Bootstrap 4 navbar not collapsing on large screen

I am trying to implement a Navbar using Bootstrap 4. Currently, the Navbar correctly collapses when the viewport is shrunk to mobile size. However, when attempting to toggle menu, nothing happens. The jsFiddle example demonstrates this behavior. I have attached the HTML as well.

Steps I have taken:

  • Removing all custom CSS
  • Ensuring jQuery link is before Bootstrap JS file
  • Script tags in the header and the footer
  • Copy and paste exact examples from Bootstrap Docs (and I get the same behavior)
  • Ensuring that JS is being used in the Chrome browser
  • Validated HTML using WC3 validator
  • And of course, read various posts on SO about this issue but none lead to a resolution

You need to include Popper as per the Getting Started Docs.

Use these for your scripts instead.

<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.2.1.slim.min.js" integrity="sha384-KJ3o2DKtIkvYIK3UENzmM7KCkRr/rE9/Qpg6aAZGJwFDMVNA/GpGFF93hXpG5KkN" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/popper.js/1.12.3/umd/popper.min.js" integrity="sha384-vFJXuSJphROIrBnz7yo7oB41mKfc8JzQZiCq4NCceLEaO4IHwicKwpJf9c9IpFgh" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>

Advice: In future, always open the dev inspector console in your browser to find any error messages.

You can also change the bootstrap reference to the bundled version - bootstrap.bundle.min.js - which includes popper.js.

<script src="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.0.0-beta.2/js/bootstrap.bundle.min.js" integrity="sha384-alpBpkh1PFOepccYVYDB4do5UnbKysX5WZXm3XxPqe5iKTfUKjNkCk9SaVuEZflJ" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>

As @Anand Rockzz correctly points out, you still need to add jQuery before this reference.
