Table editable

Bootstrap table editable

Note: This documentation is for an older version of Bootstrap (v.4). A newer version is available for Bootstrap 5. We recommend migrating to the latest version of our product - Material Design for Bootstrap 5.
Go to docs v.5

With an Editable Bootstrap Table, you can add and remove rows, plus and change text and information within cells. In-place editing on your website - based on JavaScript - is now easier and quicker.

Note: If you need more advanced functionality, have a look at our Table editor plugin.

Map of dependencies of SCSS files in MDBootstrap:


    Legend:

    '-->' means 'required'

    All free and pro files require files from 'core' catalog

    'none' means 'this component doesn't require anything except core files'

    A file wrapped by `< >` means that this file make the base component prettier but it isn't necessary for the proper working

    All PRO components require 'pro/_variables.scss' file
