 * Hi all,
 * I’m trying to make my Cars subnav stay open when on child pages.
    ie:
 * Menu is:
    – Home – Cars (_on click opens ‘Ford’ and ‘Dodge’_) –Ford –Dodge – 
   Contact
 * Ford and Dodge Pages display thumbnails of relevant cars linking to individual
   pages about each car. However when clicking on a thumbnail and bringing up the
   individual page, the subnav menu of Cars disappears and I’m left with.
 * – Home
    – Cars – Contact
 * I want the Cars Nav to stay open on these individual page.. I’ve have a good 
   look around – only found this which is very simular but un-resolved. [http://wordpress.org/support/topic/show-subnav-of-sister-pages](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/show-subnav-of-sister-pages),
   is it something to do with the ‘depth’ => ‘3’ within the wp_nav_menu?
 * Many thanks in advance.

 * This code will display a subnav base on the wordpress menu, rather than wp_list_pages…
