New to Bootstrap 4, Columns are not acting as they should?

I have limited experience with Bootstrap 4 but am not sure why my page is acting like this. I have these 2 rows, one of which I want for the title to be above the container with white background. I am trying to make 2 columns, one for a sidebar and one for the content on the right however when I use columns they only stack which can be seen here - http://michaelfroseth.com/clients/notebook-html/subpage.html

I have no idea why? They seem to operate fine outside of the row, but am I not supposed to be using a new row? Any documentation or point in the right direction would be much appreciated!

You should use row inside the container, not as a wrapper.

<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1, shrink-to-fit=no">
<script defer src="https://use.fontawesome.com/releases/v5.0.2/js/all.js"></script>

<link rel="stylesheet" href="./css/custom.css?v=2">
<title>Pam's Notebook | V1.0</title>
</head>
<body>
<div class="container mt-5">
  <div class="row">
    <div class="col-md-12">
    <h1 class="display-5"><span style="color:#fff;">Pam's Notebook</span> <span style="color:#CCAC23;">V1.0</span></h1>
    </div>  
  </div>
    <div class="login-container col-md-12">
    <div class="row">
      <div class="col-md-4">SIDEBAR</div>
      <div class="col-md-8">CONTENT</div>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>
