I store my navigation in a separate nav.blade.php
file and use @include('includes.nav')
to show the navigation in each page. This works great but I lose the ability to highlight the current pages.
This was resolved here beautifully.
I have a second navigation which doesn't use the bootstrap default active
function, so I thought I'd address this here.
Page structure
I have a folder called user_admin
with it's own bootstrap navigation stored in a file called nav_user_admin.blade.php
.
This is then called into each page using @include('includes.nav_user_admin')
.
I include this in the head
@if(Request::is('route-name')) active @endif
Nav design
Each tab has bg-secondary
with text-light
. How would I then show bg-white
and remove the text-light
function when page active?
<div class="list-group list-group-flush ">
<a class="nav-link @if(Request::is('home')) active @endif" href="home" id="corner1" class="list-group-item d-flex justify-content-between align-items-center list-group-item-light list-group-item-action ">Dashboard</a>
<a class="nav-link @if(Request::is('groups')) active @endif" href="groups" class="bg-secondary text-light list-group-item d-flex justify-content-between align-items-center list-group-item-light list-group-item-action">Groups I've Created<span class="badge badge-light badge-pill">3</span></a>
<a class="nav-link @if(Request::is('')) active @endif" href="" class="bg-secondary text-light list-group-item d-flex justify-content-between align-items-center list-group-item-light list-group-item-action">Groups I've Joined<span class="badge badge-light badge-pill">8</span></a>
<a class="nav-link @if(Request::is('settings')) active @endif" href="settings" class="bg-secondary text-light list-group-item d-flex justify-content-between align-items-center list-group-item-light list-group-item-action">Account Settings</a>
<a class="nav-link @if(Request::is('profile_settings')) active @endif" href="profile_settings" class="bg-secondary text-light list-group-item d-flex justify-content-between align-items-center list-group-item-light list-group-item-action">Profile Settings</a>
</div>
The problem
Doing the above gives me a navigation with all tabs bg-secondary and all text blue? There is no difference between active and non active tabs.
