I swear it's something simple but I can't figure this out.

I've added a new menu choice 'Tier Discounts' under the Marketing menu. It's a copy of the existing Discounts system so it has all the same pages as Discounts, just renamed to TierDiscounts.

This Tier Discounts menu has a few child pages involved just like the Discounts system. So I want the Marketing menu to stay expanded and Tier Discounts highlighted when those child pages are rendered. Exactly how you have the Discounts pages work under the Marketing menu.

But I cannot figure out how that happens. I've updated /App_Data/adminbreadcrumb.xml and I've modified /Admin/Helpers/AdminBreadCrumbExtension.cs accordingly.

But it still won't keep the Marketing menu open when I edit a tier discount. It works for main Index view. But as soon as I go into the edit view, the Marketing menu collapses again.

Any suggestions on where else to look?

Please look into the code in the admin Dashboard controller. Look at the code in #region Navigation. Function is GetSelectedItem()

OMG that was it !!! Thank you.

So much hard-coded effort on persisting the state of the menu. Seems like a custom attribute on certain actions would be so much easier.
