Solution 1

Easy. Change the default behavior from

<button ... data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#my-navbar-collapse">

to slide-collapse functionality which we are going to implement now

<button ... data-toggle="slide-collapse" data-target="#my-navbar-collapse">

Where the menu is contained within div that has the id my-navbar-collapse. Note that using id instead of class selector will improve the accessibility because bootstrap will append ARIA states (expanded/collapsed) to the menu automatically.

<div id="my-navbar-collapse" class="collapse navbar-collapse">
    <ul class="nav navbar-nav">
        ...
    </ul>
</div>

Class .collapse in bootstrap ensures the menu to be initially hidden.

The code:

And then paste the following Javascript somewhere in the footer:

// mobile menu slide from the left
$('[data-toggle="slide-collapse"]').on('click', function() {
    $navMenuCont = $($(this).data('target'));
    $navMenuCont.animate({'width':'toggle'}, 350);
});

And the following CSS properties:

#my-navbar-collapse {
    position: fixed;
    top: 0;
    left: 0;
    z-index: 1;
    width: 280px; /*example + never use min-width with this solution */
    height: 100%;
}

Some hints:

  • Good idea is also to make responsive query where menu width would be 100% for smartphones instead of always 280px. It works like a charm.
  • If you have horizontal menu for desktops, and slider only for smaller devices, you can easily take advantage of @grid-float-breakpoint and @grid-float-breakpoint-max Bootstrap LESS variables

Here is the full example

$(document).ready(function() {
  $('#slide-nav.navbar-inverse').after($('<div class="inverse" id="navbar-height-col"></div>'));
  $('#slide-nav.navbar-default').after($('<div id="navbar-height-col"></div>'));

  var slidewidth = '20%';
  var navbarneg = '-' + slidewidth;

  if ($(window).width() < 767) {
    $('#navbar-height-col').css("width", slidewidth);
    $('#navbar-height-col').css("left", navbarneg);
    $('#slide-nav #slidemenu').css("width", slidewidth);
    $('#slide-nav #slidemenu').css("left", navbarneg);
  }

  $("#slide-nav").on("click", '.navbar-toggle', function(e) {

    // slider is active
    var selected = $(this).hasClass('slide-active');

    // set slidemenu width
    $('#slidemenu').stop().animate({
      left: selected ? navbarneg : '0px'
    });

    // set navbar width
    $('#navbar-height-col').stop().animate({
      left: selected ? navbarneg : '0px'
    });

    // set content let
    $('#page-content').stop().animate({
      left: selected ? '0px' : slidewidth
    });

    // set navbar left
    $('.navbar-header').stop().animate({
      left: selected ? '0px' : slidewidth
    });

    $(this).toggleClass('slide-active', !selected);
    $('#slidemenu').toggleClass('slide-active');

    $('#page-content, .navbar, body, .navbar-header').toggleClass('slide-active');
  });

  var selected = '#slidemenu, #page-content, body, .navbar, .navbar-header';

Bootstrap 4 (update 2020)

IMO the simplest way is to override the Bootstrap collapse animation so that it transitions from left to right (width instead of height). Instead of toggling display:block when .collapse.show is used, the Navbar is always display:block which enables you to position as needed and use transitions from both collapsing directions...

Open menu: .collapse - .collapsing - .collapse.show
Close menu: .collapse.show - .collapsing.show - .collapse

    .navbar-collapse {
        position: absolute;
        top: 54px;
        left: -100%;
        width: 100%;
        transition: all 0.4s ease;
        display: block;
        opacity: 0.8;
    }
    .navbar-collapse.collapsing {
        height: auto !important;
        left: -100%;
        margin-left: 1px;
        transition: all 0.2s ease;
        opacity: 0.9;
    }
    .navbar-collapse.show {
        margin-left: 100%;
        transition: all 0.2s ease;
        opacity: 1;
    }

    Bootstrap supports toggling a navbar from the top. How can I slide it from the left when the screen-size is small?

    For example:

    preview

    In the screenshot provided above, when the screen is re-sized, the navbar is toggled and slides down from the top. I rather want that the navbar should slide from the left. How can I achieve this function in Bootstrap?

    Currently, as per code, the navbar slides from the top. Here is my code:

    <nav class="navbar navbar-site navbar-default" role="navigation">
    <div class="container">
        <div class="navbar-header">
            <button data-target=".navbar-collapse" data-toggle="collapse" class="navbar-toggle" type="button"> <span class="sr-only">Toggle navigation</span> <span class="icon-bar"></span> <span class="icon-bar"></span> <span class="icon-bar"></span> </button>
            <a href="{% url 'index' %} " class="navbar-brand logo logo-title">
            <span class="logo-icon"><i class="icon icon-search-1 ln-shadow-logo shape-0"></i> </span> <span>Companyname </span> </a> 
        </div>
        <div class="navbar-collapse collapse">
            <ul class="nav navbar-nav navbar-right">
                {% if user.is_authenticated %}
                    <li class="dropdown">
                        <a href="#" class="dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown"> <span>{{user.first_name}}</span> <i class="icon-user fa"></i> <i class=" icon-down-open-big fa"></i></a>
                        <ul class="dropdown-menu user-menu">
                            <li class="active"><a href="account-home.html"><i class="icon-home"></i> Personal Home </a></li>
                            <li><a href="statements.html"><i class=" icon-money "></i> Payment history </a></li>
                            <li><a href="{% url 'logout' %}"> <i class="glyphicon glyphicon-off"></i> Signout </a></li>
                        </ul>
                    </li>
                {% else %}
                    <li><a href="{% url 'login' %}">Login</a></li>
                    <li><a href="{% url 'signup' %}">Signup</a></li>
                {% endif %}
                <li class="postadd"><a class="btn btn-block btn-border btn-post btn-danger" href="{% url 'post_ad' %}">Post Free Add</a></li>
            </ul>
        </div>
    </div>
</nav>
