Active link in navigation bar Bootstrap 3

Hello guys,

In my previous project written in Yii 1.1x

I used following code to make a link in my boostrap navigation bar active


$this->menu = array(

array('label' => 'Menu'),

array('label' => 'Profile', 'url' => '#', 'active' => true)

);

Now in my Yii2 project, bootstrap 3, this approach doesn’t work.

Can anyone suggest how can I make a link active in navigation bar?

I use following code in my column1.php layout file to render navigation bar


<div>

<?php

echo \yii\bootstrap\Nav::widget([

'items' => $this->menu,

]);

?>

</div>

Thanks in advance.

try SideNav, "active" attribute works.

Thanks for suggestion I will try it out.

Looks like site.css not contain "active" class.

try to add this code:




.nav li.active a, .nav li.active a:hover  {

    background-color: #08D;

    color: white;

}



Such a shame since solution was so simple, thanks very much!

Next time I need to be more careful
