Currently, I am utilizing Ruby on Rails 7 and Bootstrap 5. I encountered an issue with my hamburger menu functionality - it opens successfully but fails to close. Strangely, all other dropdowns work perfectly fine. Below is the snippet of the problematic code:
<nav class="navbar navbar-expand-lg bg-dark border-bottom border-body" data-bs-theme="dark">
<div class="container-fluid">
<a class="navbar-brand" href="/" style="color: white">ContactPoints.io</a>
<button class="navbar-toggler" type="button" data-bs-toggle="collapse" data-bs-target="#navbarTogglerDemo02" aria-controls="navbarTogglerDemo02" aria-expanded="false" aria-label="Toggle navigation">
<span class="navbar-toggler-icon"></span>
</button>
<div class="collapse navbar-collapse" id="navbarTogglerDemo02">
<ul class="navbar-nav ms-auto mb-2 mb-lg-0">
<% if current_user %>
<%= render "layouts/logged_in_nav" %>
<% else %>
<%= render "layouts/logged_out_nav" %>
<% end %>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
</nav>
Here are the CDNs used:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Contact Points</title>
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width,initial-scale=1">
<%= csrf_meta_tags %>
<%= csp_meta_tag %>
<%= favicon_link_tag 'favicon.ico' %>
<%= stylesheet_link_tag "application", "data-turbo-track": "reload" %>
<%= javascript_include_tag "application", "data-turbo-track": "reload", defer: true %>
...
While all other Bootstrap features function correctly, only the hamburger menu presents a problem. Even after substituting with verified code from GetBootstrap, the issue persists. This indicates the issue lies elsewhere, possibly within the configuration or setup.
UPDATE: Following suggestions, I performed tests by selectively commenting out various CDNs. Surprisingly, I discovered a specific combination that resolves the menu problem:
<!-- Include Bootstrap modal library -->
<!-- <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/bootstrap/dist/js/bootstrap.bundle.min.js"></script> -->
<%# javascript_include_tag "application", "data-turbo-track": "reload", defer: true %>
It appears that both the JavaScript tag and Bootstrap modal library interfere with the hamburger menu functionality. By commenting out both, the issue is resolved. However, the exact cause remains obscure.
Here is the code snippet from my application.js within javascript/controllers:
...Is it common to have two application.js files while using hotwire? Feedback suggests that it is normal and that the existing setup seems appropriate.
Removing the conflicting line from application.js did not resolve the issue. The investigation into the root problem continues.
