Hello, this is my question, Hope someone can help.

In my project, There is dynamic submenu by inserting other animals inputed by user.

the menu is like this: (user already add fish and tiger as custom animals)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Home       |     menu                    |    Admin      |    Host
                       cat                                                                 --tabid=100
                       dog                                                               --tabid=101
                       fish                                                               --tabid=110?OtherAnimalId=4748
                       tiger                                                              --tabid=110?OtherAnimalId=4749
                       Add other animals                                     --tabid=110



------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

the problem is when I click the fish or tiger, "Add other animals " always be highlighted. I suppose it it because they have the same tabid.
How to let dnn highlight the right submenu?

A lot of thanks if someone can help.

Thank you.

Hi Timo,

Thank you for your question.

I think the code is better than the description. The SolPartMenu.aspx.vb in /admin/skin was modified a little. New function AddDynamicNode(objNodes) was added in Private Sub BuildNodes(ByVal objNode As WebControls.DNNNode)


--------------------------------------------------
                 Private Sub AddDynamicMonNode(ByRef objNodes As DNNNodeCollection)
                        Dim ................
                        ot = objTab.GetTabByName("Add other animals", PortalController.GetCurrentPortalSettings.PortalId)                    --------find the tabid of "Add other animals" page
                        customAnimalList = CustomEntry_GeAnimalType(u.UserID)
                        For monnum = 0 To customAnimalList .Count - 1
                            customNode = New WebControls.DNNNode
                            customNode.ID = animalnum
                            customNode.NavigateURL = NavigateURL(ot.TabID, "") & "?AnimaltypeId=" & customAnimalList(animalnum).AnimalTypeID              ----------assign url to sub menu --tabid=110?OtherAnimalId=4748
                            customNode.Text = customAnimalList (animalnum).AnimalTypeID
                            For num = 0 To objNodes.Count - 1
                                If objNodes(num).Text.ToUpper = "YOUR ANIMALS" Then              ----------------find the "menu" Your Animals (which is "menu" in first post)
                                    parentNode = objNodes(num)
                                    parentNode.HasNodes = True
                                    parentNode.DNNNodes.InsertBefore(3, customNode)                 ---------"3" ensured that all custom animals added before "Add other animals" sub menu
                                End If
                            Next
                        Next
----------------------------------------------------------

Do you think it is a good way to do this? (Just ask and for learning, it is already like this)

How to solve the highlight problem? (if you click the "fish" or any other custom animal, the sub menu Add other animals got highlighted)

Thank you for your answer.

Best,
Chris
