<p>This plugin is meant to solve the problem of highlighting “parent” pages for Custom Post Types in the menu and lists of pages. It integrates with custom menu output as well as output for any functions like <code>wp_list_pages()</code> that utilize the <code>page_css_class</code> or <code>nav_menu_css_class</code> filters. When viewing a custom post type, the assigned “parent page” will be indicated with standard WordPress classes (e.g. current_page_item) in navigation menus and lists of pages.</p>
<h4>Usage</h4>
<ol>
<li>In the admin, navigate to <strong>Settings > Custom Post Type Parents</strong></li>
<li>For each custom post type, use the dropdown to select a “parent page”</li>
</ol>
<p>Menus and lists of pages will now have the appropriate classes applied to the specified parent pages. Additionally, Custom Post Type Parents will apply these classes to <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-section-navigation/" rel="ugc">Simple Section Navigation</a> widgets, if the plugin is installed.</p>
<h4>Classes</h4>
<p>Custom Post Type Parents applies the following classes to parent and ancestor pages (all classes are consistent with default WordPress classes and are backwards compatible).</p>
<p><strong>Parent</strong><br />
* current-menu-parent<br />
* current_page_parent<br />
* current-custom-post-type-parent<br />
* current-{post type}-parent</p>
<p><strong>Ancestor</strong><br />
* current-menu-ancestor<br />
* current_page_ancestor<br />
* current-custom-post-type-ancestor<br />
* current-{post type}-ancestor</p>

<p>With this plugin you can create a link to post-new.php (the place to create a new page) that includes the desired parent_id of the new page. This allows you to create links in the front end of the website like “Add a new page to this section” or “Create a new sub-page”. This is extremely useful when developing custom themes to add useful backend links on the front end of the site for users who have editing access. For using wordpress as a CMS, you really want to let the user avoid going through the clunky manage pages interface…</p>
<h4>Features</h4>
<ul>
<li>This should be a feature of wordpress</li>
<li>I can’t believe this isn’t built into wordpress</li>
<li>This has to rely on javascript because there’s no suitable hook to do it another way</li>
<li>Did I mention this should be built into wordpress?</li>
</ul>
<h4>Feedback</h4>
<p>Doubt you’ll have any, but if you do, you can go to my website (http://theoephraim.com)<br />
I was thinking about making some functions to actually spit out the links, but since were talking about developing custom themes, you may as well just hardcode it.</p>
