Offcanvas

Build hidden sidebars into your project for navigation, shopping carts, and more with a few classes and our JavaScript plugin.

Basic Example #

Use the buttons below to show and hide an offcanvas element via JavaScript that toggles the .show class on an element with the .offcanvas class.

  • .offcanvas hides content (default)
  • .offcanvas.show shows content

You can use a link with the href attribute, or a button with the data-bs-target attribute. In both cases, the data-bs-toggle="offcanvas" is required.

Example
Offcanvas
Some text as placeholder. In real life you can have the elements you have chosen. Like, text, images, lists, etc.
<div class="row g-3">
    <div class="col-auto">
        <a
            class="btn btn-primary"
            data-bs-toggle="offcanvas"
            href="#offcanvasExample"
            role="button"
            aria-controls="offcanvasExample"
            >Link with href</a
        >
    </div>
    <div class="col-auto">
        <button
            class="btn btn-primary"
            type="button"
            data-bs-toggle="offcanvas"
            data-bs-target="#offcanvasExample"
            aria-controls="offcanvasExample"
        >
            Button with data-bs-target
        </button>
    </div>
</div>
<div
    class="offcanvas offcanvas-start"
    tabindex="-1"
    id="offcanvasExample"
    aria-labelledby="offcanvasExampleLabel"
>
    <div class="offcanvas-header">
        <h5 class="offcanvas-title" id="offcanvasExampleLabel">Offcanvas</h5>
        <button
            type="button"
            class="sa-close sa-close--modal"
            data-bs-dismiss="offcanvas"
            aria-label="Close"
        ></button>
    </div>
    <div class="offcanvas-body">
        <div>
            Some text as placeholder. In real life you can have the elements you have
            chosen. Like, text, images, lists, etc.
        </div>
        <div class="dropdown mt-4">
            <button
                class="btn btn-secondary dropdown-toggle"
                type="button"
                id="dropdown-menu-button-inside-offcanvas"
                data-bs-toggle="dropdown"
            >
                Dropdown button
            </button>
            <ul
                class="dropdown-menu"
                aria-labelledby="dropdown-menu-button-inside-offcanvas"
            >
                <li><a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Action</a></li>
                <li><a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Another action</a></li>
                <li><a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Something else here</a></li>
            </ul>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

Placement #

There's no default placement for offcanvas components, so you must add one of the modifier classes below;

  • .offcanvas-start places offcanvas on the left of the viewport (shown above)
  • .offcanvas-end places offcanvas on the right of the viewport
  • .offcanvas-top places offcanvas on the top of the viewport
  • .offcanvas-bottom places offcanvas on the bottom of the viewport

Try the top, right, and bottom examples out below.

Example
Offcanvas top
...
Offcanvas end
...
Offcanvas bottom
...
Offcanvas start
...
