I'm using Bootstrap v. 4 for the first time.
I have a footer that is using the new flex col's and it works great on desktop. But when I switch to mobile they're stacked so closely to each other there is no vertical margin / padding.
Is this the normal behavior?
Also, I would prefer the content is centered or at least have some offset. But using offset results in top padding instead of left or right offset.
Is that normal behavior?
If so, what would be the recommended, "official", approach to adding top margin/padding on mobile only and offset?
Thank you!

"they're stacked so closely to each other there is no vertical margin / padding"
As already mentioned in the comments, and in other questions, there is no vertical spacing between columns in Bootstrap. However, Bootstrap 4 has spacing utility classes you can utilize to adjust the margins or padding...
For example my-3 will add a top and bottom (y-axis) margin to each column.
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-sm my-3">
</div>
<div class="col-sm my-3">
</div>
<div class="col-sm my-3">
</div>
<div class="col-sm my-3">
</div>
</div>
</div>

See my other answer for more info on the spacing utilities.

How do I get my svg to float:right; and float:left; in the following codepen? I am using the float-right and float-left Bootstrap 4 utility classes. But it doesn't work on my <div> elements. I'm using D3.js to create two bar charts and place them side by side.
Thank you.
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-6" id="barchart"></div>
<div class="col-6 float-right" id="barchart2"></div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-8"></div>
<div class="col-4"></div>
</div>
</div>
Instead of using float I used something similar to what Paulie_D suggested.
d-flex justify-content-end
You have added the float-right class to the parent element which is already applied the entire col-6.
You need to create a child div and apply the float-right and add your ids for the bar chart.
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-6">
<div class="float-left" id="barchart"></div>
</div>
<div class="col-6">
<div class="float-right" id="barchart2"></div>
</div>

please explain my each points and tell me how offset works in bootstrap. thanks
I have a screen split in two, using two columns.
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-6 well">
Left Box
</div>
<div class="col-md-6 well">
Right
</div>
</div>
I need a small (approx 10px) gap between the two columns.
http://www.bootply.com/vaOb1WdR5I
Can this be done?
Both boxes would need to reduce by 5 pix (in the above example), as I need the total width to remain.
Edit: Some ideas nearly work, but I am getting an extra Well that I don't want. With this:
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-6">
#Html.Action("ShowDuePayments", "Transaction")
</div>
<div class="col-md-6">
#Html.Action("ShowRecentTransactions", "Transaction")
</div>
</div>
I get this:
The 'under' well div shouldn't be visible.
A couple of points:
You shouldn't add extra classes to the Bootstrap columns (that's not a hard and fast rule, but a good recommendation)
You are missing the container wrap.
Make changes using those rules and it looks like this:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.2.0/css/bootstrap.min.css">
<script src="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.2.0/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-6">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-12">
<div class="well">Left Top Box</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-12">
<div class="well">Left Bottom Box</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-md-6">
<div class="well">Right Box</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
How about this?
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-6" style='padding-right:5px'>
<div class='well'>
Left Box
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-md-6" style='padding-left:5px'>
<div class='well'>
Right
</div>
</div>
</div>

