Question

I have the following code that should add an active css class to the menu item if menu item url == current url:

$("#accordion a").each(function() 
{   
    if (this.href.search(window.location.hostname) != -1)
    {
        $(this).addClass("active-sidebar-link");
    }
});

but this adds the class to all the menu items. any tips?

Try this:

$("#accordion a").each(function() {   
    if (this.href == window.location.href) {
        $(this).addClass("active-sidebar-link");
    }
});
