Hi Chanda and Jan,
There is also a different approach: remove the shortcut page 'home' entirely and
prepend a link to the site-root home page to the menu.
Some examples:
globalMenu {
....
stdWrap.preCObject = TEXT
stdWrap.preCObject {
typolink.parameter = {$pages.home}
wrap.cObject = TEXT
wrap.cObject {
value = <span class="active">|</span>
if.value = {$pages.home}
if.equals.data = TSFE:id
}
}
....
where {$pages.home} is of course a constant with the id of the site root page.
Or a different implementation in an old thread here:

I like it because I don't like spreading the Typoscript templates all over the
page tree. It also avoids the additional realurl issues and you don't have that
double home page.

Hi Chanda,
you need to create an extension template on the root page and in the root
template set it as "Template on next level". In this extension template, place
only 1 line of code into Setup:
globalMenu.alwaysActivePIDlist >
And that's it.
If you create this extension template via List module, make sure it's listed as
second and the main template is first.

Hello Jan,
Since my last response I have got the Home link to show as active, just took
some playing with to figure out exactly where to set the value. So, it is
now working with
globalMenu.alwaysActivePIDlist = 156
I am having trouble now with where to place the second line of code to
remove the always active link. I have tried it at the globalMenu.1 level,
and also within globalMenu.1 states of NO and ACT, but the Home link remains
active regardless of the page I am viewing.
Thanks again for your help!

Hi Chanda,
the way I do it that I create shortcut to the root page labeled Home, so
it would appear in the menu. Then to make it active on the homepage, I add
alwaysActivePid = XXX
to the definition of the menu. And then I add template on next level,
where I remove it
alwaysActivePid >
It may not be the best way, but it works. Maybe someone will come up
with something better.
Regards
Jan
