Modal components

Below is a static modal example (meaning its position and display have been overridden). Included are the modal header, modal body (required for padding), and modal footer (optional). We ask that you include modal headers with dismiss actions whenever possible, or provide another explicit dismiss action.

        
            
          import React, { useState } from 'react';
          import { MDBBtn,
            MDBModal,
            MDBModalDialog,
            MDBModalContent,
            MDBModalHeader,
            MDBModalTitle,
            MDBModalBody,
            MDBModalFooter, 
          } from 'mdb-react-ui-kit';
          
          export default function App() {
            const [basicModal, setBasicModal] = useState(false);

            const toggleShow = () => setBasicModal(!basicModal);

            return (
              <>
                <MDBBtn onClick={toggleShow}>LAUNCH DEMO MODAL</MDBBtn>
                <MDBModal show={basicModal} setShow={setBasicModal} tabIndex='-1'>
                  <MDBModalDialog>
                    <MDBModalContent>
                      <MDBModalHeader>
                        <MDBModalTitle>Modal title</MDBModalTitle>
                        <MDBBtn className='btn-close' color='none' onClick={toggleShow}></MDBBtn>
                      </MDBModalHeader>
                      <MDBModalBody>Modal body text goes here.</MDBModalBody>
    
                      <MDBModalFooter>
                        <MDBBtn color='secondary' onClick={toggleShow}>
                          Close
                        </MDBBtn>
                        <MDBBtn>Save changes</MDBBtn>
                      </MDBModalFooter>
                    </MDBModalContent>
                  </MDBModalDialog>
                </MDBModal>
              </>
            );
          }
          
        
    

Position

To change the position of the modal add one of the following props to the MDBModalDialog

Top right: side + position="top-right"

Top left: side + position="top-left"

Bottom right: side + position="bottom-right"

Bottom left: side + position="bottom-left"

Note: If you want to change the direction of modal animation, add the prop{' '} animationDirection, top, bottom or left to the{' '} Modal component.

        
            
            import React, { useState } from 'react';
            import { MDBBtn,
              MDBModal,
              MDBModalDialog,
              MDBModalContent,
              MDBModalHeader,
              MDBModalTitle,
              MDBModalBody,
              MDBModalFooter, 
            } from 'mdb-react-ui-kit';
            
            export default function App() {
              const [topRightModal, setTopRightModal] = useState(false);
  
              const toggleShow = () => setTopRightModal(!topRightModal);
  
              return (
                <>
                  <MDBBtn onClick={toggleShow}>Top right</MDBBtn>
                  
                  <MDBModal
                    animationDirection='right'
                    show={topRightModal}
                    tabIndex='-1'
                    setShow={setTopRightModal}
                  >
                    <MDBModalDialog position='top-right' side>

                          <MDBModalTitle>Product in the cart</MDBModalTitle>
                          <MDBBtn
                            color='none'
                            className='btn-close btn-close-white'
                            onClick={toggleShow}
                          ></MDBBtn>
                        </MDBModalHeader>
                        <MDBModalBody>
                          <div className='row'>
                            <div className='col-3 text-center'>
                              <i className='fas fa-shopping-cart fa-4x text-info'></i>
                            </div>

                            <div className='col-9'>
                              <p>Do you need more time to make a purchase decision?</p>
                              <p>No pressure, your product will be waiting for you in the cart.</p>
                            </div>
                          </div>
                        </MDBModalBody>
                        <MDBModalFooter>
                          <MDBBtn color='info'>Go to the cart</MDBBtn>
                          <MDBBtn outline color='info' onClick={toggleShow}>
                            Close
                          </MDBBtn>
                        </MDBModalFooter>
                      </MDBModalContent>
                    </MDBModalDialog>
                  </MDBModal>
                </>
              );
            }
            
        
    

Frame

To make the modal "frame-like" add frame prop to the MDBModalDialog element. You also need to specify the direction by adding position="bottom" or position="top" to the MDBModalDialog.

