# SmartMenus Bootstrap Addon (Navbar fixed bottom)

Creating zero config advanced Bootstrap 3 navbars with SmartMenus jQuery and the SmartMenus jQuery Bootstrap Addon.

You basically just need to include the JS/CSS files on your Bootstrap 3 powered pages and everything should work automatically including full support for whatever Bootstrap theme you already use. And, of course, you still have the full power and flexibility of SmartMenus jQuery at hand should you need to tweak or customize anything.

## Source Code

### CSS

In addition to Bootstrap's CSS just include the SmartMenus jQuery Bootstrap Addon CSS. It's just static CSS code you don't need to edit at all (and probably shouldn't try to).

### JavaScript

In addition to Bootstrap's JavaScript just include SmartMenus jQuery and the SmartMenus jQuery Bootstrap Addon. The default options used in `jquery.smartmenus.bootstrap.js` should work well for all. However, you can, of course, tweak them if you like.

    <!-- Bootstrap core JavaScript
    ================================================== -->
    <!-- Placed at the end of the document so the pages load faster -->
    <script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.11.3.min.js"></script>
    <script src="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.6/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>

    <!-- SmartMenus jQuery plugin -->
    <script type="text/javascript" src="../jquery.smartmenus.js"></script>

    <!-- SmartMenus jQuery Bootstrap Addon -->
    <script type="text/javascript" src="../addons/bootstrap/jquery.smartmenus.bootstrap.js"></script>

## Quick customization

### `data-*` attributes

The following `data-*` attributes can be set to any `ul.navbar-nav`:

- `data-sm-options` - set any custom options for the SmartMenus jQuery plugin (check the docs for details).
- `data-sm-skip` - this will tell the script to skip this navbar and not apply any SmartMenus features to it so it will behave like a regular Bootstrap navbar.
- `data-sm-skip-collapsible-behavior` - this will tell the script to not apply SmartMenus' specific behavior to this navbar in collapsible mode (mobile view). Bootstrap's behavior for navbars in collapsible mode is to use the whole area of the parent items just as a toggle button for their sub menus and thus it's impossible to set a link to the parent items that can be followed on click/tap. SmartMenus' behavior is to add a separate dedicated +/- sub menus toggle button to parent items and thus allows the link of the parent items to be activated on the second click/tap (the first click/tap displays the sub menu if it's not visible).

### API

The following methods are available:

- `jQuery.SmartMenus.Bootstrap.init()` - reinit the addon. Useful if you add any navbars dynamically on your page and need to init them (all navbars are normally initialized ondomready).
