List Group

Bootstrap 5 List Group component

Basic example

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

  • An item
  • A second item
  • A third item
  • A fourth item
  • And a fifth one

Small

If you need a more compact list, add a class .list-group-small which will reduce the padding of the items in the list.

  • An item
  • A second item
  • A third item
  • A fourth item
  • And a fifth one

Active items

Add .active to a .list-group-item to indicate the current active selection. You also need to add extra padding with spacing classes to keep the text from sticking to the edge of the list and .border-0 to remove borders between items.

  • An active item
  • A second item
  • A third item
  • A fourth item
  • And a fifth one

Disabled items

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).

  • An disabled item
  • A second item
  • A third item
  • A fourth item
  • And a fifth one

No borders

Add .border-0 to the items to remove all the borders.

  • An item
  • A second item
  • A third item
  • A fourth item
  • And a fifth one

Numbered

Add the .list-group-numbered modifier class (and optionally use an <ol> element) to opt into numbered list group items. Numbers are generated via CSS (as opposed to a <ol>s default browser styling) for better placement inside list group items and to allow for better customization.

Numbers are generated by counter-reset on the <ol>, and then styled and placed with a ::before psuedo-element on the <li> with counter-increment and content.

  1. A list item
  2. A list item
  3. A list item

These work great with custom content as well.

  1. Subheading
    Content for list item
    14
  2. Subheading
    Content for list item
    14
  3. Subheading
    Content for list item
    14

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|xxl} to make a list group horizontal starting at that breakpoint’s min-width. Currently horizontal list groups cannot be combined with flush or light list groups.

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

  • An item
  • A second item
  • A third item
  • An item
  • A second item
  • A third item
  • An item
  • A second item
  • A third item
  • An item
  • A second item
  • A third item
  • An item
  • A second item
  • A third item
  • An item
  • A second item
  • A third item

Contextual classes

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

  • A simple default list group item
  • 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

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.

A simple default list group item 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 simple dark 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 .visually-hidden class.

Badges

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

  • A list item 14
  • A second list item 2
  • A third list item 1

Custom content

Add nearly any HTML within, even for linked list groups like the one below, with the help of flexbox utilities.

Checkboxes

Place Bootstrap’s checkboxes and radios within list group items and customize as needed. You can use them without <label>s, but please remember to include an aria-label attribute and value for accessibility.

  • First checkbox
  • Second checkbox
  • Third checkbox
  • Fourth checkbox
  • Fifth checkbox

And if you want <label>s as the .list-group-item for large hit areas, you can do that, too.

    • JavaScript behavior

    Use the tab JavaScript plugin to extend our list group to create tabbable panes of local content.

    Some placeholder content in a paragraph relating to "Home". And some more content, used here just to pad out and fill this tab panel. In production, you would obviously have more real content here. And not just text. It could be anything, really. Text, images, forms.
    Some placeholder content in a paragraph relating to "Profile". And some more content, used here just to pad out and fill this tab panel. In production, you would obviously have more real content here. And not just text. It could be anything, really. Text, images, forms.

    Fade effect

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