Tell us what you are trying to do?
I have a custom post type created in toolset where I created a looping view with all of my providers (custom posts) listed. The navigation item is "providers". But when I click on one of my providers (or posts) from the view, it brings me to a single provider page which does not have an active navigation anymore.

Is there a way to make the navigation remain active for "providers" view page and the single pages linked from this view?

What is the link to your site?

Is this what you mean?

That when you are visiting a single provider post you want the menu to be highlighted as if you were on the providers archive page (which is what the menu links to)?

In that case you will need to add some custom CSS where the selector identifies that you are on a single provider page (which you can tell from the body classes) and which then targets the menu item with enough specificity that it overrides the existing styles.

Try this:

body.single-providers > #top-menu > .menu-item-480 > a {
    color: #edbd73;
}
