(There's a similar question here, but I am too much of a noob yet to translate this onto Bootstrap)
What I want is to have an area on the page between "header" and "footer" (let's call it "body"), which may have a
some fixed section, like BS4 "row", put on the top,
some variable content, consisting of several BS "rows", AND aligned
vertically on the middle of what is left of the body (or of the body
itself)
Can it be done in a responsive manner, and without JS (using only Bootstrap 4 CSS) ?
I've tried some stuff:
<body>
<div id="root" class="container">
<div style="height: 100%;">
<div><h1>HEADER</h1></div><hr>
<div style="min-height: 60%;">
<div class="h100">
<div>some badge</div><br>
<div>
<div class="row justify-content-between">
<div class="col-3">Item #2</div>
<div class="col-3 text-right">
<div>some stats</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="">
<div class="row justify-content-center">
<div class="col text-center"><h3>THIS SHOULD BE IN THE MIDDLE OF A BLANK SPACE</h3></div>
</div>
<div class="row justify-content-center">
<div class="col-4 text-right"><button class="btn btn-link">it's just below and left</button></div>
<div class="col-4 text-left"><button class="btn btn-link">it's just below and right</button></div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div><hr>
<div class="footer">FOOTER</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
(https://jsfiddle.net/f93mhdbr/) but as long as I add "d-flex" onto "body" div, or any of it's children, all the previous "row"/"col"-based layout turns into horrible mess ! (see https://jsfiddle.net/f93mhdbr/2/)
I suspect this is due to Bootstrap itself using Flexbox for column and rows,
but maybe any solution exists?
I will try to work on improving this question, I know it's very poor, but I right now I am too much in a despair to work it all out...
UPDATE: added links to whatever I was trying to reproduce
You need to use the flex property to achieve it. Using flex-grow here will make your variable element to grow and fill the remaining height of its container, if there is any. Then all is left to do is set align-items-center on the element to align it on the x-axis.
Here is the Fiddle
Please note I added background-colors so it's easier for you to see how much space each element uses, or use an inspector.
You can set any fixed height for the header, footer and content-top. The height of content and content-remaining will adapt responsively, because they have the property flex-grow: 1 set on them. Here's an example.
To explain further, because the container wrap has a min-height: 100-vh, the content element will grow to fill the entire viewport relative to the rest of the flexible items inside the wrap container. The same logic applies to content-remaining, the only difference is that its parent is the content element and not the wrap container.
As last, I added the IE fix for the min-height property on flex-items. It's a known bug and a quick and reliable fix is to wrap it in a separate flex container.
Hopefully this was helpful to you, if you have any questions left please comment on this answer.

I want to create a faq page like Twitter's FAQ. The left column stays on that position even though the user keep scrolling.
So far here's what I made but it doesn't work.
<template>
<div>header here</div>
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-4">
<div style="position: sticky;">
1 of 2
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-lg-8">
2 of 2
</div>
</div>
</div>
</template>
According to this, we should add sticky property, but it doesn't work.
edit: I think it's because the two columns have the same height, so adding sticky property does not work. Any solutions on how to make the column height fit to the content only?
Any solution? Thank you!!
Position Sticky is not working on col-sm-4 because its parent class row has display:flex property. if you change
display:flex
to
display:block
then position Sticky property will work but it will change your design
I know Bootstrap is design mobile first. I wonder if the possible layout is possible with just Bootstrap's CSS classes?
Figure A on size col-md or larger
And when screen is col-sm or col-xs, go to B or C. (2 different solutions).
I'm looking for the correct div layouts for A->B and A->C.
The heights for each section are random because the content generated in them will be dynamic. I added heights in the divs just for filler, but they will be dynamic and can't be set.
The following DOES NOT work...
Fiddle ... https://jsfiddle.net/s4jj30wf/
<div class="row">
<div style="background:blue" class="col-xs-12 col-md-4">
<div style="height:100px"></div>
</div>
<div style="background:yellow" class="col-md-8 col-xs-12">
<div class="row">
<div style="background:green" class="col-md-12 col-xs-12">
<div style="height:20px"></div>
</div>
<div style="background:pink" class="col-md-12 col-xs-12">
<div style="height:100px"></div>
</div>
<div style="background:red" class="col-md-12 col-xs-12">
<div style="height:100px"></div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div style="background:orange" class="col-md-4 col-md-pull-4 col-xs-12">
<div style="height:50px"></div>
</div>
</div>
Solution: There are 2 ways based on if the columns have static height or dynamic height. If they have static height then we have a pure css solution using the float and clear property as well as margin-top property to achieve this.
