Bootstrap 3 responsive classes change display property - css

When upgrading my project from Bootstrap 2.3 to Bootstrap 3.0 I noticed that adding a responsive class, e.g. hidden-sm to an element, changes its CSS display property to block.
To make things worse, the new display property is set as !important, making it difficult (or at least ugly) to overwrite by custom CSS rules.
For example, the code (view result here: http://jsfiddle.net/RZ95F/)
<h1>
Heading
<small>sub-Heading</small>
</h1>
gives a different result than the code (view result here: http://jsfiddle.net/vTuW8/)
<h1>
Heading
<small class="hidden-sm">sub-Heading</small>
</h1>
namely adding a line-break between the heading and the sub-heading.
Of course, this strange behavior also applies to much more complicated cases, making it very hard for me to upgrade my project without major markup and CSS changes just to compensate for this new Bootstrap behavior.
What did the Bootstrap team try to accomplish by changing the display behavior of those elements? And is there an easy workaround to restore the behavior known from Bootstrap 2.3 and earlier?

This is tracked on GitHub as #8869. A simple workaround shown there is to add a separate inline helper class:
.hidden-inline-xs {
display: inline !important;
}
#media (max-width: 767px) {
.hidden-inline-xs {
display: none !important;
}
}
Then you can just use
<h1>
Heading
<small class="hidden-inline-xs">sub-Heading</small>
</h1>

Bootstrap 4 - CSS without any global styles

I'm developing a small control which is directly embedded in a parent page (without iFrame).
My control is written using react-bootstrap, so the bootstrap4 css is also embedded along with my control.
While developing my app as standalone, everything was fine.
After embedding it however, it turns out that there are some "global" bootstrap styles, such as the so called "list-styles" that don't get applied only on HTML elements having bootstrap classes, but instead on any matching HTML tag.
This causes the parent page's layout to get scrambled once my control is loaded.
Examples for bootstrap classes that are applied globally and which cause problems for me are styles like these which can be found in the bootstrap4 default css:
dl, ol, ul {
margin-top: 0;
margin-bottom: 1rem;
}
or
label {
display: inline-block;
margin-bottom: .5rem;
}
This is very unfortunate for my use case. Is there a way for getting rid of any styles in bootstrap, which are not linked to any proper css bootstrap class? I don't want any styling of HTML tags that are not explicitly linked to a bootstrap class.
Thanks for your help.
I can think of three options, though I'm not sure they will do for you:
Paste Bootstrap's styles into a local file (instead of getting them from a CDN or something) and delete what you don't want (most of the unwanted styles should be at the top of the file)
Look for another, more minimal version of Bootstrap. I don't know if such versions/customizations exist but they very well might
Don't use Bootstrap. You can just as easily write your own css lines (personally I find that Bootstrap makes you lose control over your styling, but that's my opinion)

How to refer to an Angular component's full template setting CSS without referring to any tags?

My usual setup for each view is an outer DIV that I style as the base background etc.
<div class="outer">
<!-- Actual stuff in here -->
</div>
Then, in the SASS, I refer to it like so.
div.outer { ... }
That adds one lever of indent and seems like an unnecessary (though minor) increment in complexity. So I wonder if it's possible to add a style to the template itself. Partly, to lower the complexity. Partly, because I'm going to have text-only elements with no tags at all.
Is it possible to set the style of template from SASS files if there are no tags, only text in it?
You can apply styling to the component host element with the :host selector:
:host {
color: red;
}
See this stackblitz for a demo.

Override Wordpress CSS

I have wordpress site with some layout.
I need to change some css there, but got troubles overriding it.
Via webbrowser my CSS looks like:
It is places (genetated?) somewhere in theme.
Every time I refresh page I got different 'class-xyz' (on the screen it is: class-GkgfbCohxE) name in #inbound-list
I have added to custom CSS below (changed color):
But this is not loaded.
All structure of this CSS:
Do you know how to enable ovverriding this element?
It depends on the theme and plugin you use.
For my experience, this dynamic inline CSS may come from the page builder you use. If it comes from page builder, please check your page builder and adjust the style.
If you want to overwrite the css, you could simply put !important after the color attributes.
To override this css you need to use any parent id like below or you can apply some id to your body tag and write ur css with its reference
see my ex below
#parent #one li{
color: blue;
}
#one.asd li{
color: red;
}
<div id="parent">
<ul id="one" class="asd">
<li>aaa</li>
<li>bb</li>
<li>adfdf</li>
</ul>
</div>
If it's a your theme styles, you can create a child-theme, then overwrite the styles. You can also use the same selector in the child-theme css, WordPress knows that it has to take the ones from the child-theme.

