Bootstrap pull-right and mobile devices [duplicate] - html

This question already has answers here:
Bootstrap 3: pull-right for col-lg only
(13 answers)
Closed 7 years ago.
I have <h1> and inside it <div class="pull-right"> which contains buttons at the same horizontal line with title of the site.
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-12">
<h1>
Title
<div class="pull-right">
...
...
...
</div>
</h1>
</div>
</div>
Would it be possible to get the buttons below the title when using mobile devices? For example:

Don't do that because those buttons are not part of your title and this would have some SEO drawbacks (Search engines algorithms use contents of <h1> element as your first level heading on your page ). instead do this:
#media screen and (min-width: 1100px){
.pull-right{
display:inline-block;
}
}
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-12">
<h1>Title</h1><!--
--><div class="pull-right">
...
...
...
</div>
</div>
</div>
This way you have your desired output on mobile devices (Screen width lower than 1100px ) and inline state on devices width screen width higher than that

Firstly, you can't nest a div inside an h1. Secondly, why not use the grid system properly?
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.5/css/bootstrap.min.css">
<script src="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.5/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-12 col-md-6">
<h1>Title</h1>
</div>
<div class="col-xs-12 col-md-6">
<div class="pull-right">
...
...
...
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>

You could wrap your heading inside a col-sm-12 col-md-5 .
THis would ensure that on small devices, the heading row takes the entire width, thush shifting the buttons below the title div.
For more information, see this : Responsive Grids: Bootstrap

Standart bootstrap disable pull-classes on mobile-view. You need manually add to your css next code:
#media(max-width:769px) {
.pull-right {
float:right!important;
}
.pull-left {
float:left!important;
}
}

How to flip columns from bootstrap on mobile [duplicate]

I'm making a responsive layout with a top fixed navbar. Underneath I have two columns, one for a sidebar (3), and one for content (9). Which on desktop looks like this
navbar
[3][9]
When I resize to mobile the navbar is compressed and hidden, then the sidebar is stacked on top of the content, like this:
navbar
[3]
[9]
I would like the main content at the top, so I need to change the order on mobile to this:
navbar
[9]
[3]
I found this article which covers the same points, but the accepted answer has been edited to say that the solution no applies to the current version of Bootstrap.
How can I reorder these columns on mobile? Or alternatively, how can I get the sidbar list-group into my expanding navbar?
Here is my code:

<div class="panel panel-default">
<div class="panel-body">
<div class="page-header">
Main Content
</div>
</div>
</div><!--end main content area-->
You cannot change the order of columns in smaller screens but you can do that in large screens.
So change the order of your columns.
<!--Main Content-->
<div class="col-lg-9 col-lg-push-3">
</div>
<!--Sidebar-->
<div class="col-lg-3 col-lg-pull-9">
</div>
By default this displays the main content first.
So in mobile main content is displayed first.
By using col-lg-push and col-lg-pull we can reorder the columns in large screens and display sidebar on the left and main content on the right.

Updated 2018
For the original question based on Bootstrap 3, the solution was to use push-pull.
In Bootstrap 4 it's now possible to change the order, even when the columns are full-width stacked vertically, thanks to Bootstrap 4 flexbox. OFC, the push pull method will still work, but now there are other ways to change column order in Bootstrap 4, making it possible to re-order full-width columns.
Method 1 - Use flex-column-reverse for xs screens:
<div class="row flex-column-reverse flex-md-row">
<div class="col-md-3">
sidebar
</div>
<div class="col-md-9">
main
</div>
</div>
Method 2 - Use order-first for xs screens:
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-3">
sidebar
</div>
<div class="col-md-9 order-first order-md-last">
main
</div>

#emre stated, "You cannot change the order of columns in smaller screens but you can do that in large screens". However, this should be clarified to state: "You cannot change the order of full-width "stacked" columns.." in Bootstrap 3.
Bootstrap 3 Answer
The answers here work for just 2 cells, but as soon as those columns have more in them it can lead to a bit more complexity. I think I've found a generalized solution for any number of cells in multiple columns.
Goals
Get a vertical sequence of tags on mobile to arrange themselves in whatever order the design calls for on tablet/desktop. In this concrete example, one tag must enter flow earlier than it normally would, and another later than it normally would.
Mobile
[1 headline]
[2 image]
[3 qty]
[4 caption]
[5 desc]
Tablet+
[2 image ][1 headline]
[ ][3 qty ]
[ ][5 desc ]
[4 caption][ ]
[ ][ ]
So headline needs to shuffle right on tablet+, and technically, so does desc - it sits above the caption tag that precedes it on mobile. You'll see in a moment 4 caption is in trouble too.
Let's assume every cell could vary in height, and needs to be flush top-to-bottom with its next cell (ruling out weak tricks like a table).
As with all Bootstrap Grid problems step 1 is to realize the HTML has to be in mobile-order, 1 2 3 4 5, on the page. Then, determine how to get tablet/desktop to reorder itself in this way - ideally without Javascript.
The solution to get 1 headline and 3 qty to sit to the right not the left is to simply set them both pull-right. This applies CSS float: right, meaning they find the first open space they'll fit to the right. You can think of the browser's CSS processor working in the following order: 1 fits in to the right top corner. 2 is next and is regular (float: left), so it goes to top-left corner. Then 3, which is float: right so it leaps over underneath 1.
But this solution wasn't enough for 4 caption; because the right 2 cells are so short 2 image on the left tends to be longer than the both of them combined. Bootstrap Grid is a glorified float hack, meaning 4 caption is float: left. With 2 image occupying so much room on the left, 4 caption attempts to fit in the next available space - often the right column, not the left where we wanted it.
The solution here (and more generally for any issue like this) was to add a hack tag, hidden on mobile, that exists on tablet+ to push caption out, that then gets covered up by a negative margin - like this:
[2 image ][1 headline]
[ ][3 qty ]
[ ][4 hack ]
[5 caption][6 desc ^^^]
[ ][ ]
http://jsfiddle.net/b9chris/52VtD/16633/
HTML:
<div id=headline class="col-xs-12 col-sm-6 pull-right">Product Headline</div>
<div id=image class="col-xs-12 col-sm-6">Product Image</div>
<div id=qty class="col-xs-12 col-sm-6 pull-right">Qty, Add to cart</div>
<div id=hack class="hidden-xs col-sm-6">Hack</div>
<div id=caption class="col-xs-12 col-sm-6">Product image caption</div>
<div id=desc class="col-xs-12 col-sm-6 pull-right">Product description</div>
CSS:
#hack { height: 50px; }
#media (min-width: #screen-sm) {
#desc { margin-top: -50px; }
}
So, the generalized solution here is to add hack tags that can disappear on mobile. On tablet+ the hack tags allow displayed tags to appear earlier or later in the flow, then get pulled up or down to cover up those hack tags.
Note: I've used fixed heights for the sake of the simple example in the linked jsfiddle, but the actual site content I was working on varies in height in all 5 tags. It renders properly with relatively large variance in tag heights, especially image and desc.
Note 2: Depending on your layout, you may have a consistent enough column order on tablet+ (or larger resolutions), that you can avoid use of hack tags, using margin-bottom instead, like so:
Note 3: This uses Bootstrap 3. Bootstrap 4 uses a different grid set, and won't work with these examples.
http://jsfiddle.net/b9chris/52VtD/16632/
October 2017
I would like to add another Bootstrap 4 solution. One that worked for me.
The CSS "Order" property, combined with a media query, can be used to re-order columns when they get stacked in smaller screens.
Something like this:
#media only screen and (max-width: 768px) {
#first {
order: 2;
}
#second {
order: 4;
}
#third {
order: 1;
}
#fourth {
order: 3;
}
}
CodePen Link: https://codepen.io/preston206/pen/EwrXqm
Adjust the screen size and you'll see the columns get stacked in a different order.
I'll tie this in with the original poster's question. With CSS, the navbar, sidebar, and content can be targeted and then order properties applied within a media query.
In Bootstrap 4, if you want to do something like this:
Mobile | Desktop
-----------------------------
A | A
C | B C
B | D
D |
You need to reverse the order of B then C then apply order-{breakpoint}-first to B. And apply two different settings, one that will make them share the same cols and other that will make them take the full width of the 12 cols:
Smaller screens: 12 cols to B and 12 cols to C
Larger screens: 12 cols between the sum of them (B + C = 12)
Like this
<div class='row no-gutters'>
<div class='col-12'>
A
</div>
<div class='col-12'>
<div class='row no-gutters'>
<div class='col-12 col-md-6'>
C
</div>
<div class='col-12 col-md-6 order-md-first'>
B
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class='col-12'>
D
</div>
</div>

Starting with the mobile version first, you can achieve what you want, most of the time.

This is quite easy with jQuery using insertAfter() or insertBefore():
<div class="left">content</div>
<div class="right">sidebar</div>
<script>
$('.right').insertBefore('left');
</script>
If you want to to set o condition for mobile devices you can make it like this:
<script>
var $iW = $(window).innerWidth();
if ($iW < 992){
$('.right').insertBefore('.left');
}else{
$('.right').insertAfter('.left');
}
</script>

Its very simple, write your html the way you would want it to be viewed in mobile. Then using the bootstrap order class you can arrange how you want it to viewed on desktop.

