Fixed footer in Bootstrap

Question

I'm trying out Bootstrap and I was wondering, how I can fix the footer on the bottom without having it disappear from the page if the content is scrolled?

Answer 1

To get a footer that sticks to the bottom of your viewport, give it a fixed position like this:

footer {     position: fixed;     height: 100px;     bottom: 0;     width: 100%; } 

Bootstrap includes this CSS in the Navbar > Placement section with the class fixed-bottom. Just add this class to your footer element:

<footer class="fixed-bottom">

Answer 2

Add this:

<div class="footer navbar-fixed-bottom">

EDIT: class navbar-fixed-bottom has been changed to fixed-bottom as of Bootstrap v4-alpha.6.
