I know you can nest rows within nested columns, but is it 'against the rules' to nest rows directly within rows?
eg:
<div class="row">
<div class="row">
cols in here
</div>
<div class="row">
cols in here
</div>
<div class="row">
cols in here
</div>
</div>
Or must these always be within columns?
is it 'against the rules' to nest rows directly within rows?
Not against the rules as such, but not a best practice as per the guidelines.
Per bootstrap guidelines, third point under introduction -
..and only columns may be immediate children of rows".
*Edit: This is still true with Bootstrap 4.0 Beta. The link to the docs above will automatically redirect to the version 3.3 documentation. Thank you #Aakash for pointing this out.
This is because of the padding which Bootstrap uses for its layout, it is a good practice to nest via row-column-row pattern i.e. nest a row with one column across to nest.
See the difference in the snippet below. The first set of markup breaks the Bootstrap layout, although nothing bad happens.

<div class="col-xs-6">Two</div>

</div>

<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-12">

<div class="col-xs-6">One</div>
<div class="col-xs-6">Two</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>

<div class="col-xs-12">Two</div>

Thank you for advice and help.
I don't know what exactly your layout should look like but here is how bootstrap column layout should look:
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-4"></div>
<div class="col-md-4"></div>
<div class="col-md-4"></div>
</div>
</div>
The problem in your code is that columns aren't a direct child of row etc.
Try to refactor the code and see if you understand what is going on...
Bootstrap columns must add up to 12 per row. If you would like multiple elements in a row, your 'col-whatevers' must add up to 12.
For example if you want your title and your button on the same row your code would need to look like this:
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-6">
<p class="text">Výtečně<br>chutnám</p>
</div>
<div class="col-6">
<img class="text-2" src="../images/unk.png" alt="!" title="!">
</div>
</div>
</div>
You would then need to add another 'row' element and fill that up with columns that add up to 12. Not sure if this is what you're asking but it's what I could make out from your question.
Also, empty 'divs' are redundant, it doesn't mean anything. You can remove all your tags that don't carry a class, id etc.
I am having trouble with my css. I am trying to have my contact information, the quote, and my contact form to be in the same row but different columns. And also why is it that my html doesn't all fit on one page, I can scroll to the rigth and there's just empty white space. I figure its because I added -1.23em in my navbars margin; However, I only did this because my navbar was not filling the whole page. Here is a link to my gist and bitballon. Thank you in advance.

You have a .row div in the nested directly under the body on line 103 that is causing the page to spread past 100% width
Bootstrap requires a containing element to wrap site contents and
house our grid system. You may choose one of two containers to use in
your projects. Note that, due to padding and more, neither container
is nestable. bootstrap containers
Regarding the contact info your nesting and class names are not correct, you currently have the following:
<div class="container-fluid" id="contact">
<div class="row">
<div class="column">
<div class="col-xs-12 col-md-12">
<div id="quote">...</div>
</div>
<div class="col-lg-4 col-md-4">
<div class="contact">...</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<form>
you will need to change this to follow bootstrap3 grid conventions, something like the following:
<div class="container">
<div class="row" id="contact">
<div class="col-sm-4">
<div id="quote">...</div>
</div>
<div class="col-sm-4">
<div class="contact">...</div>
</div>
<div class="col-sm-4">
<form>
</div>
</div>
</div>
I have this simple scenario:
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-12 col-lg-6 col-xl-7">A</div>
<div class="col-md-12 col-lg-6 col-xl-5">B</div>
</div>
basically if md
A
B
I would like it, if md
B
A
I have tried many variants found on web, like flex-first and whatnot.. can't seem to get it to work
Any ideas?
If you want to change order on md and larger sizes you can use order-md-, this is provided by bootstrap. It looks like, if you want to change order only on md size you will have to define normal order on one larger size Fiddle
<link href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.0.0-beta/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet" />
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-12 order-md-2">A</div>
<div class="col-md-12 order-md-1">B</div>
</div>
It's also possible to use the flex- helper classes to solve this issue.
This solution allows you to reverse the order without the order count on the columns.
<link href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.0.0-beta/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet" />
<div class="row flex-column-reverse flex-lg-row">
<div class="col-md-12 col-lg-6 col-xl-7">A</div>
<div class="col-md-12 col-lg-6 col-xl-5">B</div>
</div>
The flex-direction is now reversed by default (md) and will be overriden on the lg breakpoint.
For Bootstrap v4.1 you can use
<div class="row flex-row-reverse">
<div class="col-md-12 col-lg-6 col-xl-7">A</div>
<div class="col-md-12 col-lg-6 col-xl-5">B</div>
</div>
More information here: https://getbootstrap.com/docs/4.1/utilities/flex/#direction
Easiest solution will be:
.row{
flex-direction: row-reverse;
}
This works for me:
<div class="col-md order-1">First column</div>
<div class="col-md order-md-1">Second column</div>
Output on responsive state:
Second column
First column
I know the question is about Bootstrap 4, but I saw some people asking how to do it in version 5. Here's the example:
<div class="col-md-6 order-2 order-md-1">
<!-- YOUR CODE -->
</div>
<div class="col-md-6 order-1 order-md-2">
<!-- YOUR CODE -->
</div>
ref: https://getbootstrap.com/docs/5.0/layout/columns/#order-classes
For Bootstrap 5, the class names have changed to order-x where x is the order, i.e. (directly from the docs):
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col">
First in DOM, no order applied
</div>
<div class="col order-5">
Second in DOM, with a larger order
</div>
<div class="col order-1">
Third in DOM, with an order of 1
</div>
</div>
</div>

