Examples
Toggle contextual overlays for displaying lists of links and more with the Bootstrap dropdown plugin.
Single button dropdowns
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:
Variant
The best part is you can do this with any button variant, too:
Dropright variation
Trigger dropdown menus at the right of the elements by adding .dropright
to the parent element.
Dropup variation
Trigger dropdown menus above elements
by adding .dropup
to the parent
element.
Split button dropdowns
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.
Sizing
Button dropdowns work with buttons of all sizes, including default and split dropdown buttons.
Dropleft variation
Trigger dropdown menus at the right of the elements by adding .dropleft
to the parent element.
Menu alignment
Add .dropdown-menu-right
to a .dropdown-menu
to right
align the dropdown menu.