Sample pure css with fixed height of columns:
http://codepen.io/Nasir_T/pen/ZBOgoe
If the height is not fixed and dynamic then we will need use of jquery to adjust the margin-top property in order to dynamically kill the gap between the mis-aligned 2 elements based on A->B and A->C scenario. We will be using the default jquery and modernizr js for this simple solution.

Hope this helps.
I think what you maybe looking for is column ordering where you can .push-md- and .pull-md-
In document there is some flow of elements, you can't just mix them as you like unless you position them absolutely.
Using only bootstrap classes, I think the only way how to do that is to duplicate the content - you will have all A, B and C in the page and based on screen size display the one you want - using classes visible-xs, hidden-sm etc.
But duplicating content is usually not wise idea.
I have div in container that I want to be col--8 with offset-2 on medium, large, and extra large screens - this would put it in center of page and smaller with wide, however at same time when screen is small or extra small I want to offset to be removed and col--12 div being of full with
I tried with:
<div class="col-xs-12 col-xs-offset-0 col-md-8 col-md-offset-2" >
Some content here...
</div>
What I doing wrong ?
Ps. I also using angular on page...
Remove col-xs-offset-0. it is not necessary.
here is a forked jsFiddle
The classes that you have there should do the job so long as you have properly wrapped the div in parent .container and .row div elements. Including those wrappers would look like the following:
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-12 col-md-8 col-md-offset-2" >
Some content here...
</div>
</div>
</div>
In Bootstrap 4 the syntax is a little bit change
col-lg-10 offset-lg-2
I am looking to have all the elements in my div (which is a bootstrap column actually) while keeping the text in there left-align.
So my code looks like this :
I want the p, span and a to be horizontally centered, while their content (the texts) should be left-align.
<div class='col-sm-4 col-md-4'>
<p>...</p>
<span>...</span>
<a>...</a>
</div>
(the number of columns varies, I have 3 here, but that could be more really).
What I tried to do in my css was to add some left-padding in percentages according to the number of columns. It does work quite well, but I am sure there is an easier way to achieve this.
by the way, dont forget to add "class=" ;).
If i understood you right, there are two possibilities.
first:
<div class="col-md-12">
<div class="col-md-4 .col-md-offset-4">
<p>...</p>
<span>...</span>
<a>...</a>
</div>
</div>
This would create an offset of "col-md-4". Thus, 4 - 4 - 4, it would be centered.
Another, neater solution would be:
<div class="col-md-12">
<div class="wrapper" style="width:300px;position:relative;margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto;">
<p>...</p>
<span>...</span>
<a>...</a>
</div>
</div>
That way you create a wrapper that is centered through setting the margins left and right automatically.
For that solution you need to provide the position(relative etc, but not static) and the width!
hope it helps.
I'll just show you a jsfiddle I've created to illustrate what I'm trying to achieve:
http://jsfiddle.net/vraG7/3/embedded/result/
Here's the code for that part:
<div class="row">
<div class="twelve columns">
<h2 class="first_column category_title">Nome Categoria</h2>
<div class="row">
<div class="nine columns thumbnail"><img
src="http://www.placehold.it/125x125" alt=""></div>
<div class="three columns date"><time
datetime="2013-02-28" >28<br>02<br>2013</time></div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="twelve columns">
<h2 class="post-title">Titolto del post</h2>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div> <!-- category-column -->
What I'm trying to do is to have the 125x125 image and the date box to its right to be the same width as the orange box with "Nome categoria". I thought I did everything right, but apparently I'm missing something.
It is hard to say what exactly the problem is. You are overriding a lot of foundation styles. height, margin, etc. on a bunch of divs.
1) You are applying the background color that you hope to align to to an <h2>. I suggest applying it to the containing <div>. the h2 will never to do the edge of the div, therefore you will not be able to align them.
2) for the date you applying the color to the background. it is possible they are already aligned. if you change the above.
3) for troubleshooting nested grids, it is easy to add the panel class to all of them, this will increase the spacing but let you see the relationship of each nested grid to each other.
this is on foundation 4, but might be useful:
