Dropdowns

Bootstrap dropdowns

Toggle contextual overlays for displaying lists of links and more with the Bootstrap dropdown plugin.

Overview

Dropdowns are toggleable, contextual overlays for displaying lists of links and more. They’re made interactive with the included Bootstrap dropdown JavaScript plugin. They’re toggled by clicking, not by hovering; this is an intentional design decision.

In case of more complicated navigations systems dropdowns are the essential elements providing you with possibility of placing all the most relevant links in our navigation bar (or other component acting as navigation - such as SideNav)

Aside from being not only highly functional, MDB dropdowns are also extraordinary visually attractive. It gives them this characteristic Material Design effects, like shadows, living colors or charming waves effect after opening a link.

They’re toggled by clicking, not by hovering; this is an intentional design decision. Why?

MDB is "mobile first" framework so, we avoid mixing functional elements and interaction by hovering because it decreases User Experience of users of mobile devices.

Google Material Design guidelines recommend the same approach.

Accessibility

The WAI ARIA standard defines an actual role="menu" widget, but this is specific to application-like menus which trigger actions or functions. ARIA menus can only contain menu items, checkbox menu items, radio button menu items, radio button groups, and sub-menus.

Bootstrap’s dropdowns, on the other hand, are designed to be generic and applicable to a variety of situations and markup structures. For instance, it is possible to create dropdowns that contain additional inputs and form controls, such as search fields or login forms. For this reason, Bootstrap does not expect (nor automatically add) any of the role and aria- attributes required for true ARIA menus. Authors will have to include these more specific attributes themselves.

However, Bootstrap does add built-in support for most standard keyboard menu interactions, such as the ability to move through individual .dropdown-item elements using the cursor keys and close the menu with the ESC key.

Examples

Wrap the dropdown’s toggle (your button or link) and the dropdown menu within <button> elements to better fit your potential needs.

Single button

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:

HTML



        <div class="btn-group">

          <!-- Basic dropdown -->
          <button class="btn btn-primary dropdown-toggle mr-4" type="button" data-toggle="dropdown" aria-haspopup="true"
            aria-expanded="false">Basic dropdown</button>

          <div class="dropdown-menu">
            <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Action</a>
            <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Another action</a>
            <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Something else here</a>
            <div class="dropdown-divider"></div>
            <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Separated link</a>
          </div>
          <!-- Basic dropdown -->

          <!--Dropdown primary-->
          <div class="dropdown">

            <!--Trigger-->
            <button class="btn btn-primary dropdown-toggle" type="button" id="dropdownMenu1" data-toggle="dropdown"
              aria-haspopup="true" aria-expanded="false">Material dropdown</button>


            <!--Menu-->
            <div class="dropdown-menu dropdown-primary">
              <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Action</a>
              <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Another action</a>
              <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Something else here</a>
              <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Something else here</a>
            </div>
          </div>
          <!--/Dropdown primary-->
        </div>

And with <a> elements:

HTML



        <div class="btn-group">

          <!-- Basic dropdown -->
          <a class="btn btn-primary dropdown-toggle mr-4" type="button" data-toggle="dropdown" aria-haspopup="true"
            aria-expanded="false">Basic dropdown</a>

          <div class="dropdown-menu">
            <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Action</a>
            <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Another action</a>
            <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Something else here</a>
            <div class="dropdown-divider"></div>
            <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Separated link</a>
          </div>
          <!-- Basic dropdown -->

          <!--Dropdown primary-->
          <div class="dropdown">

            <!--Trigger-->
            <a class="btn btn-primary dropdown-toggle" type="button" id="dropdownMenu2" data-toggle="dropdown"
              aria-haspopup="true" aria-expanded="false">Material dropdown</a>


            <!--Menu-->
            <div class="dropdown-menu dropdown-primary">
              <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Action</a>
              <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Another action</a>
              <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Something else here</a>
              <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Something else here</a>
            </div>
          </div>
          <!--/Dropdown primary-->
        </div>

Split button

Similarly, create split button dropdowns with virtually the same markup as single button dropdowns, but with the addition of .dropdown-toggle-split for proper spacing around the dropdown caret.

We use this extra class to reduce the horizontal padding on either side of the caret by 25% and remove the margin-left that’s added for regular button dropdowns. Those extra changes keep the caret centered in the split button and provide a more appropriately sized hit area next to the main button.

HTML



        <!-- Split button -->
        <div class="btn-group">
          <button type="button" class="btn btn-danger">Danger</button>
          <button type="button" class="btn btn-danger dropdown-toggle px-3" data-toggle="dropdown" aria-haspopup="true"
            aria-expanded="false">
            <span class="sr-only">Toggle Dropdown</span>
          </button>
          <div class="dropdown-menu">
            <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Action</a>
            <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Another action</a>
            <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Something else here</a>
            <div class="dropdown-divider"></div>
            <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Separated link</a>
          </div>
        </div>

It's very easy to use dropdown search.

