menu_helper_active.module
Allows menu administrators to assign any path or pattern to set the active menu item.
The module can be used with PathAuto to select the active menu item by the selected content-type. For example, a press release with the url http://example.com/press-releases/2008/2008-01-10-big-news can be figured to always show the main 'Press Release' page (aka view) as active menu item.
Note:
- The active menu item will only be reset when there is no active menu item for the current page.
- This modules briefly resets the current path using menu_set_item() and menu_get_item() while a menu is being rendered.
- Showing Menu Context of Another Page on an Orphan
- Changing the Active Menu Items (but not the page nid)
- Breadcrumb and Menu Active for pages without menu items.