3 Elements, the both right should move to top and buttom in twitter-bootstrap

I want to build a test website. It contains 3 divs.
One div should be on the left side and the other divs on the right side. If i resize the browser, the highest of the right divs should move to the top and the lowest should move to the bottom.
This is how it should look in large browsers:
<div class="col-lg-6 highlight" style="height:50%;">1</div>
<div class="col-lg-6 highlight" style="height:25%;">2</div>
<div class="col-lg-6 highlight" style="height:25%;">3</div>
But if I resize the browser, the order is 1 - 2 - 3. I want 2 - 1 - 3.
This is how it should look like. That code works in mobile:
<div class="col-lg-6 highlight col-lg-push-6" style="height:25%;">2</div>
<div class="col-lg-6 highlight col-lg-pull-6" style="height:50%;">1</div>
<div class="col-lg-6 highlight col-lg-push-6" style="height:25%;">3</div>
But if I resize the browser window to large, it occurs a gap.
It works if I float the 1 to the left and the others to right and remove the css properties in large browsers. But is it possible with pure bootstrap?
You can use pull-right and pull-left classes for float left or right,like this.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.7/css/bootstrap.min.css">
<style>
#media(max-width: 991px) {
.pull-right,
.pull-left {
float: none!important;
}
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="row" style="height:500px;">
<div class="col-md-6 pull-right" style="height:25%;background:#080;color:#fff;text-align:center;">2</div>
<div class="col-md-6 pull-left" style="height:50%;background:#080;color:#fff;text-align:center;">1</div>
<div class="col-md-6 pull-right" style="height:25%;background:#080;color:#fff;text-align:center;">3</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>

Bootstrap 3 - aligning vertical and horizontal

I have been looking over other questions posted on SO and tried the CSS however I cannot seem to align the "box" HxV within the container.
What is the best way to get it to display HxV responsive?
HTML:
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-8 col-md-offset-2 center-block">
box
</div>
</div>
</div>
Create an class like .centred-col and write an rule like
.centred-col{ float: none; margin:auto;}add this after ur .col classes.
Using .container centers and auto margins your grid to begin with, there should be no need for offsets:
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-12">
box
</div>
</div>
</div>
Note: .col-xs-12 will set your column to the full width after container margins from the XS size to the LG size.

How do I change Bootstrap 3 column order on mobile layout?

I'm making a responsive layout with a top fixed navbar. Underneath I have two columns, one for a sidebar (3), and one for content (9). Which on desktop looks like this

When I resize to mobile the navbar is compressed and hidden, then the sidebar is stacked on top of the content, like this:
navbar
[3]
[9]
I would like the main content at the top, so I need to change the order on mobile to this:
navbar
[9]
[3]
I found this article which covers the same points, but the accepted answer has been edited to say that the solution no applies to the current version of Bootstrap.
How can I reorder these columns on mobile? Or alternatively, how can I get the sidbar list-group into my expanding navbar?

You cannot change the order of columns in smaller screens but you can do that in large screens.
So change the order of your columns.
<!--Main Content-->
<div class="col-lg-9 col-lg-push-3">
</div>
<!--Sidebar-->
<div class="col-lg-3 col-lg-pull-9">
</div>
By default this displays the main content first.
So in mobile main content is displayed first.
By using col-lg-push and col-lg-pull we can reorder the columns in large screens and display sidebar on the left and main content on the right.

HTML:
<div id=headline class="col-xs-12 col-sm-6 pull-right">Product Headline</div>
<div id=image class="col-xs-12 col-sm-6">Product Image</div>
<div id=qty class="col-xs-12 col-sm-6 pull-right">Qty, Add to cart</div>
<div id=hack class="hidden-xs col-sm-6">Hack</div>
<div id=caption class="col-xs-12 col-sm-6">Product image caption</div>
<div id=desc class="col-xs-12 col-sm-6 pull-right">Product description</div>
CSS:
#hack { height: 50px; }
#media (min-width: #screen-sm) {
#desc { margin-top: -50px; }
}
So, the generalized solution here is to add hack tags that can disappear on mobile. On tablet+ the hack tags allow displayed tags to appear earlier or later in the flow, then get pulled up or down to cover up those hack tags.
Note: I've used fixed heights for the sake of the simple example in the linked jsfiddle, but the actual site content I was working on varies in height in all 5 tags. It renders properly with relatively large variance in tag heights, especially image and desc.
Note 2: Depending on your layout, you may have a consistent enough column order on tablet+ (or larger resolutions), that you can avoid use of hack tags, using margin-bottom instead, like so:
Note 3: This uses Bootstrap 3. Bootstrap 4 uses a different grid set, and won't work with these examples.

