Adjusting the navbar breakpoint Bootstrap 3

[TarynMc]

I’m trying to increase the navbar breakpoint from 768px to 991px in Bootstrap 3, however when I make this change in my css it breaks the sub menus and for the life of me I can’t figure out what I’m doing wrong. Here is the media query:

@media (max-width: 991px) {
.navbar-header {
float: none;
}
.navbar-left,.navbar-right {
float: none !important;
}
.navbar-toggle {
display: block;
}
.navbar-collapse {
border-top: 1px solid transparent;
box-shadow: inset 0 1px 0 rgba(255,255,255,0.1);
}
.navbar-fixed-top {
top: 0;
border-width: 0 0 1px;
}
.navbar-collapse.collapse {
display: none!important;
}
.navbar-nav {
float: none!important;
margin-top: 7.5px;
}
.navbar-nav>li {
float: none;
}
.navbar-nav>li>a {
padding-top: 10px;
padding-bottom: 10px;
}
.collapse.in{
display:block !important;
}
}

Any help you could offer would be appreciated.

Hi, you will need to edit the breakpoint in all media queries that contain .navbar styles. From what I can see, all of them are the following (in v3.3.1):

@media (min-width: 991px) {
  .navbar-right .dropdown-menu {
    right: 0;
    left: auto;
  }
  .navbar-right .dropdown-menu-left {
    right: auto;
    left: 0;
  }
}

/* ... */

@media (min-width: 991px) {
  .navbar {
    border-radius: 4px;
  }
}
@media (min-width: 991px) {
  .navbar-header {
    float: left;
  }
}

/* ... */

@media (min-width: 991px) {
  .navbar-collapse {
    width: auto;
    border-top: 0;
    -webkit-box-shadow: none;
            box-shadow: none;
  }
  .navbar-collapse.collapse {
    display: block !important;
    height: auto !important;
    padding-bottom: 0;
    overflow: visible !important;
    visibility: visible !important;
  }
  .navbar-collapse.in {
    overflow-y: visible;
  }
  .navbar-fixed-top .navbar-collapse,
  .navbar-static-top .navbar-collapse,
  .navbar-fixed-bottom .navbar-collapse {
    padding-right: 0;
    padding-left: 0;
  }
}

/* ... */

@media (min-width: 991px) {
  .container > .navbar-header,
  .container-fluid > .navbar-header,
  .container > .navbar-collapse,
  .container-fluid > .navbar-collapse {
    margin-right: 0;
    margin-left: 0;
  }
}

/* ... */

@media (min-width: 991px) {
  .navbar-static-top {
    border-radius: 0;
  }
}

  .navbar-fixed-top,
  .navbar-fixed-bottom {
    border-radius: 0;

  .navbar-nav .open .dropdown-menu > li > a,

It’s doesn’t work!
Any other suggestion?
Example: http://www.aloud.es/en

[admin]

It’s tested and works with v3.3.1. You are probably doing something wrong. Make sure you are editing the exact same media queries as in the example code above.

Found a solution in: https://coderwall.com/p/wpjw4w/change-the-bootstrap-navbar-breakpoint

working (and proved) example: http://www.bootply.com/120604

[admin]

That solution probably works for older Bootstrap versions but the complete solution (without any glitches) for v3.3.1 is to edit all those media queries I have posted above.

[raphael]

Hi,
I tested you css code and works well.
But a light question, before using your solution, I changed the breakpoint in scss file ( $grid-float-breakpoint) and doesn’t work.
Nav collapse at the right breakpoint but in responsive navigation, dropdown menu have not a width of 100% and are hover others items:

Any idea, thanks in advance,
raf

Not, sure what exactly you have tried to achieve but @screen-sm is the correct variable to edit in Bootstrap’s SCSS.

But it might also be due to any custom CSS you’ve added. To debug it, I’d suggest starting with Bootstrap’s default CSS only and then carefully adding any custom CSS.