If you remove the inline styling, you will have the natural spacing provided by bootstrap, which is 15px padding.
You can change the class of col-md-6 and add width:49%, and to the 2nd div add pull-right class like:
HTML:
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-6 well">
Left Box
</div>
<div class="col-md-6 well pull-right">
Right
</div>
</div>
CSS:
.col-md-6{
width:49%;
}
You can also try to add padding to the two div tags ie:
.col-md-6{
padding:5px;
}
This would add a bit of padding to all the sides - unless you use padding-left & padding-right and assign different class names to the divs - depending on how you want your code to be layed out.
You could also use an additional class so you only modify special column-6 elements and not all on your site. This example also uses percentage based widths as Flopet17s. You could tweak the percentage number to better fit your desired gap width.
.withgap {
width: 49%;
margin-right:1%;
}
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-6 well withgap">
Left Box
</div>
<div class="col-md-6 well">
Right
</div>
</div>
In Bootstrap, I am using col-md-6 to bring two columns but how to remove the gap in the middle and fill the spaces?
For example in photoshop:
HTML Code:
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-6">
<div class="blue-section">
1
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-md-6">
<div class="red-section">
2
</div>
</div>
</div>
Note: I just want to apply for this section only, not everything by default.
Assuming that you want to have just the backgrounds touching, then you don't need to do anything. The column gutters (that are represented on your photoshop file by the blue lines) in Bootstrap are produced by padding. So, you can simply do the following to achieve what's in your photoshop file:
HTML:
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-6 blue-section">
1
</div>
<div class="col-md-6 red-section">
2
</div>
</div>
</div>
CSS:
.blue-section{background:blue;}
.red-section{background:red;}
This will result in still having padding for your content.
Use the .row with negative margins to remove the gutter (padding) between columns..
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-6">
<div class="row blue-section">
1
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-md-6">
<div class="row red-section">
2
</div>
</div>
</div>
Demo: http://www.bootply.com/TytFvxummt
It's a pretty old question, but just to make it helpful for anyone coming now, Bootstrap now has a g (gutter) class which removes the spaces in between edges of columns.
<div class="row g-0"> // the g-0 will remove all spaces. Ranges from 0-5.
<div class="col-6">
// content
</div>
<div class="col-6">
// content
</div>
</div>
For Bootstrap 5, you can refer to this link as well if needed: https://getbootstrap.com/docs/5.0/layout/gutters/
i think you have to take your structure like this
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-6">
<div class="row">1</div>
</div>
<div class="col-md-6">
<div class="row">2</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Using this:
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-6">
<div class="blue-section">
1
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-md-6">
<div class="red-section">
2
</div>
</div>
</div>
Will achieve that, have you added any padding or margins on the divs? By default there is none on the bootstrap rows/cols. So it must be with the css on .red-section & .blue-section?
I added a background colour to the cols so you can see, http://jsfiddle.net/bnyrL54u/
Hope this helps.
Using Bootstrap, I have a grid column class="col-lg-3" that I want to place it in position:fixed while the other .col-lg-9 is normal position (scroll-able through the page).
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-3">
Fixed content
</div>
<div class="col-lg-9">
Normal scrollable content
</div>
</div>
Just the same way like the left column in LifeHacker.com
You will see that the left part is fixed however I scroll though the page.
I use bootstrap v3.1.1
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-3">
<div class="affix">
fixed position
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-lg-9">
Normal data enter code here
</div>
</div>
iterating over Ihab's answer, just using position:fixed and bootstraps col-offset you don't need to be specific on the width.
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-3" style="position:fixed">
Fixed content
</div>
<div class="col-lg-9 col-lg-offset-3">
Normal scrollable content
</div>
</div>
Following the solution here http://jsfiddle.net/dRbe4/,
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-3 fixed">
Fixed content
</div>
<div class="col-lg-9 scrollit">
Normal scrollable content
</div>
</div>
I modified some css to work just perfect:
.fixed {
position: fixed;
width: 25%;
}
.scrollit {
float: left;
width: 71%
}
Thanks #Lowkase for sharing the solution.
in Bootstrap 3 class="affix" works, but in Bootstrap 4 it does not.
I solved this problem in Bootstrap 4 with class="sticky-top"
(using position: fixed in CSS has its own problems)
code will be something like this:
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-3">
<div class="sticky-top">
Fixed content
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-lg-9">
Normal scrollable content
</div>
</div>
Updated for Bootstrap 4
Bootstrap 4 now includes a position-fixed class for this purpose so there is no need for additional CSS...
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-3">
<div class="position-fixed">
Fixed content
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-lg-9">
Normal scrollable content
</div>
</div>
</div>
https://www.codeply.com/go/yOF9csaptw
Bootstrap 5
The solution is very similar to v4, but you can use responsive variations with .sticky-*-top classes.
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-3">
<div class="sticky-md-top">
Fixed content
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-lg-9">
Normal scrollable content
</div>
</div>
Docs: https://getbootstrap.com/docs/5.0/helpers/position/#responsive-sticky-top
Use this, works for me and solve problems with small screen.
<div class="row">
<!-- (fixed content) JUST VISIBLE IN LG SCREEN -->
<div class="col-lg-3 device-lg visible-lg">
<div class="affix">
fixed position
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-lg-9">
<!-- (fixed content) JUST VISIBLE IN NO LG SCREEN -->
<div class="device-sm visible-sm device-xs visible-xs device-md visible-md ">
<div>
NO fixed position
</div>
</div>
Normal data enter code here
</div>
</div>
With bootstrap 4 just use col-auto
<div class="container-fluid">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-sm-auto">
Fixed content
</div>
<div class="col-sm">
Normal scrollable content
</div>
</div>
</div>
If you really want to do it that way, you can't do it in "col- *", because it's going to overlap each other, you should do it in the parent class "row", but depending on what you're doing, you might have a problem with the browser scroll that will be "cut" from the screen, however, is simple to solve, just control the column width and everything will be fine.
<div class="row fixed-top h-100">
<div class="col-lg-3">
Fixed content
</div>
<div class="col-lg-9 overflow-auto h-100">
Normal scrollable content
</div>
</div>
Use .col instead of col-lg-3 :
<div class="row">
<div class="col">
Fixed content
</div>
<div class="col-lg-9">
Normal scrollable content
</div>
</div>
