I have a horizontal navigation bar with a four buttons. The third button is a dropdown, however the dropdown is appearing too the far left of the nav-bar, and it should be directly beneath the 'Services' button.
HTML:
<div class="nav dropdown">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary col-md-3"> Home </button>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary col-md-3"> About Us </button>
<button class="btn btn-primary dropdown-toggle col-md-3" type="button" data-toggle="dropdown">Services <span class="caret"></span></button>
<ul class="dropdown-menu">
<li>Residential</li>
<li>Commercial</li>
</ul>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary col-md-3">Contact Us</button>
</div>
CSS:
.nav {
background-color: #171818;
border-top: 1px solid;
border-bottom: 1px solid;
border-color: #E3E3E3;
height: 60px;
padding-top: 10px;
text-align: center;
}
.nav a:link{
color: #000000;
}
.nav a:visited {
color: #000000;
}
Here is the code to mess around with:

So far I have tried to separate the third button into a another individual <div> but it left a gap between the that button and the others, and I have tried to make other alterations to the Bootstrap dropdown classes.
I have been trying to have it drop directly beneath the 'Services' button but have had no avail. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I am fairly new to using CSS and Bootstrap but if their is anything that I can do to help make the question more clear, please let me know!
I answered this already. Did you delete the previous question?
<div class="nav dropdown">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary col-md-3"> Home </button>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary col-md-3"> About Us </button>
<div class="btn-group col-md-3" role="group" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown" aria-haspopup="true" aria-expanded="false"
style="width: 100%">
Dropdown <span class="caret"></span>
</button>
<ul class="dropdown-menu">
<li>Dropdown link</li>
<li>Dropdown link</li>
</ul>
</div>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary col-md-3"> Contact Us </button>
</div>
all you had to do was remove the padding and margin from the btn-group class.
Try below code:
Add below style code to "dropdown-menu" class
position: relative !important;
margin: 47px -264px 0 !important;
"dropdown-menu" class is not mentioned in editor from your link. It is added in a bootstrap file that is not displayed in editor. So apply above code with "!important" inline to "dropdown-menu" class or add it to your custom css file.

I am quite new to Bootstrap 4. I am struggling to vertically align some elements on a list-group. It consists on some text on the left side and a dropdown on the right.
<div class="dashboard-blocks">
<ul class="list-group ">
<li class="dashboard-block list-group-item">
<span class="align-middle">Write Article/s</span>
<span class="btn-group float-right">
<button
type="button"
class="btn btn-secondary dropdown-toggle"
data-toggle="dropdown"
aria-haspopup="true"
aria-expanded="false"
>
ACTION
</button>
<span class="dropdown-menu dropdown-menu-right">
<button class="dropdown-item" type="button">Action</button>
<button class="dropdown-item" type="button">
Another action
</button>
<button class="dropdown-item" type="button">
Something else here
</button>
</span>
</span>
</li>
On the CSS side I am just applying some styling to the font/colors/borders plus:
.dashboard-block {
...
line-height: normal;
letter-spacing: normal;
...
padding: 25px;
margin-top: 10px;
margin-bottom: 10px;
}
As you can see here "Write Article" is not vertically aligned:
Use flex utility. Due to .float-right it is not allowing to vertically center the span element.
<div class="dashboard-blocks">
<ul class="list-group ">
<li class="dashboard-block list-group-item d-flex justify-content-between align-items-center">
<span class="align-middle">Write Article/s</span>
<span class="btn-group">
<button
type="button"
class="btn btn-secondary dropdown-toggle"
data-toggle="dropdown"
aria-haspopup="true"
aria-expanded="false"
>
ACTION
</button>
</span>
</li>
</ul>
</div>
Things to do:
Add classes to <li> : .d-flex, .justify-content-between,
.align-items-center
Remove .align-middle and .float-right classes from span(not required).
Sample JS Fiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/srijan1709/apbmgde2/13/
Bootstrap 4 Flex Utility: https://getbootstrap.com/docs/4.0/utilities/flex/
You juste need to add this CSS style to your SPAN
vertical-align:middle;
good luck!
How to make links and buttons be aligned in list using bootstrap?
I need to make them aligned left with reasonable padding.
Can I do it without CSS and my own classes?
<div class="btn-group">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-default btn-icon dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown">
menu
<span class="caret"></span>
</button>
<ul class="dropdown-menu dropdown-menu-right">
<li>
<a class="btn btn-link text-left" href="">
Edit
</a>
</li>
<li class="divider"></li>
<li>
<form action="" method="POST" >
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-link">
Delete
</button>
</form>
</li>
</ul>
</div>

