Icon Side Navbar for Bootstrap 3

Responsive sidebar navigation using default BS3 navbar markup

Sponsored by Terracoding

Installation

Sass

Download navbar-fixed-side.scss

Include it after Bootstrap in your Sass file:

@import 'bootstrap';
@import 'navbar-fixed-side';

CSS

Download the minified navbar-fixed-side.css

Include it after Bootstrap in your HTML:

<link href="css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet" />
<link href="css/navbar-fixed-side.css" rel="stylesheet" />

Bower

bower install bootstrap-side-navbar


Usage

Position the navbar using the standard Bootstrap grid system in a .container-fluid.

This gives you control over how wide it is and when it should collapse.

Then just use .navbar-fixed-side as you would usually use .navbar-fixed-top.

Examples

Left-hand side

<div class="container-fluid">
  <div class="row">
    <div class="col-sm-3 col-lg-2">
      <nav class="navbar navbar-default navbar-fixed-side">
        <!-- normal collapsible navbar markup -->
      </nav>
    </div>
    <div class="col-sm-9 col-lg-10">
      <!-- your page content -->
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

Right-hand side

Use Bootstrap's column ordering to maintain source order

<div class="container-fluid">
  <div class="row">
    <div class="col-sm-3 col-lg-2 col-sm-push-9 col-lg-push-10">
      <nav class="navbar navbar-default navbar-fixed-side">
        <!-- normal collapsable navbar markup -->
      </nav>
    </div>
    <div class="col-sm-9 col-lg-10 col-sm-pull-3 col-lg-pull-2">
      <!-- your page content -->
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

Options

The side navbar supports the inverse style for navbars. Replace .navbar-default with .navbar-inverse as normal.
