bootstrap toggle doesn't work after ajax load

i'm using ajax load to get some content on my page. I'm working with bootstrap 3 and bootstrap toggle. when the content is loaded the bootstrap 3 content works fine (you can clearly see the panel panel-primary). But the bootstrap toggle content doesn't get loaded (you can just see some checkboxes). Does annyone know how to get this working? Or should i look out to some other toggle switches? Ifso which ones?

EDIT: i haven't tested out event binding yet because i cant get the bootstrap toggle css to work on the ajax loaded code. Event binding has nothing to do with the css right?

  1. Scripts used by the main html code (the one with ajax load)
  2. Main html code
  3. code being loaded into a div by the main html code

Make sure that you are loading both the bootstrap-toggle js file and css file properly. Specifically check that they are in the location your links point to, or even use the cdn versions listed below:

<link href="https://gitcdn.github.io/bootstrap-toggle/2.2.0/css/bootstrap-toggle.min.css" rel="stylesheet">
<script src="https://gitcdn.github.io/bootstrap-toggle/2.2.0/js/bootstrap-toggle.min.js"></script>

Your paths must be wrong or you forgot to include the js file altogether, and you should see a warning about this in your console because otherwise the code works fine.

Regarding dynamically loaded content.

The first elements work because, after the html first loads, bootstrap-toggle.min.js looks for any elements that have the attribute data-toggle="toggle" and calls .bootstrapToggle() on them applying the plugin. This only happens when the page loads.

If you later add more toggles, you'll need to initialize them yourself via .bootstrapToggle(). Iv'e updated the example below to simulate adding toggles dynamically and explain the approach I would take to do that. See the comments in the code for more details.

      // timeout to simulate ajax
setTimeout(function(){ 
   // add an element dynamically,
  $('.table').append('<tr><td>Testswitch0</td><td><label><input type="checkbox" data-toggle="toggle" data-onstyle="success" id="S2" data-size="mini"></label></td></tr>');
    
    // now that we have dynamically loaded elements
    // we need to initialize any toggles that were added
    // you shouldn't re-initialize any toggles already present
    // but we also do want to have to figure out how to find the ones we added
    // instead, we'll destroy all toggles and recreate all new ones
    $("[data-toggle='toggle']").bootstrapToggle('destroy')                 
    $("[data-toggle='toggle']").bootstrapToggle();
  
}, 2000)

  </div>
  <div class="panel-body">

      <tr>
        <th>Location</th>

The best solution that worked:

1- Load Jquery before bootstrap. Here Jquery first, Ajax second and bootstrap in the end.

    <script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.1.1.min.js"></script>
    <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.2.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
    <script src="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.3.1/js/bootstrap.min.js" integrity="sha384-JjSmVgyd0p3pXB1rRibZUAYoIIy6OrQ6VrjIEaFf/nJGzIxFDsf4x0xIM+B07jRM" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
    <script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/gitbrent/[email protected]/js/bootstrap4-toggle.min.js"></script>

2- Call bootstrapToggle on ajax complete:

    $(document).ajaxComplete(function() {
        $('input[type=checkbox][data-toggle^=toggle]').bootstrapToggle();
    });

3- Note: Call your custom script jquery at the end
