the common.js
If you have a better way of doing please let me know.

This analogy is not entirely true. common.js file still use the getURLVar method to track in the route page from JS.andrewtite wrote: ↑Tue Feb 06, 2018 3:31 amI'm working with 3.0.

I have attached the common.js file that came with 3.0, please tell me what line that is on because I don't see it.
The only thing I see that works with clicking the menu: sessionStorage.setItem('menu', $(location).attr('href'));
It doesn't seem to work when you call the page directly without click a menu item....

So my solution that seems to work is I had to add the following to a vqmod...
<operation info="Set Active Menu Item">
<search position="before"><![CDATA[<script src="view/javascript/common.js" type="text/javascript"></script>]]></search>
<add><![CDATA[
<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
var routeEa = getURLVar('route').split('/');
var MenuHrefNew = $(location).attr('href').replace(getURLVar('route'), routeEa[0]+'/'+routeEa[1]);
sessionStorage.setItem('menu', MenuHrefNew);
});
</script>
]]></add>
</operation>
