Bootstrap close modal not working

Question

I have two button here that are being used to close the modal. The first is the close icon and the other one is cancel button, both use data-dismiss to close the modal. However, both of them are not working. I am using the same code for another modal and there they are working fine. Any guesses?

<div id="timeSelectModal{{entry.position - 1}}" style="display: none" class="modal">
    <div class="modal-dialog">
        <div id="timeSelectModalContent" class="modal-content">
            <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-hidden="true">×</button>
            <label>
                <input id="checkbox8pm{{entry.position - 1}}" type="checkbox" value="first_checkbox">
                <label class="checkbox-label">Thursday, 08:00 pm.</label>
            </label>
            <br>
            <label>
                <input id="checkbox9pm{{entry.position - 1}}" type="checkbox" value="second_checkbox">
                <label class="checkbox-label">Thursday, 09:30 pm.</label>
            </label>
            <div id="time-modal-footer" class="modal-footer">
                <button type="button" class="btn btn-default" data-dismiss="modal">Cancel</button>
                <button type="button" class="btn btn-success" id="timeSaveButton{{entry.position - 1}}" v-on:click="setTime(entry.position - 1)">Save</button>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

Solution 1

remove the "fade" class.

<div class="modal fade" id="myModal" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="myModalLabel" aria-hidden="true">

change to

<div class="modal" id="myModal" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="myModalLabel" aria-hidden="true">

Fade is an effect, if you remove fade, your modal will not have fade effect. The several problem which cause this issue is not call modal with right method.

Wrong method : $("#myModal").show();

Right method : $("#myModal").modal('show');

I was stuck on this for a while also. I have no idea why but when I used data-bs-dismiss in stead of data-dismiss in the class for the close button it worked for me.

Please see below full code for close button.

<button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary" data-bs-dismiss="modal">Close</button>

Very old topic but it still shows up first for people searching this problem, likely caused by them making the same simple mistake I did which was failing to ensure that the modal div was outside of the main body div from which it was launched. To use the Material Kit as an example, you should double check that the target "#myModal" div is outside the closing div tag for your main container.

<div class="main main-raised">
    <div class="container">
    <!--                 modals -->
        <div class="row" id="modals">
            <div class="col-md-6">
                <button class="btn btn-primary btn-raised btn-round" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#myModal">
                    Classic modal
                </button>
            </div>

        </div>
    <!--                 end modals              -->
    </div>
</div>

<!-- Classic Modal -->
<div class="modal fade" id="myModal" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="myModalLabel" aria-hidden="true">
    <div class="modal-dialog">
        <div class="modal-content">
            <div class="modal-header">
                <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-hidden="true">
                    <i class="material-icons">clear</i>
                </button>
                <h4 class="modal-title">Modal title</h4>
            </div>
            <div class="modal-body">
                <p>Hey hey</p>
            </div>
            <div class="modal-footer">
                <button type="button" class="btn btn-simple">Nice Button</button>
                <button type="button" class="btn btn-danger btn-simple" data-dismiss="modal">Close</button>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>
<!--  End Modal -->

First check you have included bootstrap.js file in your html correctly.

You can try this code and replace the button tag for closing modal by -

<a href="#" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-label="close">&times;</a>

If still doesn't work.. Let me know.!

You can add an on-click event on close button in jQuery. Like this-

$("#yourModal").modal("hide");

What helped in mine case, I've replaced data-dismiss with data-bs-dismiss, now it works!
