Expected behavior When a HTML element with data-mdb-toggle="modal" is clicked, it should open the target modal without having to add pe-none class to a child element.

Actual behavior I see many topics over the years that opening a modal throws the following error:

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'backdrop')

The workaround that is given is to add pe-none class to the child element. This workaround work, but this isnt just a problem for the element. It is basically for any child element that has data-mdb-toggle="modal" attribute.

Having to add a workaround pe-none to the child element is easy to forget.

Besides, I wonder why this is only an issue for MDBootstrap and not Bootstrap, assuming MDbootstrap is a fork of Bootstrap.

Is there any plan on fixing this?