        
            
            import React, { useState } from 'react';
            import { MDBBtn,
              MDBModal,
              MDBModalDialog,
              MDBModalContent,
              MDBModalHeader,
              MDBModalTitle,
              MDBModalBody,
              MDBModalFooter, 
            } from 'mdb-react-ui-kit';
            
            export default function App() {
              const [bottomModal, setBottomModal] = useState(false);
  
              const toggleShow = () => setBottomModal(!bottomModal);
  
              return (
                <>
                  <MDBBtn onClick={toggleShow}>Launch frame modal</MDBBtn>

                  <MDBModal
                    animationDirection='bottom'
                    show={bottomModal}
                    tabIndex='-1'
                    setShow={setBottomModal}
                  >
                    <MDBModalDialog position='bottom' frame>
                      <MDBModalContent>
                        <MDBModalBody className='py-1'>
                          <div className='d-flex justify-content-center align-items-center my-3'>
                            <p className='mb-0'>We use cookies to improve your website experience</p>
                            <MDBBtn color='success' size='sm' className='ms-2' onClick={toggleShow}>
                              Ok, thanks
                            </MDBBtn>
                            <MDBBtn size='sm' className='ms-2'>
                              Learn more
                            </MDBBtn>
                          </div>
                        </MDBModalBody>
                      </MDBModalContent>
                    </MDBModalDialog>
                  </MDBModal>
                </>
              );
            }
          
        
    

Static backdrop

When backdrop is set to static, the modal will not close when clicking outside it. Click the button below to try it.

        
            
          import React, { useState } from 'react';
          import { MDBBtn,
            MDBModal,
            MDBModalDialog,
            MDBModalContent,
            MDBModalHeader,
            MDBModalTitle,
            MDBModalBody,
            MDBModalFooter, 
          } from 'mdb-react-ui-kit';
          
          export default function App() {
            const [staticModal, setStaticModal] = useState(false);

            const toggleShow = () => setStaticModal(!staticModal);

            return (
              <>
                <MDBBtn onClick={toggleShow}>Launch static backdrop modal</MDBBtn>

                <MDBModal staticBackdrop tabIndex='-1' show={staticModal} setShow={setStaticModal}>
                  <MDBModalDialog>
                    <MDBModalContent>
                      <MDBModalHeader>
                        <MDBModalTitle>Modal title</MDBModalTitle>
                        <MDBBtn className='btn-close' color='none' onClick={toggleShow}></MDBBtn>
                      </MDBModalHeader>
                      <MDBModalBody>...</MDBModalBody>
                      <MDBModalFooter>
                        <MDBBtn color='secondary' onClick={toggleShow}>
                          Close
                        </MDBBtn>
                        <MDBBtn>Understood</MDBBtn>
                      </MDBModalFooter>
                    </MDBModalContent>
                  </MDBModalDialog>
                </MDBModal>
              </>
            );
          }
          
        
    

Scrolling long content

When modals become too long for the user’s viewport or device, they scroll independent of the page itself. Try the demo below to see what we mean.

You can also create a scrollable modal that allows scroll the modal body by adding scrollable to MDBModalDialog.

        
            
          import React, { useState } from 'react';
          import { MDBBtn,
            MDBModal,
            MDBModalDialog,
            MDBModalContent,
            MDBModalHeader,
            MDBModalTitle,
            MDBModalBody,
            MDBModalFooter, 
          } from 'mdb-react-ui-kit';
          
          export default function App() {
            const [scrollableModal, setScrollableModal] = useState(false);

            return (
              <>
                <MDBBtn onClick={() => setScrollableModal(!scrollableModal)}>LAUNCH DEMO MODAL</MDBBtn>

                <MDBModal show={scrollableModal} setShow={setScrollableModal} tabIndex='-1'>
                  <MDBModalDialog scrollable>
                    <MDBModalContent>
                      <MDBModalHeader>
                        <MDBModalTitle>Modal title</MDBModalTitle>
                        <MDBBtn
                          className='btn-close'
                          color='none'
                          onClick={() => setScrollableModal(!scrollableModal)}
                        ></MDBBtn>
                      </MDBModalHeader>
                      <MDBModalBody>

Tooltips and popovers

Tooltips and popovers can be placed within modals as needed. When modals are closed, any tooltips and popovers within are also automatically dismissed.

