Navbar Dropdown menu right on bootstrap 4

I have a problem with dropdown menu right on Bootstrap 4.

Here my code: 

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<link href="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.7.0/css/font-awesome.min.css" rel="stylesheet"/>
<script src="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.1.0/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/popper.js/1.14.0/umd/popper.min.js"></script>
<link href="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.1.0/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet"/>
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.3.1.slim.min.js"></script>


<nav class="navbar fixed-top navbar-dark bg-primary py-1">
    <a class="navbar-brand" href="#">
        BRAND
    </a>
    <span class="navbar-text py-0">
      <ul class="navbar-nav mr-auto">
          <li class="nav-item dropdown">
              <a class="nav-item nav-link dropdown-toggle" id="userMenu" data-toggle="dropdown" aria-haspopup="true" aria-expanded="false">
                  <img src="<?= $objUser->photo ?>" width="40px" height="40px" class="rounded-circle">
                  <span class="caret"></span>
              </a>
              <div class="dropdown-menu dropdown-menu-right" aria-labelledby="userMenu">
                Hi Name
                <a class="dropdown-item" id="logout_btn" href="#">Logout</a>
              </div>
          </li>
      </ul>
    </span>
</nav>

When I click on link on right, navbar expands instead to popup the dropdown menu. And the link is not readable.

Do you have any solutions?

The problem here is that the .navbar .dropdown-menu has position: static;, coming from navbar.css.

When overriding the CSS with a more specific selector: .navbar .dropdown-menu.dropdown-menu. and changing the position from static to absolute it works as expected.

For the color of the 'Logout' functionality, you could do something like this to override the default styling:

.navbar-nav .dropdown-item.dropdown-item,
.navbar-nav .dropdown-item.dropdown-item:hover {
  color: blue;
}


.navbar-nav .dropdown-menu.dropdown-menu {
  position: absolute;
}

.navbar-nav .dropdown-item.dropdown-item,
.navbar-nav .dropdown-item.dropdown-item:hover {
  color: blue;
}

You are missing some dropdown classes i think, the following code should work

see here https://jsbin.com/jayukijavi/edit?html,output

<nav class="navbar navbar-expand-lg navbar-dark bg-primary">
  <a class="navbar-brand" href="#">BRAND</a>
  <button class="navbar-toggler" type="button" data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#navbarNavDropdown" aria-controls="navbarNavDropdown" aria-expanded="false" aria-label="Toggle navigation">
    <span class="navbar-toggler-icon"></span>
  </button>
  <div class="collapse navbar-collapse" id="navbarNavDropdown">
    <ul class="navbar-nav ml-auto">

      <li class="nav-item dropdown">
        <a class="nav-link dropdown-toggle" href="#" id="navbarDropdownMenuLink" data-toggle="dropdown" aria-haspopup="true" aria-expanded="false">
          Dropdown link
        </a>
        <div class="dropdown-menu" aria-labelledby="navbarDropdownMenuLink">
          <a class="nav-item nav-link dropdown-toggle" id="userMenu" data-toggle="dropdown" aria-haspopup="true" aria-expanded="false">
             <img src="<?= $objUser->photo ?>" width="40px" height="40px" class="rounded-circle">
             <span class="caret"></span>
          </a>
          <a class="dropdown-item" id="logout_btn" href="#">Logout</a>
        </div>
      </li>
    </ul>
  </div>
</nav>
