Hello, i'm sure there is an easy and quick fix for this. But I really tried but I wasn't able to get this working. I'm new to React and mdbootstrap so that's probably the reason why.
I hope someone can help me with this wich i would really appreciate
Expected behavior Open the modal
Actual behavior Doesn't open the modal
Resources (screenshots, code snippets etc.) My item.js
    return (
    <Fragment>
        <div
            ref={ref}
            style={{ opacity: isDragging ? 0 : 1 }}
            className={"item"}
            onClick={onOpen}
        >
            <div className={"color-bar"} style={{ backgroundColor: status.color }}/>
            <p className={"item-title"}>{item.content}</p>
            <p className={"item-status"}>{item.icon}</p>
        </div>
        <Modal item={item} toggle={this.toggle} />
    </Fragment>
);
My Modal.js
export default function Modal(props){
const state = {
  modal: false
}
function toggle(){
  this.setState({
    modal: !this.state.modal
  });
}
return (
  <MDBContainer>
    <MDBModal isOpen={state.modal} toggle={toggle}>
      <MDBModalHeader toggle={toggle}>{props.item.title}</MDBModalHeader>
      <MDBModalBody>
      <h2>Description</h2>
      <p>{props.item.content}</p>
      </MDBModalBody>
      <MDBModalFooter>
        <MDBBtn color="secondary" onClick={toggle}>Close</MDBBtn>
        <MDBBtn color="primary">Save changes</MDBBtn>
      </MDBModalFooter>
    </MDBModal>
  </MDBContainer>
  );
}
