Basically two problems, though minor:

  • pagePrime does not actually detect the current page.
  • The style sheet has no class named "active"
$ grep -in "pagePrime\|active" themes/pelican/templates/*
themes/pelican/templates/base.html:52:            <li{% if page == pagePrime %} class="active"{% endif %}><a href="{{ link }}">{{ title }}</a></li>
themes/pelican/templates/base.html:64:            <li{% if page == pagePrime %} class="active"{% endif %}><a href="{{ SITEURL }}/{{ page.url }}">{{ page.title }}</a></li>
themes/pelican/templates/base.html:70:            <li{% if cat == category %} class="active"{% endif %}><a href="{{ SITEURL }}/{{ cat.url }}">{{ cat }}</a></li>

What are the "expected behavior" and "actual/current behavior"?

The original template, which was a fork itself, had a way alter the menu to highlight or underline the text/link for the current page.

There are only two pages, "TODO" and "Why ?", correct?

This might not make any sense anymore for this template. The original template before the fork didn't really have it either. I'll think about it for a few more days, but I think just removing the references makes more sense.