Only what you have to do is add #ID to menu wrapper and initiate function with JavaScript code.

JavaScript
HTML



        $('#your-custom-id').mdbDropSearch();



        <!--Dropdown primary-->
        <div class="dropdown">
          <!--Trigger-->
          <button class="btn btn-primary dropdown-toggle" type="button" id="dropdownMenu1-1" data-toggle="dropdown">Bootstrap
            search</button>

          <!--Menu-->
          <div class="dropdown-menu dropdown-primary" id="your-custom-id">
            <input class="form-control" type="text" placeholder="Search" aria-label="Search">
            <a class="dropdown-item mdb-dropdownLink-1" href="https://mdbootstrap.com/">MDB</a>

          <button type="button" class="btn btn-primary dropdown-toggle px-3" data-toggle="dropdown" aria-haspopup="true"
            aria-expanded="false">
            <span class="sr-only">Toggle Dropdown</span>
          </button>
          <div class="dropdown-menu">
            <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Action</a>
            <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Another action</a>
            <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Something else here</a>

HTML

          <button type="button" class="btn btn-primary">Dropright</button>
          <button type="button" class="btn btn-primary dropdown-toggle px-3" data-toggle="dropdown" aria-haspopup="true"
            aria-expanded="false">

          </div>
        </div>

Dropleft variation

Trigger dropdown menus at the right of the elements by adding .dropleft to the parent element.

HTML



        <div class="btn-group dropleft">
          <button type="button" class="btn btn-primary dropdown-toggle px-3" data-toggle="dropdown" aria-haspopup="true"
            aria-expanded="false">
            <span class="sr-only">Toggle Dropdown</span>

            <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Another action</a>
            <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Something else here</a>
            <div class="dropdown-divider"></div>

          </div>
          <button type="button" class="btn btn-primary">Dropleft</button>
        </div>

Menu items

Historically dropdown menu contents had to be links, but that’s no longer the case with v4. Now you can optionally use button elements in your dropdowns instead of just <a>s.

HTML



        <div class="dropdown">
          <button class="btn btn-primary dropdown-toggle" type="button" id="dropdownMenuMenu" data-toggle="dropdown"
            aria-haspopup="true" aria-expanded="false">
            Dropdown
          </button>
          <div class="dropdown-menu" aria-labelledby="dropdownMenuMenu">
            <button class="dropdown-item" type="button">Action</button>
            <button class="dropdown-item" type="button">Another action</button>
            <button class="dropdown-item" type="button">Something else here</button>
          </div>
        </div>

Menu alignment

By default, a dropdown menu is automatically positioned 100% from the top and along the left side of its parent. Add .dropdown-menu-right to a .dropdown-menu to right align the dropdown menu.

Heads up!

Dropdowns are positioned thanks to Popper.js (except when they are contained in a navbar).

HTML



        <div class="btn-group">
          <button type="button" class="btn btn-primary dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown" aria-haspopup="true"
            aria-expanded="false">
            Right-aligned menu
          </button>
          <div class="dropdown-menu dropdown-menu-right">
            <button class="dropdown-item" type="button">Action</button>
            <button class="dropdown-item" type="button">Another action</button>
            <button class="dropdown-item" type="button">Something else here</button>
          </div>
        </div>

Menu headers

Add a header to label sections of actions in any dropdown menu.

HTML



        <div class="dropdown">
          <button class="btn btn-primary dropdown-toggle" type="button" id="dropdownMenu3" data-toggle="dropdown"
            aria-haspopup="true" aria-expanded="false">
            Dropdown
          </button>
          <div class="dropdown-menu" aria-labelledby="dropdownMenu3">
            <h6 class="dropdown-header">Dropdown header</h6>
            <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Action</a>
            <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Another action</a>
            <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Something else here</a>
          </div>
        </div>

Menu dividers

Separate groups of related menu items with a divider.

HTML



        <div class="dropdown">
          <button class="btn btn-primary dropdown-toggle" type="button" id="dropdownMenu4" data-toggle="dropdown"
            aria-haspopup="true" aria-expanded="false">
            Dropdown
          </button>
          <div class="dropdown-menu" aria-labelledby="dropdownMenu4">
            <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Action</a>
            <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Another action</a>
            <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Something else here</a>
            <div class="dropdown-divider"></div>
            <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Separated link</a>
          </div>
        </div>

Menu forms

Put a form within a dropdown menu, or make it into a dropdown menu, and use margin or padding utilities to give it the negative space you require.

