Modal not opening on href

Question

When I click a href=.... (privilege one), it should open modal, but it is not opening. Though the URL bar is changed to project/index.php#privilege_10

$(document).ready(function() {

  $(window.location.hash).modal('show');

});

Answer 1

Short answer: use "a" tag with correct href and data-toggle="modal"

<div class="modal-footer">
  <a class="btn btn-primary" data-toggle="modal" href="http://page.com">Yes</a>
  <a class="btn btn-secondary" data-bs-dismiss="modal">No</a>
</div>

Answer 2

With the help of Walks's comment adding data-toggle="modal" data-target="#privilege_10" attributes to a tag solves the issue.

$(document).ready(function() {

  $(window.location.hash).modal('show');

});

Answer 3

maybe you are missing the # in the selector:

$(`#${window.location.hash}`).modal('show');
