Headers
Documentation and examples for Front's powerful, responsive navigation header, the navbar. Includes support for branding, navigation, and more, including support for our collapse plugin.
How to use?
Copy-paste the following <script> near the end of your pages under JS Front to enable them.
Copy-paste the init function under JS Plugins Init., before the closing </body> tag, to enable it.
Using unfold.js with header (eg. Topbar dropdowns, Search and Sidebars)
If you are planning to add things like, search, language dropdown, sidebar or anything similar, add the below given scripts.
Copy-paste the following <script> near the end of your pages under JS Front to enable them.
Copy-paste the init function under JS Plugins Init., before the closing </body> tag, to enable it.
Supported content
Navbars come with built-in support for a handful of sub-components. Choose from the following as needed:
With Bootstrap dropdown
Heads up!
If you still intend to use submenu within a dropdown menu, you will need to include the
hs.megamenulibrary.
Brand
The .navbar-brand can be applied to most elements, but an anchor works best as some elements might require utility classes or custom styles. For example, this example demonstrates a navbar-brand with SVG logo:
Here is another example with inline format:
Color schemes
Theming the navbar has never been easier. Apply the parent .header-white-nav-links-* class next to the .header class.
Transparent
Add a .header-bg-transparent class to a parent element (must come before .header-section class), also you can use .header-white-nav-links{-sm|-md|-lg|-xl} white color nav links class for clear displaying the links.
Transparent .header-bg-transparent{-sm|-md|-lg|-xl} classes are also available for responsive breakpoints.
And here's an example with border.
Placement
Use our placement-classes to place navbars in non-static positions. Choose from fixed to the top, fixed to the bottom, or stickied to the top (scrolls with the page until it reaches the top, then stays there). Fixed navbars use position: fixed, meaning they're pulled from the normal flow of the DOM and may require custom CSS (e.g., padding-top on the <body>) to prevent overlap with other elements.
Example page: Header default
Example page: Absolute top
Example page: Sticky top
Example page: Floating
Responsive behaviors
Placement classes can utilize .header-*{-sm|-md|-lg|-xl}. Learn more placement behaviors.
Navbars can utilize .navbar-toggler, .navbar-collapse, and .navbar-expand{-sm|-md|-lg|-xl} classes to change when their content collapses behind a button. In combination with other utilities, you can easily choose when to show or hide particular elements.
For navbars that never collapse, add the .navbar-expand class on the navbar. For navbars that always collapse, don't add any .navbar-expand class.
Methods
Options can be passed via data attributes or JavaScript. For data attributes, append the option name to data-hs-circles-options='{}'.
| Parameters | Description | Default value |
|---|---|---|
|
|
The distance after which the js-header-fix-moment class will be added to the initialized element, which initializes the animation specified in fixEffect |
0 |
|
|
If the header contains elements with the class header-section, then it adds the classes specified in
Otherwise, it searches for the given parameter in data-hs-header-options and adds classes to the header. These classes are added when the scroll value is greater than or equal to the value in fixMoment

null |
|
|
If the header contains elements with the class header-section, then removes the classes specified in the elements
Otherwise, it looks for this parameter in data-hs-header-options and removes the classes from the header. These classes are deleted when the scroll value is greater than or equal to the value in fixMoment

Determines with what effect the initialized element disappears. There are 2 options: slide, fade |
'slide' |

Placement classes
List of available classes and their descriptions.
| Class | Description |
|---|---|
|
|
Static type, behaves as with the rule position: static;. Its geometry is taken into account when rendering a page. |
|
|
Practically the same as static, but the geometry of this type of header is not taken into account when rendering the page (because of position: absolute;). This type of header is well suited for transparent/half-transparent header designs that are displayed on top of the slider/hero/etc. Its geometry is taken into account when rendering a page. |
|
|
This type of header works when we have the first section on the page that has a height: 100vh;, i.e. fullscreen. It is displayed as adhering to the top of the second section in the stream on the page. The geometry of this header is also excluded from the calculation of the positioning of all elements on the page. |
|
|
The same as header-abs-top, only the header is displayed as sticking to the bottom of the first section in the stream. |
|
|
It is displayed as sticking to the top of the screen always (position: fixed; top: 0;). The geometry of this header is also excluded from the calculation of the positioning of all elements on the page. |
|
|
It is displayed as always (position: fixed; bottom: 0;) adhered to the top of the screen. The geometry of this header is also excluded from the calculation of the positioning of all elements on the page. |
Behaviors
List of available classes and their descriptions.
| Class | Description |
|---|---|
|
|
Show/hide an item when scrolling to the user specified time. This moment is given in the form of the number of scrolled pixels, through the attribute data-header-fix-moment="". There are 3 available options for how to show/hide an element using the data-header-fix-effect="" attribute:
|
|
|
Changes the logo at the time specified by the user. This moment is given in the form of the number of scrolled pixels, through the attribute data-header-fix-moment="". The markup of the logo is important, and should look like this:
|
|
|
Changes the appearance of the sections at the time specified by the user. This moment is given in the form of the number of scrolled pixels, through the attribute data-header-fix-moment="". You can control the appearance of each section with 2 attributes:
!important CSS parameter.
For example: In this case, to change the section from gray to dark, we remove header-section-light bg-secondary (which by default is on this element) and add header-section-primary bg-primary.
|
|
|
Show/hide one of the header sections (preferably the very first) at the user specified time. This moment is specified as the number of scrolled pixels, through the attribute data-header-fix-moment="". For this, the section itself needs to be given the class .header-section-hidden. |
|
|
This class is auxiliary and is used to reset the previous behavior (with the previous permission, if the user has changed the window size) on a certain viewport. For example, if the user wants to open/show a section on -xs, -sm, but not higher. (Because Front alike Bootstrap is developed mobile first, a strategy in which we optimize code for mobile devices first and then scale up components as necessary using CSS media queries.), having set -sm it will work and on permissions above, in order to prevent it use this class.For example: here the behavior of toggle-section will work until the resolution is -md (that is, xs, sm), on viewport -md it will not work.
|
A certain behavior is tied to a specific position
Because of the complexity of the task itself with behaviors and positions, a certain behavior is tied to a specific position. That is, if you want the above
-lgto work show-hide, you need to specify 2 classes.For example:
