            );

Placement

You can set position of every notification using position property.

Select horizontal / vertical alignment

Current position: top-right
        
            
            import React, { useState } from 'react';
            import { MDBToast, MDBContainer, MDBBtn } from 'mdb-react-ui-kit';

            export default function App() {
              const [isOpen, setIsOpen] = useState(false);

              return (
                <MDBContainer className='text-center'>
                  <MDBBtn onClick={() => setIsOpen(true)}>Show!</MDBBtn>
                  <MDBToast
                    color='info'
                    open={isOpen}
                    onClose={() => setIsOpen(false)}
                    autohide
                    position='top-right'
                    delay={2000}
                    appendToBody
                    headerContent={
                      <>
                        <strong className='me-auto'>MDBootstrap</strong>
                        <small>11 mins ago</small>
                      </>
                    }
                    bodyContent='Placement toast.'
                  />
                </MDBContainer>
              );
            }

Offset

You can also change offset or any style of a notification using style property. 

        
            
          import React, { useRef } from 'react';
          import { MDBToast, MDBBtn } from 'mdb-react-ui-kit';

          export default function App() {
            const triggerOffset = useRef(null);
            
            return (
              <>
                <MDBBtn className='mb-5' ref={triggerOffset}>
                  Show alert with offset!
                </MDBBtn>

                <MDBToast
                  color='info'
                  autohide
                  offset={50}
                  position='top-right'
                  delay={3000}
                  triggerRef={triggerOffset}
                  headerContent={
                    <>
                      <strong className='me-auto'>MDBootstrap</strong>
                      <small>11 mins ago</small>
                    </>
                  }
                  bodyContent='Offset: 50'
                />
              </>
            );
          }

Container

You can display notification anywhere. Just put your toast in your target element and fill containerRef property with a reference to the parent. 

        
            
            import React, { useRef, useState } from 'react';
            import { MDBToast, MDBBtn } from 'mdb-react-ui-kit';

            export default function App() {
              const [isOpen, setIsOpen] = useState(false);
              const wrapperRef = useRef(null);

              return (
                <div className='container text-center w-50 border' ref={wrapperRef}>
                  <MDBBtn className='mb-5' onClick={() => setIsOpen(true)}>
                    Show alert below!
                  </MDBBtn>

                  <MDBToast
                    open={isOpen}
                    onClose={() => setIsOpen(false)}
                    autohide
                    position='top-right'
                    delay={3000}
                    containerRef={wrapperRef}

                      </>

Stacking

You can create stacking notifications using MDBStack component. 

        
            
          import React, { useState } from 'react';
          import { MDBToast, MDBBtn } from 'mdb-react-ui-kit';

          export default function App() {
            const [stackingToasts, setStackingToasts] = useState<Array<Record<string, any>>>([]);
            const [stackingColor, setStackingColor] = useState(0);
          
            const handleClick = () => {
              const colors = ['primary', 'warning', 'info', 'success', 'secondary', 'danger', 'light'];
          
              stackingColor + 1 > colors.length - 1 ? setStackingColor(0) : setStackingColor(stackingColor + 1);
          
              setStackingToasts([
                ...stackingToasts,
                {
                  color: colors[stackingColor],
                  count: stackingToasts.length > 0 ? stackingToasts.length + 1 : 1,
                },
              ]);
            };
            
            return (
              <>
                <MDBBtn className='m-1' onClick={handleClick}>
                  Show toast notification
                </MDBBtn>

                {
                  stackingToasts.map((item) => (
                    <MDBToast
                      color={item.color}
                      open
                      autohide
                      width={450}
                      position='top-right'
                      delay={2000}
                      appendToBody
                      key={item.count}
                      headerContent={
                        <>
                          <strong className='me-auto'>{item.count}</strong>
                          <small>11 mins ago</small>
                        </>
                      }
                      bodyContent='Stacking Element'
                    />
                  ))
                }
              </>
            );
          }

Stacking (container)

Add position-relative class to your container and wrap notifications with MDBStack component. Stack component must have position-absolute class. 

        
            
            import React, { useState } from 'react';
            import { MDBToast, MDBBtn, MDBStack } from 'mdb-react-ui-kit';

            const colors = ['primary', 'warning', 'info', 'success', 'secondary', 'danger', 'light'];

            export default function App() {
              const [stackToasts, setStackToasts] = useState([]);
              const [counter, setCounter] = useState(1);

              return (
                <>
                  <div
                    className='container text-center position-relative  border w-50'
                    id='parent-stacking-container-example'
                    style={{
                      height: '300px',
                      overflow: 'auto',
                    }}
                  >
                    <MDBStack className='position-absolute'>
                      {stackToasts.map((toast) => {
                        const color = colors[toast.id % colors.length];
                        return (
                          <MDBToast
                            defaultOpen
                            autohide
                            delay={3000}
                            key={toast.id}
                            color={color}
                            dismissBtn
                            width={250}
                            headerContent={
                              <>
                                <strong className='me-auto'>{toast.id}</strong>
                                <small>11 mins ago</small>
                              </>
                            }
                            bodyContent={'Stacking element'}
                          ></MDBToast>
                        );
                      })}
                    </MDBStack>
                    <MDBBtn
                      onClick={() => {
                        setStackToasts([
                          ...stackToasts,
                          {
                            id: counter,
                          },
                        ]);
                        setCounter((prev) => prev + 1);
                      }}
                    >
                      Show toast notification
                    </MDBBtn>
                  </div>
                </>

CSS variables

As part of MDB’s evolving CSS variables approach, toast now use local CSS variables on .toast for enhanced real-time customization. Values for the CSS variables are set via Sass, so Sass customization is still supported, too. 

        
            
        // .toast
        --#{$prefix}toast-zindex: #{$zindex-toast};
        --#{$prefix}toast-padding-x: #{$toast-padding-x};
        --#{$prefix}toast-padding-y: #{$toast-padding-y};
        --#{$prefix}toast-spacing: #{$toast-spacing};
        --#{$prefix}toast-max-width: #{$toast-max-width};
        @include rfs($toast-font-size, --#{$prefix}toast-font-size);
        --#{$prefix}toast-color: #{$toast-color};
        --#{$prefix}toast-bg: #{$toast-background-color};
        --#{$prefix}toast-border-width: #{$toast-border-width};
        --#{$prefix}toast-border-color: #{$toast-border-color};
        --#{$prefix}toast-border-radius: #{$toast-border-radius};
