Hello,

I have a WordPress Archive and on child taxonomy I would like to highlight the current taxonomy page. See hidden link, there are 3 links under the buton and the first one should be bold. For displaying links I use [wpv-taxonomy-link] in loop in View which is inserted in Archive.

Hello,

There isn't such a built-in feature within Views, I suggest you try these:
1) create a custom PHP function to check if current page is specific term's archive page, then return value 1
https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/is_tax

2) Use shortcode [wpv-conditional] to check above custom PHP function's result, if the result equal to 1, then display a highlight link, else display a normal link.

See our document:
https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/conditional-html-output-in-views/using-custom-functions-in-conditions/

Please let me know if you need more assistance for it.

Hi Luo,

I have found a working solution that you have made some time ago: https://toolset.com/forums/topic/setting-a-specific-style-for-the-active-taxonomy/
