Bootstrap list groups are a flexible component which displays not only simple lists of elements but also complex custom content.

Note: See also Treeview component which allows showing items of the list group in the hierarchical order.

Basic example

The most basic list group is an unordered list with list items and the proper classes. You may build upon it with the options that follow, or with your own CSS as needed.

Cras justo odio
Dapibus ac facilisis in
Morbi leo risus
Porta ac consectetur ac
Vestibulum at eros

<ul class="list-group">
  <li class="list-group-item">Cras justo odio</li>
  <li class="list-group-item">Dapibus ac facilisis in</li>
  <li class="list-group-item">Morbi leo risus</li>
  <li class="list-group-item">Porta ac consectetur ac</li>
  <li class="list-group-item">Vestibulum at eros</li>
</ul>

Active items

Just add .active to a .list-group-item to indicate the current active selection.

  <li class="list-group-item">Porta ac consectetur ac</li>
  <li class="list-group-item">Vestibulum at eros</li>
</ul>

Disabled items

You can add .disabled to a .list-group-item to make it appear disabled. Note that some elements with .disabled will also require custom JavaScript to fully disable their click events (e.g., links).

<ul class="list-group">
  <li class="list-group-item disabled">Cras justo odio</li>
  <li class="list-group-item">Dapibus ac facilisis in</li>
  <li class="list-group-item">Morbi leo risus</li>
  <li class="list-group-item">Porta ac consectetur ac</li>
  <li class="list-group-item">Vestibulum at eros</li>
</ul>

Links and buttons

Use <a>s or <button>s to create actionable list group items with hover, disabled, and active states by adding .list-group-item-action. We separate these pseudo-classes to ensure that list groups made of non-interactive elements (like <li>s or <div>s) don’t provide a click or tap affordance.

Be sure to not use the standard .btn classes here.

  <a href="#!" class="list-group-item list-group-item-action disabled">Vestibulum at eros</a>
</div>

With <button>s, you can also make use of the disabled attribute instead of the .disabled class. Sadly, <a>s don’t support the disabled attribute.

  <button type="button" class="list-group-item list-group-item-action" disabled>Vestibulum at eros</button>
</div>

Flush

You can add .list-group-flush to remove some borders and rounded corners to render list group items edge-to-edge in a parent container (e.g., cards).

  <li class="list-group-item">Porta ac consectetur ac</li>
  <li class="list-group-item">Vestibulum at eros</li>
</ul>

Horizontal

Add .list-group-horizontal to change the layout of list group items from vertical to horizontal across all breakpoints. Alternatively, choose a responsive variant .list-group-horizontal-{sm|md|lg|xl} to make a list group horizontal starting at that breakpoint’s min-width. Currently horizontal list groups cannot be combined with flush list groups.

ProTip: Want equal-width list group items when horizontal? Add .flex-fill to each list group item.

Contextual classes

Use contextual classes to style list items with a stateful background and color.

Dapibus ac facilisis in
A simple primary list group item
A simple secondary list group item
A simple success list group item
A simple danger list group item
A simple warning list group item
A simple info list group item
A simple light list group item
A simple dark list group item

<ul class="list-group">
  <li class="list-group-item">Dapibus ac facilisis in</li>
  <li class="list-group-item list-group-item-primary">A simple primary list group item</li>
  <li class="list-group-item list-group-item-secondary">A simple secondary list group item</li>
  <li class="list-group-item list-group-item-success">A simple success list group item</li>
  <li class="list-group-item list-group-item-danger">A simple danger list group item</li>
  <li class="list-group-item list-group-item-warning">A simple warning list group item</li>
  <li class="list-group-item list-group-item-info">A simple info list group item</li>
  <li class="list-group-item list-group-item-light">A simple light list group item</li>
  <li class="list-group-item list-group-item-dark">A simple dark list group item</li>
</ul>

Contextual classes also work with .list-group-item-action. Note the addition of the hover styles here not present in the previous example. Also supported is the .active state; apply it to indicate an active selection on a contextual list group item.