Using the grid

Utilize the Bootstrap grid system within a modal by nesting .container-fluid within the .modal-body. Then, use the normal grid system classes as you would anywhere else.

        
            
          import React, { useState } from 'react';
          import { MDBBtn,
            MDBModal,
            MDBModalDialog,
            MDBModalContent,
            MDBModalHeader,
            MDBModalTitle,
            MDBModalBody,
            MDBModalFooter, 
          } from 'mdb-react-ui-kit';
          
          export default function App() {
            const [gridModal, setGridModal] = useState(false);

            const toggleShow = () => setGridModal(!gridModal);

            return (
              <>
                <MDBBtn onClick={toggleShow}>Launch demo modal</MDBBtn>

                <MDBModal tabIndex='-1' show={gridModal} setShow={setGridModal}>
                  <MDBModalDialog>
                    <MDBModalContent>

            );
          }
          
        
    

Varying modal content

Have a bunch of buttons that all trigger the same modal with slightly different contents? Use event.relatedTarget and HTML data-mdb-* attributes to vary the contents of the modal depending on which button was clicked.

Below is a live demo followed by example HTML and JavaScript. For more information, read the modal API/events doc for details on relatedTarget.

        
            
          import React, { useState } from 'react';

            MDBModalContent,
            MDBModalHeader,
            MDBModalTitle,
            MDBModalBody,
            MDBModalFooter, 
            MDBInput,
          } from 'mdb-react-ui-kit';
          
          export default function App() {
            const [varyingState, setVaryingState] = useState('');
            const [varyingModal, setVaryingModal] = useState(false);
            const [varyingRecipient, setVaryingRecipient] = useState('');
            const [varyingMessage, setVaryingMessage] = useState('');

            const onChangeRecipient = (event: any) => {
              setVaryingRecipient(event.target.value);
            };
          
            const onChangeMessage = (event: any) => {
              setVaryingMessage(event.target.value);
            };

            return (

Toggle between modals

Toggle between multiple modals with some clever placement of the data-mdb-target and data-mdb-toggle attributes. For example, you could toggle a password reset modal from within an already open sign in modal. Please note multiple modals cannot be open at the same time—this method simply toggles between two separate modals.

Below is a live demo followed by example HTML and JavaScript. For more information, read the modal API/events doc for details on relatedTarget.

Optional sizes

Modals have three optional sizes, available via modifier props to be placed on a MDBModalDialog. These sizes kick in at certain breakpoints to avoid horizontal scrollbars on narrower viewports.

Size Prop Modal max-width
Small size="sm" 300px
Default None 500px
Large size="lg" 800px
Extra large size="xl" 1140px
        
            
          import React, { useState } from 'react';
          import { MDBBtn,
            MDBModal,
            MDBModalDialog,
            MDBModalContent,
            MDBModalHeader,
            MDBModalTitle,
            MDBModalBody
          } from 'mdb-react-ui-kit';
          
          export default function App() {
            const [optSmModal, setOptSmModal] = useState(false);

            const toggleShow = () => setOptSmModal(!optSmModal);

            return (
              <>
                <MDBBtn onClick={toggleShow}>Small modal</MDBBtn>
                <MDBModal show={optSmModal} tabIndex='-1' setShow={setOptSmModal}>
                  <MDBModalDialog size='sm'>
                    <MDBModalContent>
                      <MDBModalHeader>
                        <MDBModalTitle>Small modal</MDBModalTitle>
                        <MDBBtn className='btn-close' color='none' onClick={toggleShow}></MDBBtn>

            );
          }
          
        
    

Fullscreen Modal

Another override is the option to pop up a modal that covers the user viewport, available via modifier props that are placed on a MDBModalDialog.

Prop Availability
size="fullscreen" Always
size="fullscreen-sm-down" Below 576px
size="fullscreen-md-down" Below 768px
size="fullscreen-lg-down" Below 992px
size="fullscreen-xl-down" Below 1200px
size="fullscreen-xxl-down" Below 1400px

                <MDBBtn onClick={toggleShow}>Full screen below xl</MDBBtn>
                <MDBModal tabIndex='-1' show={fullscreenXlModal} setShow={setFullscreenXlModal}>
                  <MDBModalDialog size='fullscreen-xl-down'>
