how to make a current link have a css style in wordpress

Hi,

On my site in the navigation, when it is on a certain page I want that link to be a different colour depending what page it is on. How do I firstly style this in the style sheet and secondly what is the wordpress code i need to put in the menu navigation php file.

I have tried different ways in of doing it and it just isnt working. I cant seem to find much info on it and im very stuck.

Thankyou

 

You will need to check the page source and the li item class.

Example, in my blog (wordpress tut link in my signature) I have "free service" tab which stays yellow always, because i put "li.page-item-4357 a" different style css. the page item id will be different than yours.

 

Can send me the url the site.you mean when you click on the any page its become active with different color scheme according to page.You can do this using Jquery to change the style of the navigation bar at run time.you may try this i think this will help you?