Sorry for the really confusing title. What I'm trying to do should be quite easy in theory.
I think the best way to demontrate it is by showing you an image:
1 row at the top with 2 columns, and every other column coming after that should be positioned under the second column...
Is this doable?
Thanks
That's what the "offset" classes are for. col-md-offset-1 applied to the elements in the second column (as additional class) should do what you want (for medium viewport size)
(probably you use wider columns with classes like col-md-3 that span three columns of the grid. In this case you'd need col-md-offset-3for the offset)
use col-md-offset-* class
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-offset-6" style="text-align=center;"><p>fixed column</p></div>
<div class="col-md-offset-6" style="text-align=center;"><p>col</p></div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-offset-6" style="text-align=center;"></div>
<div class="col-md-offset-6" style="text-align=center;"><p>col</p></div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-offset-6" style="text-align=center;"></div>
<div class="col-md-offset-6" style="text-align=center;"><p>col</p></div>
</div>

Bootstrap Grid System - Bootstrap Grid Examples -
Try HTML display : flex for such layout. For example refer below link.
https://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/a-guide-to-flexbox
Try below code snippet.
<div class="row-fluid">
<div class="span4"><div class="well">1</div></div>
<div class="span8">
<div class="row-fluid">
<div class="span6"><div class="well">2</div></div>
</div>
<div class="row-fluid">
<div class="span6"><div class="well">3</div></div>

<div class="row-fluid">
<div class="span6"><div class="well">4</div></div>

Because of inherited html parts when using template engines such as twig (PHP) or jinja2 (python), I may need to nest rows like below:
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="row">
</div>
...
<div class="row">
</div>
</div>
<div class="row">
...
</div>
</div>
Then should I wrap inner rows in column div like below:
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-12">
<div class="row">
</div>
...
<div class="row">
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="row">
...
</div>
</div>
Or should they be wrappered in container again?
You shouldn't wrap the nested rows in .container elements, but you should nest them in columns. Bootstrap's row class has negative left and right margins that are negated by the col-X classes' positive left and right margins. If you nest two row classes without intermediate col-X classes, you get double the negative margins.
This example demonstrates the double negative margins:
<link href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.5/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet">
<!-- GOOD! Second "row" wrapped in "col" to negate negative margins. -->
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-12" style="background: lime;">
<div class="row">
Here's my text!
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<!-- BAD! Second "row" missing wrapping "col", gets double negative margins -->
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="row" style="background: tomato;">
Where's my text?
</div>
</div>
</div>
For further reading, The Subtle Magic Behind Why the Bootstrap 3 Grid Works explains the column system in great and interesting detai.
You shouldn't wrap them in another container - containers are designed for a typical one-page layout. Unless it would look good / work well with your layout, you may want to look into container-fluid if you really want to do this.
tl;dr don't wrap in another container.