You can overwrite the below CSS class of bootstrap and try this
.dropdown-menu>li>a {
text-align: left!important;
padding: 10px!important;
}
I am building an app with Bootstrap 3.3 and Bootstrap Material Design framework. I am trying to make a floating action button that opens when you click it.
In an attempt to do this, I've created this Bootply, which has the following code:
<div class="btn-group dropup floating-action-button">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-info btn-fab btn-raised dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown" aria-haspopup="true" aria-expanded="false"><i class="material-icons">save</i></button>
<ul class="dropdown-menu dropdown-menu-right" style="min-width:0; background-color:transparent;">
<li><i class="material-icons">clear</i></li>
</ul>
</div>
The buttons works, but it doesn't look right. There are two issues that are driving me nuts. First, the popup menu isn't transparent. There is like a border and shadow that I can't seem to get rid of.
Second, I can't use the small version of the buttons as shown in the Floating action buttons section of the Bootstrap Material Design framework page. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.
So the .dropdown-menu in bootstrap CSS has by default box-shadow and border, which you have to reset it in order to make it transparent.
Plus in your Bootply it's not applying the Material Design Icons, because you didn't link the fonts.
Regarding small icons, add .btn-group-sm to .btn-group
Here is a working SNIPPET with examples for every sizes.
.floating-action-button {
position: relative;
top: 100px;
margin-left: 50px;
}
ul.dropdown-menu {
box-shadow: none;
border: 0;
min-width:0;
background:transparent
}

I wouldn't say that it is ideal, but the following seems to solve part of your problem.
.dropdown-menu {
-webkit-box-shadow: none;
box-shadow: none;
border: none;
}
Unfortunately, I was not able to figure out what the material-icons class didn't work. Hopefully this answer will help you get closer to a solution.
I nested a drop down menu inside a group of buttons but I'm having a little trouble styling the drop down menu to look like the main buttons. It seems like there should be bootstrap classes to do this without using css?
I want the drop down items to show a dark background when hovered over, just like when the main buttons get hovered over. See pictures below
There looks to be some styling when the main buttons get clicked as well, no styling takes place when the drop down menu items get clicked.
I would like similar text in the drop down as the main buttons
I'm just trying to make things look consistent.
Here is my code with a partially working Fiddle and some pics that show the button group with drop down I'm trying to style.
<div class="btn-group btn-group-lg" role="group" aria-label="...">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-default">House</button>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-default">Apartment</button>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-default">Studio</button>
<div class="btn-group btn-group-lg" role="group">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-default dropdown-toggle"
data-toggle="dropdown" aria-expanded="false">
Other <span class="caret"></span>
</button>
<ul class="dropdown-menu" role="menu">
<li><a>Park</a></li>
<li><a>Beach</a></li>
<li><a>Field</a></li>
<li><a>BackYard</a></li>
<li><a>FrontYard</a></li>
<li><a>Other</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
no highlighting when hovering over drop down menu items.
The dropdown menu options are notoriously light. If you want to adjust the shade of the hover effect, you can add your own CSS to match whatever theme you're using.
Here's how you'd do it for the default theme:
.btn-group .dropdown-menu li:hover a {
color: #333;
background-color: #E6E6E6;
border-color: #ADADAD;
}
Demo in Stack Snippet
.btn-group .dropdown-menu li:hover a {
color: #333;
background-color: #E6E6E6;
border-color: #ADADAD;
}

<button type="button" class="btn btn-default">Apartment</button>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-default">Studio</button>
<div class="btn-group btn-group-lg" role="group">

<li><a>Park</a></li>
<li><a>Beach</a></li>
<li><a>Field</a></li>
<li><a>BackYard</a></li>
<li><a>FrontYard</a></li>
<li><a>Other</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
Just add these to css file to get background color when hovering..
a:link {
text-decoration:none;
color:#2E3D4C;
font-weight: bold;
}
li a:hover {
color:#2E3D4C;
background-color:#C2E0FF;
}
ul.menu li ul {
visibility:hidden;
}
ul.menu li:hover ul {
visibility:visible;
}
ul.menu ul li:hover {
background-color:#6B8FB2;
}
li a:link {
display: block;
padding: 0px;
margin:1px;
}
The button with text "Project Howto" is supposed to be inlined with the button with text "Sign In or Register"
I remove the padding padding:0 already but when i inspect it.. padding still appears
<div class="btn-group input-group-btn" style="padding:0;">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-default btn-lg dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown" style="margin:0px;">
Project HowTo:
<span class="caret"></span>
</button>
<ul class="dropdown-menu">
<li>Dropdown link</li>
<li>Dropdown link</li>
</ul>
</div>

The padding musn't be removed on <div> btn-group input-group-btn but on child <button> btn btn-default btn-lg dropdown-toggle. Then, your padding is removed.
But it still won't be the same height because :
The font size is different
You have two elements in your second button
The only way to force these buttons to share the same height is to give them a specific one :
btn-group.input-group-btn button {
height: 50px;
}
Demo : http://codepen.io/anon/pen/ByIwl
Since the Project HowTo: button has the padding, the button group is giving padding.
Set the following css to btn btn-default dropdown-toggle element:
.input-group-btn:last-child>.btn {
padding: 1.5px 4px;
line-height: 1.45;
}
You can give inline style or add a custom class for that element with the given style to override.
I tried this, and it worked. Added inline style for padding 0.
<button type="button" class="btn btn-default btn-lg dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown" style="margin:0px;padding:0;">
Project HowTo:
<span class="caret"></span>
</button>
