Bootstrap get div to align in the center

I would like to center horizontally the login form, it is centered on mobile devices, but I can't figure out how to achieve the same on a monitor screen. I am using Bootstrap 3.
<div class="container-fluid main-container">
<h2>Login</h2>
<form action="/action_page.php">
<div class="form-group row">
<div class="col-sm-3">
<label for="email">Username:</label>
<input type="email" class="form-control" id="email" placeholder="Enter your email" name="email">
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group row">
<div class="col-sm-3">
<label for="pwd">Password:</label>
<input type="password" class="form-control" id="pwd" placeholder="Enter password" name="pwd">
</div>
</div>
<div class="checkbox">
<label><input type="checkbox" name="remember"> Remember me</label>
</div>
<div class="form-group row">
<div class="col-sm-3">
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-default btn-block">Submit</button>
</div>
</div>
</form>
</div>

Set the container to display flex and use justify-content and align-items like this
.container-fluid {
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
align-items: center;
}
this is a css solution I don't think you can achieve this with bootstrap

I've question how to make form align to center with bootstrap.
Here's my code:
<body>
<div class="p-3 mb-2 bg-light text-dark container text-center">
<h2>Rezervacija Stanovanje Aljaz</h2>
<br>
<br>
<label><b>Ime: </b></label>
<input type="text" class="form-control col-sm-6" disabled value="" >
<label><b>Priimek: </b></label>
<input type="text" class="form-control col-sm-6" disabled value="" ><label><b>Telefon: </b></label>
<input type="text" class="form-control col-sm-6" disabled value="">
</div>
</body>
If you are making HTML email template as you said in one of your comment.. you should use table layout or you will have problems with that template in many clients.
I don't suggest using flex in emails templates too.. but to answer your question add these classes to your first div d-flex flex-column align-items-center.
Add CSS link of bootstrap4-5 after your title tag else write custom CSS code. text-algin: center;
You need to use the various Bootstrap 4 centering methods...
Use text-center for inline elements.
Use justify-content-center for flexbox elements (ie; form-inline)
https://codeply.com/go/Am5LvvjTxC
Also, to offset the column, the col-sm-* must be contained within a .row, and the .row must be in a container...
<section id="cover">
<div id="cover-caption">
<div id="container" class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-sm-10 offset-sm-1 text-center">
<h1 class="display-3">Welcome to Bootstrap 4</h1>
<div class="info-form">
<form action="" class="form-inline justify-content-center">

<label class="sr-only">Name</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Jane Doe">

<div class="form-group">

Bootstrap 4 - can't horizontally align a vertical form

I have the following form code:
<div id="site" class="container-fluid">
<div class="row">
<div class="my-4 offset-3 col-6 justify-content-center align-items-center">
<form action="/some/path" method="post">
<div class="form-group row">
<label for="username" class="col-2 col-form-label">Username</label>
<div class="col-4">
<input type="text" class="form-control" id="username" name="_username" required="required" autocomplete="username" />
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group row">
<label for="password" class="col-2 col-form-label">Password</label>
<div class="col-4">
<input type="password" class="form-control" id="password" name="_password" required="required" autocomplete="current-password" />
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group row">
<div class="col-2"></div>
<div class="col-4">
<div class="form-check">
<input class="form-check-input" type="checkbox" id="remember_me" name="_remember_me" value="on" />
<label for="remember_me" class="form-check-label">Remember me</label>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group row">
<div class="col-6">
<button class="btn btn-burnt-orange" type="submit" id="_submit" name="_submit">Log in</button>
</div>
</div>
</form>
</div>
</div>
</div>
I want the form to be centered on the page, but instead, it's still further to the left than center as shown by this screenshot:
I thought my math was correct: Bootstrap uses a 12-column grid, so by using a 3-column offset, and a 6-column content area, I'd have essentially two 3-column gutters on each side. And by specifying the form rows to add up to 6-columns (2-column labels and 4-column inputs), the form would fill the 6-column content area, thereby automatically centering itself. But I'm obviously wrong.
So, what can I do to actually center this thing? And to make it 6 columns wide (because, judging by the screenshot, it isn't)?
The form is horizontally centered, but it's only half the width of it's parent. The issue is...
"And by specifying the form rows to add up to 6-columns (2-column
labels and 4-column inputs), the form would fill the 6-column content
area, thereby automatically centering itself"
Since 6 is half of 12, the form col-6 (2+4) is only going to fill half the parent col-6. If you want a narrower form in the middle use col-4 (1/3 width), and then something that adds to 12 for the labels and form input (eg. 3+9). OFC you could also use 4/8, 6/6, etc...

