List group

List groups are a flexible and powerful component for displaying not only simple lists of elements, but complex ones with custom content.

Contents

Basic example

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

  • Cras justo odio
  • Dapibus ac facilisis in
  • Morbi leo risus
  • Porta ac consectetur ac
  • Vestibulum at eros
<ul class="list-group">
  <li class="list-group-item">Cras justo odio</li>
  <li class="list-group-item">Dapibus ac facilisis in</li>
  <li class="list-group-item">Morbi leo risus</li>
  <li class="list-group-item">Porta ac consectetur ac</li>
  <li class="list-group-item">Vestibulum at eros</li>
</ul>

Tags

Add tags to any list group item to show unread counts, activity, etc.

  • 14 Cras justo odio
  • 2 Dapibus ac facilisis in
  • 1 Morbi leo risus 
<ul class="list-group">
  <li class="list-group-item">
    <span class="tag tag-default tag-pill float-xs-right">14</span>
    Cras justo odio
  </li>
  <li class="list-group-item">
    <span class="tag tag-default tag-pill float-xs-right">2</span>
    Dapibus ac facilisis in
  </li>
  <li class="list-group-item">
    <span class="tag tag-default tag-pill float-xs-right">1</span>
    Morbi leo risus
  </li>
</ul>

Disabled items

Add .disabled to a .list-group-item to gray it out to appear disabled.

Cras justo odio Dapibus ac facilisis in Morbi leo risus Porta ac consectetur ac Vestibulum at eros 
<div class="list-group">
  <a href="#" class="list-group-item disabled">
    Cras justo odio
  </a>
  <a href="#" class="list-group-item">Dapibus ac facilisis in</a>
  <a href="#" class="list-group-item">Morbi leo risus</a>
  <a href="#" class="list-group-item">Porta ac consectetur ac</a>
  <a href="#" class="list-group-item">Vestibulum at eros</a>
</div>

Anchors and buttons

Use anchors or buttons to create actionable list group items with hover, disabled, and active states by adding .list-group-item-action. This separate class contains a few overrides to add compatibility for <a>s and <button>s, as well as the hover and focus states.

Be sure to not use the standard .btn classes here.

Cras justo odio Dapibus ac facilisis in Morbi leo risus Porta ac consectetur ac Vestibulum at eros 
<div class="list-group">
  <a href="#" class="list-group-item active">
    Cras justo odio
  </a>
  <a href="#" class="list-group-item list-group-item-action">Dapibus ac facilisis in</a>
  <a href="#" class="list-group-item list-group-item-action">Morbi leo risus</a>
  <a href="#" class="list-group-item list-group-item-action">Porta ac consectetur ac</a>
  <a href="#" class="list-group-item list-group-item-action disabled">Vestibulum at eros</a>
</div>
<div class="list-group">
  <button type="button" class="list-group-item list-group-item-action active">
    Cras justo odio
  </button>
  <button type="button" class="list-group-item list-group-item-action">Dapibus ac facilisis in</button>
  <button type="button" class="list-group-item list-group-item-action">Morbi leo risus</button>
  <button type="button" class="list-group-item list-group-item-action">Porta ac consectetur ac</button>
  <button type="button" class="list-group-item list-group-item-action disabled">Vestibulum at eros</button>
</div>

Contextual classes

Use contextual classes to style list items, default or linked. Also includes .active state.

Dapibus ac facilisis in Cras sit amet nibh libero Porta ac consectetur ac Vestibulum at eros 
<div class="list-group">
  <a href="#" class="list-group-item list-group-item-action list-group-item-success">Dapibus ac facilisis in</a>
  <a href="#" class="list-group-item list-group-item-action list-group-item-info">Cras sit amet nibh libero</a>
  <a href="#" class="list-group-item list-group-item-action list-group-item-warning">Porta ac consectetur ac</a>
  <a href="#" class="list-group-item list-group-item-action list-group-item-danger">Vestibulum at eros</a>
</div>

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 .sr-only class.

Custom content

Add nearly any HTML within, even for linked list groups like the one below.

List group item heading

Donec id elit non mi porta gravida at eget metus. Maecenas sed diam eget risus varius blandit.
List group item heading

Donec id elit non mi porta gravida at eget metus. Maecenas sed diam eget risus varius blandit.
List group item heading

Donec id elit non mi porta gravida at eget metus. Maecenas sed diam eget risus varius blandit.

 
<div class="list-group">
  <a href="#" class="list-group-item list-group-item-action active">
    <h5 class="list-group-item-heading">List group item heading</h5>
    <p class="list-group-item-text">Donec id elit non mi porta gravida at eget metus. Maecenas sed diam eget risus varius blandit.</p>
  </a>
  <a href="#" class="list-group-item list-group-item-action">
    <h5 class="list-group-item-heading">List group item heading</h5>
    <p class="list-group-item-text">Donec id elit non mi porta gravida at eget metus. Maecenas sed diam eget risus varius blandit.</p>
  </a>
  <a href="#" class="list-group-item list-group-item-action">
    <h5 class="list-group-item-heading">List group item heading</h5>
    <p class="list-group-item-text">Donec id elit non mi porta gravida at eget metus. Maecenas sed diam eget risus varius blandit.</p>
  </a>
</div>
