Bootstrap 5 Input Groups


Input Groups

The .input-group class is a container to enhance an input by adding an icon, text or a button in front or behind the input field as a "help text".

To style the specified help text, use the .input-group-text class:

@
@example.com

Example

<form>
  <div class="input-group">
    <span class="input-group-text">@</span>
    <input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Username">
  </div>

  <div class="input-group">
    <input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Your Email">
    <span class="input-group-text">@example.com</span>
  </div>
</form>

Input Group with Dropdown Button

Add a dropdown button in the input group. Note that you don't need the .dropdown wrapper, as you normally would.

Example

<div class="input-group mt-3 mb-3">
  <button type="button" class="btn btn-primary dropdown-toggle" data-bs-toggle="dropdown">
    Dropdown button
  </button>
  <ul class="dropdown-menu">
    <li><a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Link 1</a></li>
    <li><a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Link 2</a></li>
    <li><a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Link 3</a></li>
  </ul>
  <input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Username">
</div>