Conveying meaning to assistive technologies

Using color to add meaning only provides a visual indication, which will not be conveyed to users of assistive technologies – such as screen readers. Ensure that information denoted by the color is either obvious from the content itself (e.g. the visible text), or is included through alternative means, such as additional text hidden with the .sr-only class.

With badges

Add badges to any list group item to show unread counts, activity, and more with the help of some utilities.

Cras justo odio 14

Donec id elit non mi porta.

Using data attributes

You can activate a list group navigation without writing any JavaScript by simply specifying data-toggle="list" on an element. Use these data attributes on .list-group-item.

Via JavaScript

Enable tabbable list items via JavaScript (each list item needs to be activated individually):

Show code Edit in sandbox

JS

$('#myList a').on('click', function (e) {
  e.preventDefault()
  $(this).tab('show')
})

You can activate an individual list item in several ways:

Show code Edit in sandbox

JS

$('#myList a[href="#profile"]').tab('show') // Select tab by name
$('#myList a:first-child').tab('show') // Select first tab
$('#myList a:last-child').tab('show') // Select last tab
$('#myList a:nth-child(3)').tab('show') // Select third tab

Fade effect

To make tab panels fade in, add .fade to each .tab-pane. The first tab pane must also have .show to make the initial content visible.

HTML

<div class="tab-content">
  <div class="tab-pane fade show active" id="home" role="tabpanel">...</div>
  <div class="tab-pane fade" id="profile" role="tabpanel">...</div>
  <div class="tab-pane fade" id="messages" role="tabpanel">...</div>
  <div class="tab-pane fade" id="settings" role="tabpanel">...</div>
</div>

Methods

$().tab

This activates a list item element and content container. Tab should have either a data-target or an href targeting a container node in the DOM.

HTML

<div class="list-group" id="myList" role="tablist">
  <a class="list-group-item list-group-item-action active" data-toggle="list" href="#home" role="tab">Home</a>
  <a class="list-group-item list-group-item-action" data-toggle="list" href="#profile" role="tab">Profile</a>
  <a class="list-group-item list-group-item-action" data-toggle="list" href="#messages" role="tab">Messages</a>
  <a class="list-group-item list-group-item-action" data-toggle="list" href="#settings" role="tab">Settings</a>
</div>

<div class="tab-content">
  <div class="tab-pane active" id="home" role="tabpanel">...</div>
  <div class="tab-pane" id="profile" role="tabpanel">...</div>
  <div class="tab-pane" id="messages" role="tabpanel">...</div>
  <div class="tab-pane" id="settings" role="tabpanel">...</div>
</div>

$(function () {
  $('#myList a:last-child').tab('show')
})

.tab(‘show’)

This selects the given list item and shows its associated pane. Any other list item that was previously selected becomes unselected and its associated pane is hidden. Returns to the caller before the tab pane has actually been shown (for example, before the shown.bs.tab event occurs).

Events

When showing a new tab, the events fire in the following order:

hide.bs.tab (on the current active tab)
show.bs.tab (on the to-be-shown tab)
hidden.bs.tab (on the previously active tab, the same one as for the hide.bs.tab event)
shown.bs.tab (on the newly-active just-shown tab, the same one as for the show.bs.tab event)

If no tab was already active, the hide.bs.tab and hidden.bs.tab events will not be fired.

Event type	Description
show.bs.tab	This event fires on tab show, but before the new tab has been shown. Use `event.target` and `event.relatedTarget` to target the active tab and the previously active tab (if available) respectively.
shown.bs.tab	This event fires on tab show after a tab has been shown. Use `event.target` and `event.relatedTarget` to target the active tab and the previously active tab (if available) respectively.
hide.bs.tab	This event fires when a new tab is to be shown (and thus the previously active tab is to be hidden). Use `event.target` and `event.relatedTarget` to target the currently active tab and the new soon-to-be-active tab, respectively.
hidden.bs.tab	This event fires after a new tab is shown (and thus the previously active tab is hidden). Use `event.target` and `event.relatedTarget` to target the previously active tab and the new active tab, respectively.
