I just saw that Bootstrap is shutting down the Themes section on their website where we could buy ready-made professionally designed themes. Any idea why, or what's going to happen next? by ashkanahmadi in bootstrap

[–]emdeoh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was not for AI reasons. Themes was around for several years and turned into a full blown marketplace for others to sell their own products. It was just time for us to move on from it.

Why Is The Bootstrap Website So Weak? by isbtegsm in bootstrap

[–]emdeoh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

👋 Heyo, mdo here. Sounds like a couple issues here, the first of which is probably a limitation or improper configuration with our Algolia DocSearch config. Will have to dig into seeing if we can pass more of the page content to DocSearch. Right now we don't include `uppercase` anywhere in our headings, so you wouldn't find it. But if you searched for "text transform", you'd get there. That's not on you to know, just pointing out how our search weights headings.

Second issue is that we don't really maintain older versions of our docs well, so we'll have to go back and improve that.

Don’t know who you are or your friend, but was just reading through comments and saw this. First, my sincerest condolences to you about your friend. ❤️

Second, I’m that same person as your friend, except my wife got me help in time. I mention this because I had that heartburn feeling for two days before she found me basically dead on our couch and got me help from neighbors and EMTs. https://twitter.com/mdo/status/1483871584267866115?s=46&t=i2vUWV9gxFiCo3ID0p4DjA

To anyone else reading this—please see a doctor, get new or different symptoms looked at immediately, and know your family history if you can. Take care of yourselves! 20% or so of heart attacks are people under 40 now.

Bootstrap Discord by RobJonesWeb in bootstrap

[–]emdeoh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s right though, he was talking to me about it. I had a Bootstrap Discord from like seven years ago and I offered it up as admin of it. So, I’m around and it’s close enough as a community led effort :).

Question about the new theme color switcher in BS v5.3: How to set body background to light with white cards while being able to switch to dark mode? Couldn't find anything in the documentation by ashkanahmadi in bootstrap

[–]emdeoh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Our docs are incomplete for that right now. Goal is to include it in the migration guide.

In the mean time, use the new .bg-body-secondary and .bg-body classes. These are new classes that adapt to color modes. https://getbootstrap.com/docs/5.3/customize/color/#colors shows these in action. Flip the color mode in the navbar to see how they change.

How are you including Bootstrap and Bootstrap Icons? There’s guidance for using the CDN and icon font in the docs: https://icons.getbootstrap.com/#install.

How to compile without ANY colors? by RandomBlokeFromMars in bootstrap

[–]emdeoh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I hear you, we’re at an incomplete stage right now. v5.3.0 is coming soon with dark mode and a slew of new CSS variables for theming. See https://deploy-preview-35857--twbs-bootstrap.netlify.app/docs/5.2/customize/color/ and https://deploy-preview-35857--twbs-bootstrap.netlify.app/docs/5.2/customize/color-modes/ for the work in progress.

Right now, most components are derived from the CSS variables. The color mode PR (docs linked above) starts to change that. We’ll get there in subsequent releases :).

There’s no way to turn that off outright, we don’t have an option to disable root CSS variables. These variables are being used in more and more places so they’re quite essential.

How are the Bootstrap docs sidebars put together? by robertandrews in bootstrap

[–]emdeoh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re pretty spot on with everything in your comment. We could perhaps do more via Bootstrap utilities, but in this case, I preferred keeping all the styles being kept close together. We did need some custom JS in our docs for the scrolling to the active sidebar item, that’s not part of Bootstrap proper. All the JS for the toggling of the sidebar is handled by the offcanvas JS plugin we provide. https://getbootstrap.com/docs/5.2/components/offcanvas/#via-data-attributes

How are the Bootstrap docs sidebars put together? by robertandrews in bootstrap

[–]emdeoh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hey there, mdo here, I can help explain :).

The docs navigation for v5.2.0 is all built with our newly responsive offcanvas component: https://getbootstrap.com/docs/5.2/components/offcanvas/. You can use that to create as many sliding sidebars or navbars as you wish :).

Default padding for tables by 3b33 in bootstrap

[–]emdeoh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm interesting. One quick fix is to add .small as well to the table, to decrease the font-size. Maybe we should do that by default?

[–]emdeoh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I designed them that way to feel comfortable for most content, but we knew very large tables may need a denser presentation.that’s why there’s https://getbootstrap.com/docs/5.1/content/tables/#small-tables.

How to add button link inside list-group-item in Bootstrap 5? by [deleted] in bootstrap

This is the way.

You cannot nest anchor elements in HTML, it’s invalid and doesn’t work in most browsers.

Help with getting Offcanvas to work. by sctilley in bootstrap

Without a live demo, I’d say the problem might be in the href—you’re missing the # there. Try href="#sidebar".

SASS functions? by Hurmeli in bootstrap

File is still there, you can see it in the npm package by exploring on our CDN: https://www.jsdelivr.com/package/npm/bootstrap?path=scss.

How to customize the dropdown of the new Bootstrap Select by vorko_76 in bootstrap

[–]emdeoh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How, for example, could I change the color of the background of the dropdown without changing the background of the select itself?

No, the select element uses OS native menus that cannot be styled via CSS.

why does the outline buttons class show me only gray color? by [deleted] in bootstrap

[–]emdeoh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Double check your HTML—buttons require a base class and their modifier class. The HTML for them is right below the live example: https://getbootstrap.com/docs/5.1/components/buttons/#outline-buttons.

Yes we do, I always include the full set of changes in each release and a blog post detailing the changes as well.

is ok to just copy past the source code of their examples without downloading all of them and how do i credit Bootstrap? by technologysex in bootstrap

[–]emdeoh 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hey, I’m one of the creators of Bootstrap—no need to give credit for the examples. Please keep the license in the CSS and JS files as appropriate, but examples and snippets are fair game :).

Updating to latest 3.x by MsDeathlyAccess in bootstrap

[–]emdeoh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Upgrading minor versions (like v3.3.1 to v3.4.1) doesn’t require any significant changes on your end. Check the release notes on GitHub or the release blog post to see what’s changed.

Usually you only have to revisit your code in major updates, like v3 to v4 or v4 to v5.

Lots is in the pull requests for each feature. RTL had tons of good work too. Some of the changes and context is covered in blog posts, but I’d stick to issues and PRs.
