Unable to align branding logo, icon and hamburger menu button for mobile devices

Question

I am new to bootstrap so still trying to get my head around it.

What I would like to achieve is to have the branding logo aligned to the left and have the phone icon and hamburger nav icon to the right. It should look like this:

The code that I am 'incorrectly' using can be seen here:

As you can see, currently on smartphone view, they are all aligned to the left.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Answer 1

Ok I changed your html a bit. You can see the working code here: https://www.codeply.com/go/paFQ52qLUK

What you need to do is just to:

1. make sure that the row is taking up all the width of its parent
2. change the col-sms to col-auto
3. remove the ml-auto from the last col

Answer 2

No need of the row-col structure. Just simply use the template provided by bootstrap for creating a navbar, it should work fine, and because you have 2 buttons on the right keep them in a d-flex div.

Updated this section in the code below

<a class="navbar-brand" href="#" style="padding:0px;margin:0;">

Make one parent div inside that div put both the icon use display:flex for the parent div and in row div give width:100% this will work for mobile device too

<nav class="navbar navbar-expand-md navbar-light bg-light fixed-top" style="padding:0px;margin:0;">
       <div class="row no-gutters" style="width: 100%;">
          <div class="col-sm">
             <a class="navbar-brand" href="#" style="padding:0px;margin:0;">
             <img src="https://certiport.pearsonvue.com/getattachment/Certifications/ESB/Certification/Learn/NFTE_logo_purple_orange.png?lang=en-US">
             </a>
          </div>
          <div class="mobile-device" style="display:flex">
             <div class="col-sm ml-auto">
                <a style="color:#333;height:92px;width:50px; background-color:#F9D049;text-align:center;padding:26px 0 0 ;margin:0;line-height:1;" href="tel:000-000-000" class="d-block d-md-none">
