Buddypress site - sidebar widgets, some display active some do not

[Deesign]

Hi Team,

This request for assistance will require logging into the member network we created and concerns the side bar widget navigation for members. At this time 3/4 of the widget menu items highlight when actively on the page and then for some reason others do not.

Forums works, Job Posting Wall too, but not Member Feed or Groups.
Hoping to have them all function the same way and display bold when active - is that possible?

I realize this is a stretch, but our second request is for assistance to add an image similar to the Job Posting page to the other buddypress pages (that are not pages - but templates somewhere I guess) there is no visible option to edit Groups or Forums pages - but is it possible to add a header image to each inside of the template files? If you can point us in the right direction we can dig in.

Many thanks

Hey @DeeDesign,

For the menu highlight issue, please add this code in Theme Options > CSS. I’ll forward this as feature request so the mentioned BuddyPress pages will be highlighted.

.x-sidebar .widget.widget_nav_menu .current_page_item {
    border-color: #333333;
    border: 1px solid #333;
    border-left: 0;
    border-right: 0;
    margin-bottom: -1px;
}

For the second request, yes you need to edit the BuddyPress templates. You’ll need to check this documentation from BuddyPress: https://codex.buddypress.org/getting-started/customizing/

Hope that helps.
