Description

When a WMenu has internal path enabled, it sometimes ignore the internal path at application startup and goes to another one.

Here is a way to reproduce the issue:

class Application : public Wt::WApplication
{
public:
  Application(const Wt::WEnvironment& env)
    : Wt::WApplication(env)
  {
    auto stack = root()->addNew<Wt::WStackedWidget>();
    Wt::WMenu* menu = root()->addNew<Wt::WMenu>(stack);
    menu->setInternalPathEnabled("/");

    menu->addItem("dashboard", std::make_unique<Wt::WText>("Dashboard Page"));
    menu->addItem("links", std::make_unique<Wt::WText>("Link Page"));
    auto menuItem = menu->addItem("", std::make_unique<Wt::WText>("Account Settings Page"));
    menuItem->setHidden(true);
    menuItem->setPathComponent("account-settings");
  }
};

Setting the internal path manually using setInternalPath(internalPath(), true) fixes the issue.
