bootstrap 5 bs-gutter-x throws off div's - html

My div alignment is being thrown off by the default .row class. It has a margin_left and right call that adds gutters that make borders go off my div. I've turned off gutters in this element, but it causes issues elsewhere on the site.
Here is an example of code that causes an issue.
<div class="row border-top border-bottom">
<p id="body">
</p>
</div>
Here is a screen shot of the issue along with an inspect where I show the exact element I can turn off that fixes the issue.

According to the Docs using g-0 will turn off gutters for that .row.
<div class="row g-0 border-top border-bottom">
<p id="body">
</p>
</div>
Give it a try.

Only columns (col-*) should be the immediate child of row.

Finding cause of horizontal scroll on bootstrap site

This issue has been fixed thanks to Manoj Kumar
I can't for the life of me fix the root cause of whitespace on the right side of a site I'm currently building, causing the dreaded 'accidental horizontal scrollbar.' It's especially noticeable on mobile.

I've tried every trick I can think of. Using overflow-x: hidden on the body somewhat fixes the issue but I'm not at all about band-aid fixes - I'm attempting to find the full solution.
You have two problems, each with your markup and style sheet.
First you need to remove this:
.info-box {
padding: 20px 0 40px;
}
The above code is overriding the default padding of the col-* classes which was by default added to compensate for the negative margins provided by row classes.
and then in the below code:
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-12 text-center">
<div class="row">
<div class="container-fluid text-center partners"></div>
</div>
</div>
You have wrapped a container-fluid element within a row element, while you need to do the reverse.
Bootstrap grid documentation
Rows must be placed within a .container (fixed-width) or
.container-fluid (full-width) for proper alignment and padding.

How to add margin between grid items?

For some reason I cannot add margin between grid items
Page with margin issue
This page margin shows perfectly:
Proper page
I suspect it has to do with CSS, I tried everything but nothing seemed to work. Can someone please help?
What you need to do is move your .grid class styling to a new parent element inside your grid column, the column itself takes up a full 25% of the width of the page and has internal padding to create the illusion of margin.
<div class="grid col-sm-3 col-xs-6">
to
<div class="col-sm-3 col-xs-6">
<div class="grid">
You can see a quick example of this by moving your .grid class to the .description child element, the styling goes a bit wacky but you will be able to see the margins between your columns.

Divide a column into 2 parts in Bootstrap 3

I'm using a div with class "col-lg-9", inside that div there are two columns with a class of "col-lg-6" for each one. it works good but the issue is that there is no margin between the columns.
To see things visually, I've added a grey background to the main column. Notice how is no margin between the blue and the pink columns.
Please see the issue in this pic:

The code:
<div class="main col-lg-9">
<div class="col-lg-6">
</div>
<div class="col-lg-6">
</div>
</div>
Thanks,
You have different options, however, I'd recommend you to start with a basic thing for ALL options, which is this:
<div class="main col-lg-9 myHalfCol">
<div class="col-lg-6">
</div>
<div class="col-lg-6">
</div>
</div>
Now you can target .myHalfCol without worrying about affecting any other .col-lg-6 class
As for approaches, you can use the padding model, leaving everything as is just adding some padding at the sides, like this:
.myHalfCol .col-lg-6{padding:0 10px;}
The margin model:
Here you use real margins, so you need to take care of width.
.myHalfCol .col-lg-6{width:48%; margin:0 1% /* or auto */;}

Wrapping a row in a background color

I've not thought about this massively and I'm probably missing something very obvious but how does one properly apply background colours to '.row'
The code I've been using:
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-4 white-flood">
</div>
</div>
However this only applies to columns. I've tried wrapping them in a div, applying the style to the .row class among other things
Thanks :)
EDIT:
This should help people find out what my issue is (applying to .row should do the trick but something in my code is stopping it from working). The 4 thumb links should have awhite background.

Two options:
1) Set the background color to the row:
<div class="row white-flood">
<div class="col-lg-4"></div>
</div>
2) You need to use table layout
<div class="row" style="display: table">
<div class="col-lg-4 white-flood" style="float: none; display: table-cell"></div>
</div>
But this will slightly break the bootstrap design, as the table cant have a negative margin.
Added position: relative to my flood class and it worked...
I believe it is something to do with my responsive background intefering.

Why does my button appear outside the containing div?

I have a fiddle here which shows my issue. You may need to make the 'result' quadrant wider to show the issue.
I have a couple of columns in my bootstrap layout but I can't seem to get my button to layout inside the parent div, it always seems to overlap it:
At first I thought it was due to the padding of the columns in bootstrap but I have removed that and the problem persists. I'm obviously missing something fundamental about how this is supposed to work, so any pointers to some help with css might not go amiss either.
apparently I have to link to some code to include a link to a fiddle so here is some:
My html is:
<div class="col-md-3 col-lg-3 nopadding">
<div class="definition-pallette">
<div class="row nopadding">
<div class="col nopadding"><button data-bind="click: showStepModal">+ Step</button></div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
and the additional css on top of the bootstrap default is:
.nopadding {
padding-left: 0 !important;
padding-right: 0 !important;
}
Seems to be a few things going on here. The main issue is you are using a lot of divs with a class of 'col' inside your 'row' divs. To get them to start behaving you need to define what size the col is. This fixes most of your problems. So for example, where you have this
<div class="row">
<div class="col">Some content</div>
</div>
Change that to something like
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-12">Some content</div>
</div>
And it starts behaving.
I also got rid of your .nopadding class as you don't need that.
Here is an updated fiddle - http://jsfiddle.net/T4XY4/1/ - it fixes most of the things in the right panel, but I'll leave the rest to you. You may want to choose which classes you actually want inside your 'row' divs, I just chucked in xs-12 for simplicity.
Edit
The Bootstrap docs confirms that if you are nesting columns you need proper col-* classes - http://getbootstrap.com/css/#grid-nesting
Its caused by bootstraps margins in the row class adding margin:0; to your no padding class will fix this but might cause layout issues in other places or on mobile devices.
.row {
margin-right: -15px;
margin-left: -15px;
}
