Bootstrap Dropdowns

Dropdowns are contextual overlays that can be toggled to display lists of links and other information. The supplied Bootstrap dropdown JavaScript plugin makes them interactive. It's an intentional design decision that they're toggled by clicking rather than hovering.
Popper, a third-party library that supports dynamic positioning and viewport detection, is used to create dropdowns. Use bootstrap.bundle.min.js / bootstrap.bundle.js, which contains Popper, or include popper.min.js before Bootstrap's JavaScript. However, because dynamic positioning isn't required, Popper isn't utilised to position dropdowns in navbars.
Examples
Wrap the dropdown’s toggle (your button or link) and the dropdown menu within .dropdown
, or another element that declares position: relative;
. Dropdowns can be triggered from <a>
or <button>
elements to better fit your potential needs. The examples shown here use semantic <ul>
elements where appropriate, but custom markup is supported.
Example:
Any single .btn
can be turned into a dropdown toggle with some markup changes. Here’s how you can put them to work with either <button>
elements:
<div class="dropdown">
<button class="btn btn-secondary dropdown-toggle" type="button" id="dropdownMenuButton1" data-bs-toggle="dropdown" aria-expanded="false">
Dropdown button
</button>
<ul class="dropdown-menu" aria-labelledby="dropdownMenuButton1">
<li><a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Action</a></li>
<li><a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Another action</a></li>
<li><a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Something else here</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
The best part is you can do this with any button variant, too:
<!-- Example single danger button -->
<div class="btn-group">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-danger dropdown-toggle" data-bs-toggle="dropdown" aria-expanded="false">
Action
</button>
<ul class="dropdown-menu">
<li><a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Action</a></li>
<li><a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Another action</a></li>
<li><a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Something else here</a></li>
<li>
<hr class="dropdown-divider">
</li>
<li><a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Separated link</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
a button to split
Create split button dropdowns using the same markup as single button dropdowns, but with the addition of.
For adequate space around the dropdown caret, use dropdown-toggle-split.
We utilise this extra class to eliminate the margin-left that is added to standard button dropdowns and lower the horizontal padding on either side of the caret by 25%. These further adjustments maintain the caret centred in the split button and create a larger hit area next to the main button.
Example
<!-- Example split danger button -->
<div class="btn-group">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-danger">Action</button>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-danger dropdown-toggle dropdown-toggle-split" data-bs-toggle="dropdown" aria-expanded="false">
<span class="visually-hidden">Toggle Dropdown</span>
</button>
<ul class="dropdown-menu">
<li><a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Action</a></li>
<li><a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Another action</a></li>
<li><a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Something else here</a></li>
<li>
<hr class="dropdown-divider">
</li>
<li><a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Separated link</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
