I am using the grid system (Bootstrap 3.3.4) to try to make about four columns. The only problem is it puts the grid in the background. And the footer just sits on top of everything in the grid. Here is the jsFiddle, notice how the last little bit of text is cut off by the navbar on the bottom. Here is my code:
<div class="jumbotron">
<h1>Example page header</h1>
</div>
<div class="col-md-2">
<div ng-repeat="category in main_business_categories">
{{category}}
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-md-2">
<p>column2</p>
</div>
<div class="col-md-2">
<p>third</p>
</div>
<div class="col-md-6">
<p>fourth</p>
</div>
<div class="navbar navbar-default navbar-fixed-bottom">
<div class="container">

How do I get it to where everything (header, footer, and text in grid) are all on the same depth. Right now, grid is in background and everything else is in foreground.
First you should wrap your columns inside a .container or .container-fluid and .row: https://jsfiddle.net/bhbhv38f/2/
The .navbar-fixed-bottom cause the behaviour you describe. You should remove that class to get the footer at the end of your content, see https://jsfiddle.net/bhbhv38f/3/

I have a complex Bootstrap-4 grid-layout. Now, suddenly inside a column, I need to make the background (not the content!) reach from left of the browser-window to the right of the browser-window, the whole width. Is there any way this can be done?
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col">
<h2 class="font-weight-light">Hello!</h2>
<p>
This background should stay white.
</p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="row mybackground">
<div class="col">
The red background should fill ALL of the browser-width from left to right, but keep the area above and below with white background.
</div>
</div>
</div>

If you look at the fiddle, the background of < div class="mybackground" > should reach from left to right (no white paddings left and right), but the content of it should stay as it is.
Any idea how to do this with the least amount of changes (because unfortunately there are a lot places in the code where this needs to be done, so a simple css-class would be awesome).
Instead of adding rows inside a container, you should now have sections with containers.
An example:
<link href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.0.0/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet" />
<section>
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col">
<h2 class="font-weight-light">Hello!</h2>
<p>This background should stay white.</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</section>
<section>
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col">
<h2 class="font-weight-light">Hello!</h2>
<p>This background should stay white.</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="container-fluid">
<div class="row bg-danger text-white">
<!--div class="col"-->
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col">
<p class="mt-3">The red background should fill ALL of the browser-width from left to right, but keep the area above and below with white background.</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<!--/div-->
</div>
</div>
</section>
The container-fluid can stretch full width. To align the content you'll have to introduce a container again.
You'll end up with quite a lot of nesting which doesn't look too pretty but I don't know another Bootstrap way around this.
This result will be fully responsive regarding the spacing.
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 am starting out with bootstrap here and I want my page to limit itself to 1170px which is the container class standard, but I want the color to continue across the full width of the page.
The only idea I can think of is:
<div class="container-fluid BGtoExtendWholePage headerBG">
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-12">
Main Body of Page - Header
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="container-fluid BGtoExtendWholePage ContentBG">
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-12">
Main Body of Page - Main Content
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
There's big arguments against nesting containers in Bootstrap (cue the person to post a link to the bit of documentation saying not to) but I found this to work.
You nest a container within a container-fluid - note the use of p-0 to remove the padding from the inner container.
<div class="container-fluid bg-red mb-3">
<div class="row">
<div class="container p-0 mt-6 mb-6">
...
</div>
</div>
</div>
If you want a full-width background color that is the same in your whole project then you could simply add a <body> tag at the beginning and end of your code (if it isn't already there) and add the following to your CSS
body {
background-color: color-choise;
}
Fill in the color-choise with the color you want it to be.
I can't seem to get this well to align with the center of the page. It seems like it should be easy but I can't figure it out.
You can use offset classes provided by Bootstrap
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-6 col-lg-offset-3">
<div class="well">
Content
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>

Bootstrap is based on a grid system of 12 columns. If you want the above message submission box centered I would place it in a column space of ~6 and have ~3 columns on each side of it like this:
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-3">[Empty DIV]</div>
<div class="col-xs-6">[Summision Box]</div>
<div class="col-xs-3">[Empty DIV]</div>
</div>
I'm having a really simple problem with css but the solution is not coming to me. It's about positioning elements in a grid, I want the grid elements to look like this, but instead they are coming out to look like this. I tried putting one tag inside the other and then attempting to remove the box model from it (margin and padding) but the div is offset. I've tried nesting both inside a div tag but that doesn't work either.
I attempted to do a jsfiddle but it's not loading correctly. Fiddle . required random code below of the html.
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-12" style="height:85.3px">empty top</div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-4" style="height:85.3px">logo</div>
<div></div>
<div class="col-md-7" style="height:40px">head text
<div class="col-md-7" style="margin-left:0px;padding-left:0px;margin-top:40px;box-sizing:border-box;">nav</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Just fyi the bootstrap col-md-1 through col-md-12 are bootstraps grid positioning system. I think they have to add up to 12 to form a single line. Here is the bootstrap html i am using.
and the grid css . and bootstrap
Your jsfiddle is not displaying correctly because the default iframe size is too small, but you can change the width to view the page in a manner consistent with your problem. Your problem is that you have a div nested inside another div by mistake. Try the following instead:
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-12" style="height:85.3px">empty top</div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-4" style="height:85.3px">logo</div>
<div class="col-md-8" style="height:45.3px">head text</div>
<div class="col-md-8" style="height:40px;">nav</div>
</div>
</div>
<!-- /container -->
