CSS Bootstrap 4 Basics (Retired) Responsive Layouts with the Bootstrap Grid Column Ordering and Offsetting

Bootstrap 4 Beta has been released and I think they removed the "pull" and "push", is that correct?

If that's the case, the "Important notes" under the "Teacher's notes" should be edited until the course is re-shot again.

That is correct, per the release notes: https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/releases

  • Updated the grid to drop push, pull, and offset in favor of new .order- modifiers and margin utilities.

Thank you for answering, Kevin.

Yes, also the offsets were removed. They explained that they are using the .mr-auto class from flexbox v4. Until the "Important notes" are not amended or the course re-shot, I used to put the signup column to the right by using "ml-auto". So, the full div class should come like "<div class="col-md-6 col-xl-5 ml-auto">". https://getbootstrap.com/docs/4.0/layout/grid/#offsetting-columns

They also removed the .hidden classes: https://getbootstrap.com/docs/4.0/migration/#utilities

So the part of the video describing how to hide the image for extra small viewports, "hidden-xs-down" is also outdated. For this part, I couldn't figure out a solution, so a temporarily help is very appreciated. I was playing with the display property but I didn't find the "xs" breakpoint and the "d-sm-none" value does exactly the opposite of our goal, displays the image for the small viewport but hides it for bigger ones. Any suggestion?

I got it to work with:

<img class="mb-3 img-fluid rounded d-none d-sm-block" src="img/portpan.jpg">

after a few sessions of trial and error.

You bet Ivo, I checked this morning and this is on the radar of the treehouse staff to include some sort of update to this series, not sure if that's a new video or two, or notes, but they're aware of it.

In the meantime, I think the only way right now with the beta that I saw to hide an element on XS only is to have a lovely selector like <div class="d-none d-sm-block d-md-block d-lg-block d-xl-block">My Div</div>

Or, write your own media query and class, with is probably more along the lines of what I'd do in this case. Just write your own hidden-xs-down class or whatever you want it to be called.
