 * Hi there! I’m trying to highlight my menu but I have a problem when I’m in a 
   single post. If i go to (exampel) “Movie” -category then it works and gets highlighted
   but when I’m in a single post in “Movie” then my link doesn’t get highlighted.
   Here’s my code:
 *     ```
       <li<?php
       if (is_category('movie') || in_category('3') && !is_single())
       {
       echo " id=\"current\"";
       }?>>
       <a href="<?php bloginfo('url') ?>/show/movie">Movie</a>
       ```
   
 * What’s wrong with this? Have patience with my English, I’m Swedish 🙂

 * Hi!
 * I wonder exactly the same! I use the same code and it works for the main pages
   but not for the subpages unfortunately, any help would be welcome!
 * Thanks
