I replaced Bootstrap4 with BS5 on JA EGO. Any probable issues?

kabigold

Hi!
I used a very simple carousel written for bootstrap 5... but as the site sported T4 Ja Ego it didn't work as it should... furthermore I'd like to use BS5 for my articles layout.
So I replaced the folder mysite/plugins/system/t4/themes/base/vendors/bootstrap with the content of the folder plugins/system/t4/themes/base/vendors/bootstrap5 (shipped with T4 BS5 Blank).

I didn't spot any issues so far.
Do you think is it safe to stay with bs5 ?

thanks in advance.

HI kabigold

Yes, it could work fine with BS5, if there is any issue, just let us know.

kabigold

it seems that today I updated t4 system plugin, so it went back to bootstrap4...
I have overwrited again with bs5...
but something is wrong... on mobile and tablet I see the menu icon, yet nothing happens when I click on it.
maybe this is a different issue, although.

kabigold

ok.. I've restored the old bootstrap4 folder and stuff...
the menus are working again.
So.. overwriting bootstrap4 with bootstrap5 (at least in the "easy" way I did) does break some functionality.

kabigold Could you share the URL + super admin account of your site? and tell me the issue in more details, I will try to check and help you.

kabigold

ok. how do I send the account / password in private?
Anyway.. the problem is not showing anymore, as I put back bootstrap4bundle files.
before, in mobile phones view the visitor could see the three lines replacing the menu, but could not click in any way on that icon, so the menu was not showing.
I'm not using off canvas menu. And I didn't load the sample setup with all data, modules, settings... preset , so maybe I didn't replicate a correct default setup for ja_ego template.

kabigold Is that ok with Bs4 now?

kabigold

Yes, it works great!
I wish anyway you publish sooner or later a ja_ego version with BS5.

thanks again!
