React-router: index route always active

[ArthurRougier]

Hi guys,

Did a good amount of research on older issues but cannot find an answer to my problem. My IndexRoute always remain active even when I switch to another route. My code:

<Router>
    <Route path="/" component={App}>
            <Route path="PlaylistManager" component={PlaylistManager}>
                <IndexRoute component={CurrentPlaylist}/>
                <Route path="/n+1" component={NextPlaylist}/>
            </Route>
            <Route path="SongsBacklogManager" component={SongsBacklogManager}>
                <IndexRoute component={UntreatedTracks}/>
                <Route path="/used" component={UsedTracks}/>
                <Route path="/storage" component={StoredTracks}/>
            </Route>
    </Route>
</Router>

// And somewhere else: 

<ul>
    <li><Link activeClassName="activeBoSecondary" to="SongsBacklogManager">New</Link></li>
    <li><Link activeClassName="activeBoSecondary" to="used">Used</Link></li>
    <li><Link activeClassName="activeBoSecondary" to="storage">Storage</Link></li>
</ul>

Then, if I click on the "Used" Link for instance, the class activeBoSecondary remains appended on the index route being "SongsBacklogManager"

Hope I'm not doing anything really wrong. Thanks in advance!

All right, I will post on StackOverflow. I just felt it was a bug rather than a question, but I might be wrong.

Just solved my issue, you were right (using IndexLink instead of Link, for those who might be interested). Sorry about that!
