Alerts are available for any length of text, as well as an optional dismiss button. For proper styling, use one of the eight required contextual classes.

Link Color

Use the .alert-link utility class to quickly provide matching colored links within any alert.

Dismissing

Using the alert JavaScript plugin, it’s possible to dismiss any alert inline. Here’s how:

  • Be sure you’ve loaded the alert plugin, or the compiled Bootstrap JavaScript.

  • If you’re building our JavaScript from source, it requires util.js. The compiled version includes this.

  • Add a dismiss button and the .alert-dismissible class, which adds extra padding to the right of the alert and positions the .close button.

  • On the dismiss button, add the data-dismiss="alert" attribute, which triggers the JavaScript functionality. Be sure to use the <button> element with it for proper behavior across all devices.

  • To animate alerts when dismissing them, be sure to add the .fade and .show classes.
