Basic Alert

Alerts are available for any length of text, as well as an optional dismiss button. For proper styling, use one of the five required contextual classes (e.g., .alert-success).

This is a primary alert—check it out!
This is a success alert—check it out!
This is a info alert—check it out!
This is a warning alert—check it out!
This is a danger alert—check it out!

Link Color

Use the .alert-link utility class to quickly provide matching colored links within any alert.

Additional content

Alerts can also contain additional HTML elements like headings, paragraphs and dividers.

Dismissing

Using the alert JavaScript plugin, it’s possible to dismiss any alert inline. Here’s how:

  • Be sure you’ve loaded the alert plugin, or the compiled Bootstrap JavaScript.
  • Add a close button and the .alert-dismissible class, which adds extra padding to the right of the alert and positions the close button.
  • On the close button, add the data-bs-dismiss="alert" attribute, which triggers the JavaScript functionality. Be sure to use the <button> element with it for proper behavior across all devices.
  • To animate alerts when dismissing them, be sure to add the .fade and .show classes.
