After attempting various solutions for days, the navbar was finally switched to a vertical layout following the addition of the Bootstrap Carousel, although functionality

After adding the Bootstrap carousel to my index.html, the navbar unexpectedly switched to a vertical layout.

I tried adjusting various elements such as font size and width, but it seems like the issue lies within the carousel itself. Whenever I include the bootstrap library with this line of code:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.3.1/css/bootstrap.min.css">
, the navbar automatically shifts to a vertical orientation. However, if I comment out this line, the navbar returns to its normal horizontal position but then the carousel stops functioning.

Is there a way to resolve this and restore the navbar to look consistent with other pages (i.e., positioned at the top horizontally)?

In regard to the navbar, I have a base.html file that contains the navbar code, which is extended on every page.

Answer №1

If you pay close attention, there seems to be a minor HTML syntax error in base.html. Currently, the bootstrap navigation is positioned outside the body tag.

Make sure to update the base.html file with the code below:

{# Include the tag library #}
{% load bootstrap3 %}

{# Load CSS and JavaScript #}
{% bootstrap_css %}
{% bootstrap_javascript %}

{# Display django.contrib.messages as Bootstrap alerts #}
{% bootstrap_messages %}