HTML



        <div class="dropdown">
          <a class="btn btn-secondary dropdown-toggle" href="#" role="button" id="dropdownMenuLink" data-toggle="dropdown"
            aria-haspopup="true" aria-expanded="false">
            Dropdown link
          </a>

          <div class="dropdown-menu">

Active menu items

Add .active to items in the dropdown to style them as active.

HTML



        <div class="dropdown">
          <button class="btn btn-primary dropdown-toggle" type="button" id="dropdownMenu6" data-toggle="dropdown"
            aria-haspopup="true" aria-expanded="false">
            Dropdown
          </button>
          <div class="dropdown-menu" aria-labelledby="dropdownMenu6">
            <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Regular link</a>
            <a class="dropdown-item active" href="#">Active link</a>
            <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Another link</a>
          </div>
        </div>

Disabled menu items

Add .disabled to items in the dropdown to style them as disabled.

HTML



        <div class="dropdown">
          <button class="btn btn-primary dropdown-toggle" type="button" id="dropdownMenu5" data-toggle="dropdown"
            aria-haspopup="true" aria-expanded="false">
            Dropdown
          </button>
          <div class="dropdown-menu" aria-labelledby="dropdownMenu5">
            <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Regular link</a>
            <a class="dropdown-item disabled" href="#">Disabled link</a>
            <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Another link</a>
          </div>
        </div>

Usage

Via data attributes or JavaScript, the dropdown plugin toggles hidden content (dropdown menus) by toggling the .show class on the parent list item. The data-toggle="dropdown" attribute is relied on for closing dropdown menus at an application level, so it’s a good idea to always use it.

On touch-enabled devices, opening a dropdown adds empty ($.noop) mouseover handlers to the immediate children of the <body> element. This admittedly ugly hack is necessary to work around a quirk in iOS’ event delegation , which would otherwise prevent a tap anywhere outside of the dropdown from triggering the code that closes the dropdown. Once the dropdown is closed, these additional empty mouseover handlers are removed.

Via data attributes

Add data-toggle="dropdown" to a link or button to toggle a dropdown.

HTML


        <div class="dropdown">
          <button id="dLabel" type="button" data-toggle="dropdown" aria-haspopup="true" aria-expanded="false">
            Dropdown trigger
          </button>
          <div class="dropdown-menu" aria-labelledby="dLabel">
            ...
          </div>
        </div>

Via JavaScript

Call the dropdowns via JavaScript

data-toggle="dropdown" still required

Regardless of whether you call your dropdown via JavaScript or instead use the data-api, data-toggle="dropdown" is always required to be present on the dropdown’s trigger element.

JavaScript


        $('.dropdown-toggle').dropdown()

Options

Options can be passed via data attributes or JavaScript. For data attributes, append the option name to data-, as in data-offset="".

Name	Type	Default	Description
offset	number \| string \| function	0	Offset of the dropdown relative to its target. For more information refer to Popper.js's offset docs.
flip	boolean	true	Allow Dropdown to flip in case of an overlapping on the reference element. For more information refer to Popper.js's flip docs.
boundary	string \| element	'scrollParent'	Overflow constraint boundary of the dropdown menu. Accepts the values of `'viewport'`, `'window'`, `'scrollParent'`, or an HTMLElement reference (JavaScript only). For more information refer to Popper.js's preventOverflow docs.

Note when boundary is set to any value other than 'scrollParent', the style position: static is applied to the .dropdown container.

Methods

Method	Description
`$().dropdown('toggle')`	Toggles the dropdown menu of a given navbar or tabbed navigation.
`$().dropdown('update')`	Updates the position of an element’s dropdown.
`$().dropdown('dispose')`	Destroys an element’s dropdown.

Events

All dropdown events are fired at the .dropdown-menu’s parent element and have a relatedTarget property, whose value is the toggling anchor element.

Event	Description
`show.bs.dropdown`	This event fires immediately when the show instance method is called.
`shown.bs.dropdown`	This event is fired when the dropdown has been made visible to the user (will wait for CSS transitions, to complete).
`hide.bs.dropdown`	This event is fired immediately when the hide instance method has been called.
`hidden.bs.dropdown`	This event is fired when the dropdown has finished being hidden from the user (will wait for CSS transitions, to complete).

JavaScript


        $('#myDropdown').on('show.bs.dropdown', function () {
        // do something…
        })

    '-->' means 'required'

    All free and pro files require files from 'core' catalog

    'none' means 'this component doesn't require anything except core files'

    A file wrapped by `< >` means that this file make the base component prettier but it isn't necessary for the proper working

    All PRO components require 'pro/_variables.scss' file
