Topic: How to toggle dropdown after click on icon using mdb-angular-ui-kit?
julianpoemp asked 4 years ago
I'm currently trying to create a dropdown with only one icon using mdb-angular-ui-kit (I'm using 1.0.0-beta6). When I click on the icon nothing happens. If I click next to the icon, the menu appears.
How can I fix this? You can find a test project here, I couldn't install the toolkit on a stackblitz project.
app.component.html
<div mdbDropdown class="dropdown">
<button
class="btn btn-primary dropdown-toggle"
type="button"
id="dropdownMenuButton"
aria-expanded="false"
mdbDropdownToggle
>
<i class="fa fa-cog"></i>
</button>
<ul mdbDropdownMenu class="dropdown-menu" aria-labelledby="dropdownMenuButton">
<li><a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Action</a></li>
<li><a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Another action</a></li>
<li><a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Something else here</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
app.component.ts
import {Component, ViewChild} from '@angular/core';
import {MdbDropdownDirective} from 'mdb-angular-ui-kit/dropdown';
@Component({
selector: 'app-root',
templateUrl: './app.component.html',
styleUrls: ['./app.component.scss']
})
export class AppComponent {
title = 'mdbTest';
}
styles.css

Thank you for reporting this problem, we will need to fix that on our end.
As a workaround for now, please try to use this code:
<div mdbDropdown #dropdown class="dropdown">
<button
class="btn btn-primary dropdown-toggle"
type="button"
id="dropdownMenuButton"
aria-expanded="false"
mdbDropdownToggle
>
<i class="fa fa-cog" (click)="dropdown.toggle(); $event.stopPropagation()"></i>
</button>
<ul mdbDropdownMenu class="dropdown-menu" aria-labelledby="dropdownMenuButton">
<li><a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Action</a></li>
<li><a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Another action</a></li>
<li><a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Something else here</a></li>
</ul>
</div>

thanks! In the meantime I switched to the bs4 version because I need an stable version of mdb angular. I'll try the bs5 version in the future when it's not in beta anymore.

I tested your workaround in my test application. It works!

Can you make sure that the
mdb-angular-ui-kit
dependency was installed correctly? We recommend updating to the 1.6.1 version if you need support for Angular 12.
