If the page object associated with the menu entry is a section, this method also returns `true` for any descendant of that section.

```go-html-template
{{ $currentPage := . }}
{{ range site.Menus.main }}
  {{ if $currentPage.IsMenuCurrent .Menu . }}
    <a class="active" aria-current="page" href="{{ .URL }}">{{ .Name }}</a>
  {{ else if $currentPage.HasMenuCurrent .Menu . }}
    <a class="ancestor" aria-current="true" href="{{ .URL }}">{{ .Name }}</a>
  {{ else }}
    <a href="{{ .URL }}">{{ .Name }}</a>
  {{ end }}
{{ end }}
```
