hey @rebazjabar so you're trying to perform the navigation away from the navigation bar (i.e. using GoRouter in another context). If you want to navigate to the Rooms Page while at the same time update the bottom bar icon so it changes, you must mark the item as selected in the bottom bar programmatically. I just updated the code and added a new method in the BottomBarViewModel:

markBottomBarItemSelectedByRoute(String route)

So you should do it like this now:

First, navigate to your page:

GoRouter.of(Utils.tabNav.currentContext!).go('/rooms') => you should say also instead go(RoomsPage.route).

Then, update the bottom bar item with the same route:

ref.read(bottomBarVMProvider.notifier).markBottomBarItemSelectedByRoute(RoomsPage.route);

And you should be good to go.
