如何获得菜单活动项

Question

I have a project that im working on right now.

I have developed it in Joomla, on the index page, I have a menu which shows the year.

I need to know how to code a php variable to get the active item name of this menu so I can show ( echo ) it where I want.

See the attached screenshot.

Answer 1

This should work

$currentMenuId = JSite::getMenu()->getActive()->id ;

Name:

JSite::getMenu()->getActive()->name;

or this

$menu = &JSite::getMenu();
$active = $menu->getActive();
$path = isset($active) ? array_reverse($active->tree) : null;
$thisPath = $path[(count($path)-1)];

echo $thisPath; //echo active menu id

Answer 2

The most simple method and sticking to Joomla coding standards is as follows:

$menu = JFactory::getApplication()->getMenu();
$title = $menu->getActive()->title;

echo $title;
