Topic: Sidebar problem

neptune priority asked 6 months ago

Hi,I am a beginner, I would like to use sidebar "4. MDB Navigation" from here :https://mdbootstrap.com/docs/standard/navigation/sidenav/

I did a manual installation, unzip downloaded package and open it in my code editor.I simply copied/pasted the code as requested in the correct place in index.html , Here is a screen print of the result on mobile : enter image description here

and desktop :

enter image description here

I don't understand.....As you can see everything is buggy, the sidebar does not appear, the logo is half hidden, elements are missing everywhere.

Here the html code :

Someone can help me ?

Thanks for trying to help me but unfortunately it's still bugged.

I just deleted everything and started from scratch. I unzip MDB5-STANDARD-UI-KIT-Pro-Advanced-6.4.2 then i copied/pasted code as requested.

It works as expected locally :

but once I upload the entire directory and files it bugs :

with error in the browser console :

ncaught TypeError: mdb.Lightbox is undefined

Uncaught TypeError: mdb.Sidenav is undefined

It makes no sense that it works locally and not online. I don't know what's going on with your script files but obviously they aren't loading online.

I paid for the pro version to have this sidebar, if I have to spend hours debugging it it's useless. I'm tired. What do you want me to do other than just copy/paste the code you provide?

We need more information to find out why this isn't working for you. Do you use any bundler or framework? Where and how do you upload the website? Do you use MDB GO?

Your code, when copied into our snippet, functions as expected. However, it appears that the MDB JS library is not imported correctly. Please check the browser console for any error messages, as they may provide valuable insights into the issue. To begin troubleshooting, make sure that the paths to imported files and the file names are correct.

Thank you for your response, I checked the files are loaded. However, I have only one error:

Uncaught TypeError: mdb.Sidenav is undefined index.html:294

Line 294 refer to :

const sidenavInstance = mdb.Sidenav.getInstance(sidenav);

Are you sure that you imported files for the pro package? Also, do you use some kind of bundler or framework?