Angular UI bootstrap progressbar minimum width

I am trying to set the minimum width of the angular UI bootstrap progressbar. I checked the docs and they do not mention how to do this. I know for the 'regular' bootstrap you can use something like style="min-width: 10em;". However this only works if you wrap it in the standard progress bootstrap divs like so:
<div class="progress">
<uib-progressbar class="progress-striped active progress-bar" value="value" style="min-width: 10em;">
<span> text </span></uib-progressbar>
</div>
But this displays a progressbar bar without the 'active' animation since regular bootstrap does not support this. When I try it like so it does not set the min-width property
<uib-progressbar class="progress-striped active progress-bar"value="value" style="min-width: 10em;">
<span> text </span>
</uib-progressbar>
edit: I overlooked the animation section in the 'regular' bootstrap docs. I would however like to use the UI bootstrap progressbar if possible.
Regular Bootstrap supports animated progress bars.
Are you sure that you correctly imported Boostrap files? I think you might have included only the CSS file but not the JS. Take a look at the basic template to see which files you should include.
Take also a look at the uib-progressbar documentation. The code snippet you wrote seems to be correct. As I said, I think the reason for this problem is that you didn't include the JS file for Bootstrap.
EDIT: Oh, ui-bootstrap apparently doesn't need Bootstrap's JS, you're right.
Regarding the min-width part of your question: I noticed that you added the progress-bar class to the <uib-progressbar> element. According to the documentation, the progress-bar class should not be used (it will be added by ui-bootstrap to the <div> element that will be rendered inside <uib-progressbar>, and you can easily verify this by inspecting the progress bar width devtools).
Thus, the min-width property is to be applied to the internal <div>. However, since the rendering is managed by angular, the only way to change it is to add a CSS rule like this:
.setminwidth .progress-bar {
min-width: 20em;
}
And then add the new setminwidth class to the external <uib-element> like this:
<uib-progressbar class="progress-striped setminwidth" value="22" type="warning">22%</uib-progressbar>
I tested this but it doesn't seem to work. I think it's because min-width: 0; is hardcoded in the template, and it gets reset everytime ui-bootstrap re-renders the element.
I tried adding !important to the CSS rule, to avoid being overridden, but it doesn't work either.
I guess at this point you should consider why you need to add this min-width property, since ui-bootstrap likes to override it. Could it be because you don't want the progress bar to be "too empty" when the % is low? If that's the case, I think you should look up the changes recently introduced by Bootstrap: it seems that now they add a special min-width for 0%, 1% and 2%.
UPD: The Bootstrap folks apparently changed their mind and reverted the special min-width value. At this point, I think that ui-bootstrap should follow along and remove the hardcoded min-width: 0; as it's not needed anymore. I just sent a pull-request to them. If they merge it, you will be able to use the CSS I posted above.

using Bootstrap and foundation together?

I am using twitter bootstrap for layout and css. But I like the foundation top bar navigation over what bootstrap provides. I tried to use the top bar code inside my html (built with bootstrap) and it messes up the layout. That is not surprising because both of them rely extensively on class named "row" and they have different properties.
One of the options I could think off is to override the row class some how in my style sheet but that would be too much of a work and doesn't seem right.
Other option might be using iframe.
Is there any other way this issue can be solved?
Ideally, you only need to use the top-bar CSS and JS code of Foundation, since that is the only component you mean to use. Here is the SCSS file (with dependancies on the variables declared in _settings.scss. Or you can use the generated CSS code.
If you still need to use .row, just copy the .row styling and name it different. I.e:
/* The Grid ---------------------- */
.foundation-row { width: 1000px; max-width: 100%; min-width: 768px; margin: 0 auto; }
Finally, dont't forget to include the jquery.foundation.topbar.js file and calling
$(document).foundationTopBar();
Old question but thought I'll share the latest if someone is looking for a seamless solution: Web Components
It's a bit of a more complex subject but will allow you to create widgets within completely isolated Shadow DOM's without overriding a thing. Read more about it
here and here. Then you'll be able to do something like this:
<template id="templateContent">
<style> #import "css/generalStyle.css"; </style>
</template>
Taken from this answer
Using an iframe for this is a bad idea. If you like the style for the Foundation top bar, just copy those styles into a custom class in your stylesheet.
Please note that you may have to override some of Bootstrap's default styles for the top bar to get it right.
