An unofficial Bootstrap plugin that makes Bootstrap dropdown menus open on hover instead of only on click, with a configurable close delay to avoid accidental dismissal. It works via data attributes or JavaScript and coexists with Bootstrap's default click behavior for mobile support.
Use cases
- make bootstrap navbar dropdowns open on hover
- add hover dropdown menus to my bootstrap site
- prevent dropdown closing when mouse moves over a 1px gap
- configure delay before hover dropdown closes
- support both hover on desktop and click on mobile for dropdowns
When to choose
- you use Bootstrap 3 and want hover-activated dropdowns with a better UX
- you want a drop-in plugin that works via data attributes without custom JS
- you need hover and click dropdown behavior to coexist for desktop and mobile
When to avoid
- you use Bootstrap 4 or 5, which has no official submenu support and different plugin APIs
- you need actively maintained software with recent updates
- you are not using jQuery or legacy Bootstrap in your project
