Unfold (Dropdown and others)

Toggle contextual overlays for displaying lists of links and more with the Space unfold plugin.

How to use?

Wrap the unfold's toggle (your button or link) and the unfold menu within an element that declares position: relative;. Unfolds can be triggered from <a> or <button> elements to better fit your potential needs.

Copy-paste the following <script> near the end of your pages under JS Space to enable it.

            
              <script src="../../assets/js/components/hs.unfold.js"></script>
            
          

Copy-paste the init function under JS Plugins Init., before the closing </body> tag, to enable it.

            
              <script>
                $(document).on('ready', function () {
                  // initialization of unfold component
                  $.HSCore.components.HSUnfold.init($('[data-unfold-target]'));
                });
              </script>
            
          

Basic example

            
              <div class="position-relative">
                <a id="dropdownBasicExampleInvoker" class="u-unfold-wrapper" href="javascript:;" role="button"
                   aria-controls="dropdownBasicExample"
                   aria-haspopup="true"
                   aria-expanded="false"
                   data-unfold-event="click"
                   data-unfold-target="#dropdownBasicExample"
                   data-unfold-type="css-animation"
                   data-unfold-duration="300"
                   data-unfold-delay="300"
                   data-unfold-hide-on-scroll="true"
                   data-unfold-animation-in="slideInUp"
                   data-unfold-animation-out="fadeOut">
                  Basic example
                  <span class="fa fa-angle-down u-unfold__icon-pointer"></span>
                </a>

                <div id="dropdownBasicExample" class="u-unfold list-group list-group-flush list-group-borderless mt-2" aria-labelledby="dropdownBasicExampleInvoker">
                  <a class="list-group-item list-group-item-action" href="#">One</a>
                  <a class="list-group-item list-group-item-action" href="#">Two</a>
                  <a class="list-group-item list-group-item-action" href="#">Three</a>
                </div>
              </div>
            
          

Single button

Any single .btn can be turned into a dropdown toggle with some markup changes. Here's how you can put them to work with either <button> elements:

            
              <div class="position-relative">
                <button id="dropdownSingleButtonInvoker" class="btn btn-secondary" type="button"
                        aria-controls="dropdownSingleButton"
                        aria-haspopup="true"
                        aria-expanded="false"
                        data-unfold-event="click"
                        data-unfold-target="#dropdownSingleButton"
                        data-unfold-type="css-animation"
                        data-unfold-duration="300"
                        data-unfold-delay="300"
                        data-unfold-hide-on-scroll="true"
                        data-unfold-animation-in="slideInUp"
                        data-unfold-animation-out="fadeOut">
                  Basic example
                  <span class="fa fa-angle-down u-unfold__icon-pointer"></span>
                </button>

                <div id="dropdownSingleButton" class="u-unfold list-group list-group-flush list-group-borderless mt-2" aria-labelledby="dropdownSingleButtonInvoker">
                  <a class="list-group-item list-group-item-action" href="#">One</a>
                  <a class="list-group-item list-group-item-action" href="#">Two</a>
                  <a class="list-group-item list-group-item-action" href="#">Three</a>
                </div>
              </div>
            
          

And with <a> elements:

            
              <div class="position-relative">
                <a id="dropdownWithHrefInvoker" class="btn btn-secondary" href="javascript:;" role="button"
                   aria-controls="dropdownWithHref"
                   aria-haspopup="true"
                   aria-expanded="false"
                   data-unfold-event="click"
                   data-unfold-target="#dropdownWithHref"
                   data-unfold-type="css-animation"
                   data-unfold-duration="300"
                   data-unfold-delay="300"
                   data-unfold-hide-on-scroll="true"
                   data-unfold-animation-in="slideInUp"
                   data-unfold-animation-out="fadeOut">
                  Basic example
                  <span class="fa fa-angle-down u-unfold__icon-pointer"></span>
                </a>

                <div id="dropdownWithHref" class="u-unfold list-group list-group-flush list-group-borderless mt-2" aria-labelledby="dropdownWithHrefInvoker">
                  <a class="list-group-item list-group-item-action" href="#">One</a>
                  <a class="list-group-item list-group-item-action" href="#">Two</a>
                  <a class="list-group-item list-group-item-action" href="#">Three</a>
                </div>
              </div>
            
          

And with hover effect:

            
              <div class="position-relative">
                <a id="dropdownOnHoverInvoker" class="btn btn-secondary" href="javascript:;" role="button"
                   aria-controls="dropdownOnHover"
                   aria-haspopup="true"
                   aria-expanded="false"
                   data-unfold-event="hover"
                   data-unfold-target="#dropdownOnHover"
                   data-unfold-type="css-animation"
                   data-unfold-duration="300"
                   data-unfold-delay="300"
                   data-unfold-hide-on-scroll="true"
                   data-unfold-animation-in="slideInUp"
                   data-unfold-animation-out="fadeOut">
                  On Hover
                  <span class="fa fa-angle-down u-unfold__icon-pointer"></span>
                </a>

                <div id="dropdownOnHover" class="u-unfold list-group list-group-flush list-group-borderless mt-2" aria-labelledby="dropdownOnHoverInvoker">
                  <a class="list-group-item list-group-item-action" href="#">One</a>
                  <a class="list-group-item list-group-item-action" href="#">Two</a>
                  <a class="list-group-item list-group-item-action" href="#">Three</a>
                </div>
              </div>
            
          

The best part is you can do this with any button variant, too:

            
              <div class="position-relative">
                <button id="dropdownPrimaryInvoker" class="btn btn-primary" type="button"
                        aria-controls="dropdownPrimary"
                        aria-haspopup="true"
                        aria-expanded="false"
                        data-unfold-event="click"
                        data-unfold-target="#dropdownPrimary"
                        data-unfold-type="css-animation"
                        data-unfold-duration="300"
                        data-unfold-delay="300"
                        data-unfold-hide-on-scroll="true"
                        data-unfold-animation-in="slideInUp"
                        data-unfold-animation-out="fadeOut">
                  Primary
                  <span class="fa fa-angle-down u-unfold__icon-pointer"></span>
                </button>

                <div id="dropdownPrimary" class="u-unfold list-group list-group-flush list-group-borderless mt-2" aria-labelledby="dropdownPrimaryInvoker">
                  <a class="list-group-item list-group-item-action" href="#">One</a>
                  <a class="list-group-item list-group-item-action" href="#">Two</a>
                  <a class="list-group-item list-group-item-action" href="#">Three</a>
                </div>
              </div>
