How to center nav-items in Bootstrap? [duplicate]
(3 answers)
Bootstrap NavBar with left, center or right aligned items
(14 answers)
Closed 2 years ago.
I have two navbars, one of which I want the text centered, but I'm having trouble understanding why I am unsuccessful in doing so. I am new to navbars in general as well as bootstrap, so I apologize If my mistake is obvious. Is it something I should be implementing in the bootstrap end, or is it something that can be addressed within the <style> tags? Thanks.
<nav class="navbar navbar-expand-md navbar-dark" style="background-color: #CBB677">
<ul class="nav navbar-nav navbar-center">
<li class="nav-item active">
<a class="nav-link" href="CoordinatorHomePage.aspx" >COORDINATORS</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item active">
<a class="nav-link" href="TeacherHomePage.aspx">TEACHERS</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item active">
<a class="nav-link" href="ParentsHome.aspx">PARENTS</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item active">
<a class="nav-link" href="StudentHome.aspx">STUDENTS</a>
</li>
</ul>
</nav>
IMO, Bootstrap is unnecessarily hard. I use raw CSS JS and HTML, but I'll try to help.
Bootstrap has this example on their site:
<ul class="nav justify-content-center">
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link active" href="#">Active</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" href="#">Link</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" href="#">Link</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link disabled" href="#" tabindex="-1" aria-disabled="true">Disabled</a>
</li>
</ul>
That should be what you're looking for.
You could also implement a navbar in raw HTML/CSS/JS:
<!--index.html-->
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<link rel="stylesheet" src="index.css">
<title>Navbar</title>
</head>
<body>
<navbar>
<button onclick="window.location.href = '#'" class="active">Something</button>
<button onclick="window.location.href = '#'">Something else</button>
<button onclick="window.location.href = '#'">A third thing</button>
</navbar>
</body>
</html>
/* index.css */
navbar {
width: 100%;
height: 10%;
background-color: #d4d4d4;
position: fixed;
top: 0px;
left: 0px;
text-align: center;
}
navbar>button {
color: #00ccff;
}
navbar>button.active {
color: #00ccff;
}

Lets say that i have a navbar with a brand text and 3 links like so:
PetesPCworld | Hardware | Software | Support |
Using this example: If i click on lets say "Hardware" then everything is okay, i can use the Brand text (PetesPCworld) to go back to the home page, but if i do this once again, lets say i click on the "Hardware" again, then i cant go back to the homepage using the Brand text.
And by default you start at the home page (duh..)

So trying to achieve responsive collapsible navigation with two rows, where first includes logo and language select and second row main links:
| |
| LOGO lang |
| link1 link2 link3 link4 |
jsfiddle snippet of progress so far
Cant get equal width for the main links, so that are distributed horizontally evenly on lg viewport and above. With the structure and classes am using links are stacked very tight.
Second row navigation:
<ul class="navbar-nav nav nav-pills nav-justified">
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" href="#">Home</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item dropdown">
<a class="nav-link dropdown-toggle" href="#" data-toggle="dropdown">
Categories
</a>
<div class="dropdown-menu">
<a class="dropdown-item">Cat 1</a>
<a class="dropdown-item">Cat 2</a>
<a class="dropdown-item">Cat 3</a>
<a class="dropdown-item">Cat 4</a>
</div>
</li>
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" href="#">Live Auction</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" href="#">Contact us</a>
</li>
</ul>
Any ideas how to override classes or other solution? Thanks!
Specify the initial size of your flex items (li) to match content by changing the flex-basis from 0 to auto -- you can enable in Bootstrap 4 by using the flex-fill class. Add it to your HTML:
<li class="nav-item flex-fill">
<a class="nav-link" href="#">Live Auction</a>
</li>
Or add the property in your CSS:
.nav-justified li.nav-item {
/* ... */
flex-basis: auto;
}
Fiddle example: https://jsfiddle.net/wcj1gzr5/1/
To distribute flex items with an effect like justify-content: space-between the width of the div and ul which contain the flex items should expand their width (giving available space to distribute flex items). To do this, set min-width: 100%; on both elements to have them fill their containing element and then use justify-content on the ul to control spacing & positioning.
Fiddle example: https://jsfiddle.net/wcj1gzr5/2/
You can do this by adding width:100% to .navbar-collapse, .nav-pills. Below is the snippet for the same

I've got a page I need to slightly change design when the size is decreased. Including but not limited to some parts of menus swapping places and extra design features on some fields

And the extra css is as follows
.smaller_font{
font-size: 80%;
}
#include media-breakpoint-down(md){
.main-navbar{
border-bottom: solid 1px;
}
}
At the moment I am trying to use #include media-breakpoint-down(md){...}
But I get no reaction from the design which does absolutely NOTHING when I decrease the size.
The idea is that the fields in the menu are going to have 1px bottom border.
I know that there's also an option of making invisible elements and then making them visible as discussed here bootstrap 4 responsive utilities visible / hidden xs sm lg not working
or setting width in pixels with "#media" tag but using "#include media-breakpoint-down()" tag seems to make more sense overall (just a gut feeling).
I need someway to get things to work on small scale, so that I can build from there :-)
"At the moment I am trying to use #include
media-breakpoint-down(md){...} But I get no reaction from the design

This isn't CSS...
#include media-breakpoint-down(md){
.main-navbar{
border-bottom: solid 1px;
}
}
It's SASS. SASS is "compiled" into CSS server-side using a SASS processor. The browser doesn't understand SASS, it only understands CSS.
Some good info found here so decided to go with imperfect, but still good solution of creating invisible object in your code.

Bootstrap align navbar items to the right
(24 answers)
Closed 1 year ago.
I'm trying to get my nav links to float to the right of my navbar, but I can't get it to work. I've tried using the ".float-right", "float-xs-right", and "justify-content-end" bootstrap 4 class, along with using "float: right !important;" in my CSS file, and it still won't work.
Here is the HTML for the navbar of my website:
<div id="navbar" class="navbar navbar-fixed-top">
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="navbar-brand">
<img src="images/logo.png" width="88px">
Scervino Lawn Service
</div>
<ul class="nav justify-content-end">
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" href="home">Home</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" href="services">Services</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" href="about">About Us</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" href="contact">Contact</a>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
</div>
And here is the CSS:
#navbar {
box-shadow: 0px 0px 11px #000;
padding: 0;
}
#navbar .navbar-brand {
font-size: 1.6em;
font-weight: bold;
color: #9CCC58;
}
I'm relatively new to the Bootstrap 4 framework, so it's possible that I might just be making a dumb mistake, but hopefully someone can help me. :(
Bootstrap 5 (update 2021)
The Bootstrap 5 Navbar still uses flexbox, but the concept of right and left, have changed to start and end for new RTL support. Therefore, the class names have changed...
float-right --> float-end
float-left --> float-start
ml-* --> ms-*
pl-* --> ps-*
mr-* --> me-*
pr-* --> pe-*
BUT, remember floats don't work with flexbox. The best approach for right alignment in the Navbar is to use ms-auto (margin-left: auto) or justify-content-end.
See this question for details
Bootstrap 4
The original answer no longer works in Bootstrap 4, and it's not good practice to use Bootstrap's .row in the navbar component. The .row should only be used for grid columns.
Now that Bootstrap 4 is flexbox, one way to align navbar components is using the auto-margin utility classes, such as ml-auto which is a shortcut for CSS margin-left:auto. This can be used to push the nav to the right...
https://www.codeply.com/go/ZAGhCX5lpq
<div id="navbar" class="navbar navbar-expand navbar-fixed-top">
<div class="container">
<div class="navbar-brand">
<img src=".." width="88px">
Scervino Lawn Service
</div>
<ul class="nav">
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" href="home">Home</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" href="services">Services</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" href="about">About Us</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" href="contact">Contact</a>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
Or the flexbox utils like justify-content-between can be used on the container inside the navbar...
<div id="navbar" class="navbar navbar-expand navbar-fixed-top">
<div class="container justify-content-between">
<div class="navbar-brand">
<img src=".." width="88px">
Scervino Lawn Service
</div>
<ul class="nav">
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" href="home">Home</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" href="services">Services</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" href="about">About Us</a>
</li>
<li class="nav-item">
<a class="nav-link" href="contact">Contact</a>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
Just notice that in this case justify-content-between works because there are only 2 navbar components (navbar-brand and nav).
You can use .justify-content-between on the parent .row to move the flex children to the far edges of the row.
#navbar {
box-shadow: 0px 0px 11px #000;
padding: 0;
}
#navbar .navbar-brand {
font-size: 1.6em;
font-weight: bold;

And a extra </div>
I'm creating a webpage, I want to be able to do a header for each page
I want it to consist of
(An Image) Home news about us web call email
I have this code so far:
<!DOCTYPE html>

<nav class="navbar navbar-light bg-faded">
<img src="jazz.jpg" alt="HTML5 Icon" width="250" height="100">

So this code will give you the header you are looking for. You can add an image in the header if you want still, but you will have to play around with the styling to make it look good. Let me know if you have any questions or need anything clarified. Hope this helps!
You can use display for this. display:inline or a newer version display:flex
Just add some css styling to your HTML to achieve your goal.
Play around with this JSfiddle:
https://jsfiddle.net/ry3hgrtq/
I added these classes to your html.
.navbar img {
display:inline;
float: left;
}
.navbar ul {
list-style-type: none;
}
.navbar li {
display: inline;
padding: 2px;
margin: 2px;
}