I would like to add another Bootstrap 4 solution. One that worked for me.
The CSS "Order" property, combined with a media query, can be used to re-order columns when they get stacked in smaller screens.
Something like this:
#media only screen and (max-width: 768px) {
#first {
order: 2;
}
#second {
order: 4;
}
#third {
order: 1;
}
#fourth {
order: 3;
}
}
CodePen Link: https://codepen.io/preston206/pen/EwrXqm
Adjust the screen size and you'll see the columns get stacked in a different order.
I'll tie this in with the original poster's question. With CSS, the navbar, sidebar, and content can be targeted and then order properties applied within a media query.
In Bootstrap 4, if you want to do something like this:
Mobile | Desktop
-----------------------------
A | A
C | B C
B | D
D |
You need to reverse the order of B then C then apply order-{breakpoint}-first to B. And apply two different settings, one that will make them share the same cols and other that will make them take the full width of the 12 cols:
Smaller screens: 12 cols to B and 12 cols to C
Larger screens: 12 cols between the sum of them (B + C = 12)
Like this
<div class='row no-gutters'>
<div class='col-12'>
A
</div>
<div class='col-12'>
<div class='row no-gutters'>
<div class='col-12 col-md-6'>
C
</div>
<div class='col-12 col-md-6 order-md-first'>
B
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class='col-12'>
D
</div>
</div>

Starting with the mobile version first, you can achieve what you want, most of the time.

This is quite easy with jQuery using insertAfter() or insertBefore():
<div class="left">content</div>
<div class="right">sidebar</div>
<script>
$('.right').insertBefore('left');
</script>
If you want to to set o condition for mobile devices you can make it like this:
<script>
var $iW = $(window).innerWidth();
if ($iW < 992){
$('.right').insertBefore('.left');
}else{
$('.right').insertAfter('.left');
}
</script>

Its very simple, write your html the way you would want it to be viewed in mobile. Then using the bootstrap order class you can arrange how you want it to viewed on desktop.
<html>
<head>
<title>Order View</title>

<div class="row">
<div class="col order-md-2">

How to properly display content when I resize the window?

I have my page structured into 3 different modules: navigation on the left, images in the center, and social sidebar right. Below is the css that formats this content. I'm having trouble when I resize the window; the images in the center overlap with the navigation on the left and the sidebar gets pushed to the bottom of the page and overlaps with the end of the left navigation. The navigation module/sidebar is fixed.
I'm using twitter bootstrap as a base.
Any ideas on what's causing this and how to fix this?
css
div.sidebar{
width: 120px;
position:fixed;
top:12%;
left:2%;
overflow-y:auto;
height:100%;
}
html
<div class ="container-fluid">
<div class = "row-fluid">
<!-- left navigation div -->
<div class = "span1" style = "width:120px;">
<div class = "sidebar" >
#navigation
</div>
</div>
<!-- middle images div -->
<div class = "span8" style = "width: 900px;">
#lot of images
</div>
<!-- social sidebar -->
<div class = "span2" style = "margin-left: 10px; ">
#social module with images
</div>
</div>
</div>
when I make the window smaller

Have you thought about responsive web design?
You say your using twitter bootstrap? Have a look at this:
http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/scaffolding.html#responsive
Add this to the head
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<link href="assets/css/bootstrap-responsive.css" rel="stylesheet">
Change the HTML:
<div class="container-fluid">
<div class="row-fluid">
<!-- left navigation div -->
<div class="span4">
<div class = "sidebar" >
#navigation
</div>
</div>
<!-- middle images div -->
<div class="span6">
#lot of images
</div>
<!-- social sidebar -->
<div class="span4">
#social module with images
</div>
</div>
NOT TESTED. Im also not 100% how big the fluid container is, i think its 12, if its 16 you will have to change the spans so they add up to 16
Couple issues I see...
You are completely defeating the purpose of ".row-fluid" and the framework by adding widths?? Remove all width assignments to the grid elements (ie. .container, .row, .span(x)) and let the framework do what it was designed to do...create the width for you. If you need to adjust width from what is being generated, add it to block level element INSIDE of the .span(x).
Your span HAVE to add up to NO MORE than 12. You have 14 which will absolutely make the last wrap around.
Overriding the spans with inline widths will cause odd behavior. Can you use the default TBS scaffolding instead?
Suggestions :
1.Remove all the extra things you put for style let bootstrap do the things !!
2.always test your div with "well"
Put your codes like this
<div class="container">
<div class="row" style="margin-top:20px;">
<div class="col-lg-3 col-sm-12 ">
<div class="well"></div>
</div>
<div class="col-lg-3 col-sm-12 ">
<div class="well"></div>
</div>
<div class="col-lg-3 col-sm-12 ">
<div class="well"></div>
</div>
<div class="col-lg-3 col-sm-12 ">
<div class="well"></div>
</div>
</div>
col-lg-* for large device
col-xs-* for extra small device
col-sm-* for small device
use it like this you can achieve what you want
