Navbar doesn't collapse properly in bootstrap 3 - html

The navbar works properly in full screen, but when i make the window small the toggle options doesn´t show correctly.
Was wondering if anyone knew how to fix it.
here is the css of the navbar
.navbar {
border-radius: 0;
}
.navbar-new {
background-color: white;
height: 120px;
padding-left: 20px;
}
.navbar-new .navbar-brand,
.navbar-new .navbar-brand:hover,
.navbar-new .navbar-brand:focus {
color: #FFF;
}
.navbar-new .navbar-nav > li > a {
color: #FFF;
}
.navbar-new .navbar-nav > li > a:hover,
.navbar-new .navbar-nav > li > a:focus {
background-color: #fcf8e3;
}
.navbar-new .navbar-nav > .active > a,
.navbar-new .navbar-nav > .active > a:hover,
.navbar-new .navbar-nav > .active > a:focus {
color: #FFF;
background-color: #fcf8e3;
}
.navbar-new .navbar-text {
color: black;
}
.navbar-new .navbar-toggle {
border-color: #0FA6A1;
}
.navbar-new .navbar-toggle:hover,
.navbar-new .navbar-toggle:focus {
background-color: #fcf8e3;
}
.navbar-new .navbar-toggle .icon-bar {
background-color: #FFF;
}`enter code here`
.navbar-new .navbar-toggle .icon-bar {
background-color: #FFF;
}
And Here is the html file

Hello try the below Html for navbar I just edited some classes for bootstrap and it seems working .Hope It helps you.
"Just ignore the code see the fiddle below" .
<div class="collapse navbar-collapse" id="myNav">
<ul class="nav navbar-nav">
<li>
<b>Sobre Nosotros</b>
</li>
<li class="dropdown">
<a class="dropdown-toggle" data- toggle="dropdown" href="#"
role="button" style="color:black;" aria-haspopup="true" aria-
expanded="false"><b>Productos</b> <b class="caret"></b></a>
<ul class="dropdown-menu">
<li>IMCtext
</li>
<li>IMCplastic</li>
<li>IMCcontención</li>
<li role="separator" class="divider"></li>
<li>Absorventes</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>
<a href="#" style="color:black;">
<b>Contacto</b></a>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
See the below Fiddle
Side Bar Fiddle

Well, if you add, for example, background-color: #fff to nav with the class "navbar ", you will have the desired result - a text with a color behind. But I think the problem is that you've overridden some bootstrap classes or missed adding one to your html code. Moreover your next problem (after background-color) will be fixing the position of the navbar, so it would be nicely viewable on mobile devices. Try to read this part of bootstrap documentation for more information.

Bootstrap carousel not working or sliding

I tried to include carousel into my website but no success so far. I googled it and any answer is not helping. Mainly people had problem with not including jQuery.js or bootstrap.js. Both included.
Do I have to call carousel in separate js file? Bootstrap docs says that I do not have to.
Where is the mistake? Thanks for help!
HTML/CSS:
#import "adress-row.css";
#import "offer-head.css";
#import "navbar.css";
.carouselTop {
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
top: 0;
}
.navbar {
background-color: white;
opacity: 65%;
font-weight: 600;
color: black;
}
.toptop {
position: relative;
}

Try putting your JavaScript file after/below the jQuery and Bootstrap files and ensure you have it in the order
<!--jquery, popper.js, bootstrap.js-->
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.5.1.slim.min.js"
​crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/popper.js#1.16.0/dist/umd/popper.min.js"
crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
<script src="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.5.0/js/bootstrap.min.js"
crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
<!--jquery, popper.js, bootstrap.js-->```
You are using the bootstrap 4 make sure that your code for your carousel is in bootstrap 4 because there is new bootstrap which is bootstrap 5. If your carousel is not working try to add this:
This is for bootstrap 5
var myCarousel = document.getElementById('myCarousel')
myCarousel.addEventListener('slide.bs.carousel', function () {
// do something...
})
This is for bootstrap 4
$('#myCarousel').on('slide.bs.carousel', function () {
// do something...
})
try to put this on above the tags
</body>
in order for it to work
You have to use those script. Hope your problem will be solved

I didn't look to long at your code but I did not see a z-index attribute anywhere. Did you try that? Place z-index: 1 in the css class you want to be on top.

Center text around a certain letter

I am trying to center a sentance in my Nav Bar (which uses bootstrap). The navbar so far looks like this:
Centered Navbar title
What I would like to do is have the "|" centered, with the text around it next to it, instead of just having the sentence centered. This is quite hard to explain, but I hope you understand what I mean - the "|" is centered, with text to the left and right, instead of the whole sentance being centered, where the middle letter is in the middle. I want the "|" to be in the middle.
I have tried centering the "|" and floating the text on the left to the right and the text to the right to the left, but that just made the text go completely to the right instead of stopping before the "|".
Use the snippet to view the code, but please use "Full Page" so it works properly...

Edit:
Thanks to Andrei Gheorghiu for his answer, this worked for me and looked really nice! I have marked his answer as correct and it is the one with the most upvotes at the moment...
Here's how I'd do it:
.navbar-brand {
display: flex;
}
.navbar-brand > div{
flex: 1 1 0;
padding: 0 4px;
}
.navbar-brand > div:first-child,
.navbar-brand > div:last-child{
flex-basis: 50%;
}
.navbar-brand > div:first-child {
text-align: right;
}
<div class="navbar-brand page-scroll" href="#page-top">
<div>CHLOE</div>
<div>|</div>
<div>This is a long album name</div>
</div>
P.S.: Don't forget to autoprefix your CSS before deploying.
And stop using inline style! How are you going to wrap your declarations in a #media query if they're inlined?
Here.
Note: If you don't want to count mobile menu button when centering text, just remove overflow: hidden property from div that wraps the text

Bootstrap CSS Customization Issues

Just started working with bootstrap today and I ran into a few issues. I want to edit the size of certain parts of the site but can't get them to change/am worried about the responsivity. For example in the code below I wanted to change the size of the icons so I added an additional class "size" and set the width to 300px, but the change isn't made on the site. I even tried using !important without success. Additionally, I would like to change the height of the jumbotron in the same way but have been unsuccessful. How would I go about changing these? Do I need to go into the bootstrap script? Also when designing a responsive website should I use percentages instead of pixels? Thanks, code is here:
*{
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
.navbar-default{
background-color: rgb(66, 134, 244);
}
.under {
border-bottom: 15px solid rgb(66, 134, 244);
}
.size {
width: 300px!important;
}

Change styles.css to custom.css and put it in folder called css

<link href="css/custom.css" rel="stylesheet">
You can just wrap the icon span with a h1 tag.

I have made some changes on your code:
/*
Put this content into style.css
*/
* {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
.navbar-default {
background-color: rgb(66, 134, 244);
}
.jumbotron {
/* jumbotron height */
height: 400px;
}
.under {
border-bottom: 15px solid rgb(66, 134, 244);
}
.size {
/*use font-size instead of width*/
font-size: 100px !important;
/* this is the last one:
width: 300px!important;
(missing space before !important )
*/
}

Bootstrap Bootsnipp snippet won't render correctly

I'm trying to use a Bootsnipp snippet in my page.
Namely, collapsible-tree-menu-with-accordion.
However the entire thing is being rendered in a 'flat' way. The collapse/expand mechanism is working fine, but the list items are not indented, nor are they surrounded with a box.
I imagine this is a CSS issue, but I can't figure it out.
Here is the HTML (generated from django templates), with the snippet pasted as-is:

Any ideas?
So it turns out I had two problems:
I was using Bootstrap v3.1.0, which was incompatible with this snippet.
Even after switching to v2.3.2, the files sat in the same exact (django served /static/) path, and my browser kept using the cached version (3.1.0).
About (1):
Unfortunately if I go back to 2.3.2 then my navbar is no longer rendered correctly. I would really like to migrate the snippet to Bootstrap 3.1.0, but my CSS is far too poor for me to be able to do it.
About (2):
A quick workaround was to indicate the version number somewhere in the path (i.e. boostrap/2.3.2/css/...).
A cleaner solution is django-cachebuster, which adds a meaningless get parameter for your static resources (i.e. /static/my.css?v=9393939). This parameter can be set to be the file's last modification date, so that ought to do it.
Thanks for your help guys!
