[TYPO3-english] Active Link in Menu When Viewing Home Page

[Jan Bednarik]

Hi Chanda,

you need to create an extension template on the root page and in the 
root template set it as "Template on next level". In this extension 
template, place only 1 line of code into Setup:

globalMenu.alwaysActivePIDlist >

And that's it.

If you create this extension template via List module, make sure it's 
listed as second and the main template is first.

Regards

Jan