You can accomplish this by using col-6 and justify-content-center. All you have to do is setup the elements, rows and columns with bootstrap.
Here is an example of centering the form group:
<link href="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.1.3/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet"/>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div id="site" class="container-fluid">
<div class="row justify-content-center">
<div class="col-6" style="background: #eee;">
<!-- formgroup start -->
<form>
<div action="/some/path" class="form-group">
<label for="username">Username</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control" id="username" placeholder="Enter username" name="_username" required="required" autocomplete="username" />
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label for="password">Password</label>
<input type="password" class="form-control" id="password" placeholder="Password" name="_password" required="required" autocomplete="current-password" />
</div>
<div class="form-group form-check">
<input type="checkbox" class="form-check-input" id="remember_me" name="_remember_me" value="on" />
<label class="form-check-label" for="remember_me">Remember me</label>
</div>
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary" id="_submit" name="_submit">Submit</button>
</form>
<!-- formgroup end -->

I am trying to align the form to the center and keep it responsive. I have tried several ways but no success. I am trying to center all the text and the form. I am using Bootstrap v4. I am not sure if that helps.

All above answers perfectly gives the solution to center the form using Bootstrap 4. However, if someone wants to use out of the box Bootstrap 4 css classes without help of any additional styles and also not wanting to use flex, we can do like this.
A sample form
HTML
<div class="container-fluid h-100 bg-light text-dark">
<div class="row justify-content-center align-items-center">
<h1>Form</h1>
</div>
<hr/>
<div class="row justify-content-center align-items-center h-100">
<div class="col col-sm-6 col-md-6 col-lg-4 col-xl-3">
<form action="">
<div class="form-group">
<select class="form-control">
<option>Option 1</option>
<option>Option 2</option>
</select>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<input type="text" class="form-control" />
</div>
<div class="form-group text-center">
<div class="form-check-inline">
<label class="form-check-label">
<input type="radio" class="form-check-input" name="optradio">Option 1
</label>
</div>
<div class="form-check-inline">
<label class="form-check-label">
<input type="radio" class="form-check-input" name="optradio">Option 2
</label>
</div>
<div class="form-check-inline">
<label class="form-check-label">
<input type="radio" class="form-check-input" name="optradio" disabled>Option 3
</label>
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col"><button class="col-6 btn btn-secondary btn-sm float-left">Reset</button></div>
<div class="col"><button class="col-6 btn btn-primary btn-sm float-right">Submit</button></div>

I hope this helps someone. Thank you.

I need two <select> items next to each other in my form to take up 100% of their parent DIV using Bootstrap

I'm trying to create a search form using Bootstrap and it's all fine but I need two of the multi-option to sit next to each other and collectively take up 100% width of their containing DIV.
The orange is obviously only there to highlight what I'm trying to do.
You want to put those inputs into a row, then each input div take up half of the container div using col-*-6 (12 is the maximum set by the grid layout). That is what I did in the follow example:
Code
<div class="container">
<div class="form-group">
<label label-default="" for="exampleInputEmail1">Email address</label>
<input type="email" class="form-control" id="exampleInputEmail1"
placeholder="Enter email">
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="form-group col-lg-6">
<label label-default="" for="exampleInputPassword1">Password</label>
<input type="password" class="form-control" id="exampleInputPassword1"
placeholder="Password">
</div>
<div class="form-group col-lg-6">
<label label-default="" for="username">username</label>
<input type="username" class="form-control" id="username"
placeholder="username">
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label label-default="" for="exampleInputFile">File input</label>
<input type="file" id="exampleInputFile">
<p class="help-block">Example block-level help text here.</p>
</div>
<div class="checkbox">
<label>
<input type="checkbox">Check me out</label>
</div>
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-default">Submit</button>
I will add my bootply when it actually saves... but you can copy and paste it into a bootply for now to see demo.

using this as a reference, you will want to put your controls into a row with the class markup for grid spans
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-6">
your control here with style for 100% width
