Menu
Goal:
I am aiming to place the nav bar items to this position using padding or margin marked in red:
Problem
I realized if I apply some padding right or margin right, the collapsed (Mobile screen) li items are applied with margin right or padding-right.
Here is a ridiculous example of high padding applied:
Goal:
This is the desired output:
And finally, properly centered collapsed li items in responsive mode:
Code:
* {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
box-sizing: border-box;
}
html {
font-size: 20px;
}
.navbar {
background-color: black !important;
}
.navbar .navbar-collapse li{
text-align: center;
margin-bottom: 20px;
}
.navbar-nav > li{
padding-right:30px;
}
.navbar li a {
text-decoration: none;
text-transform: uppercase;
font-size: 70%;
color: #000;
}
.navbar ul li a {
position: relative;
z-index: 1;
padding: 15px;

Add these media queries to the end of your css file and you will get the result you want. I added margin-right: 100px; at your discretion. You yourself can specify the number of pixels you need. And also added padding-right: 0; to remove indentation for mobile devices to better center the menu.
@media (min-width: 992px) {
.navbar-expand-lg .navbar-nav {
margin-right: 100px;
}
}
@media (max-width: 992px) {
.navbar-nav > li {
padding-right: 0;
}
}
* {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
box-sizing: border-box;
}
html {
font-size: 20px;
}
.navbar {
background-color: black !important;
}
.navbar .navbar-collapse li{
text-align: center;
margin-bottom: 20px;
}
.navbar-nav > li{
padding-right:30px;
}
.navbar li a {
text-decoration: none;
text-transform: uppercase;
font-size: 70%;
color: #000;
}
.navbar ul li a {
position: relative;
z-index: 1;
padding: 15px;
}
@media (min-width: 992px) {
.navbar-expand-lg .navbar-nav {
margin-right: 100px;
}
}
@media (max-width: 992px) {
.navbar-nav > li {
padding-right: 0;
}
