Toast - Update Position is throwing Cannot read properties o


Topic: Toast - Update Position is throwing "Cannot read properties of null (reading 'update')"

DiStefano pro premium asked a year ago

Hello all,

In my application I am trying to do a simple:

instance.update({ position: 'top-right', });

Using from the example in the DOCs:

const instance = mdb.Toast.getInstance(document.getElementById('position-example-toast'));
instance.update({ position: 'bottom-right', });

But in the console in Edge, it's throwing and not doing bottom-right:

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read properties of null (reading 'update')

I'm using "mdb.min.js" from version 6.4 Pro but it constantly laughs at me, I don't think it's the order I'm pulling in the JS

<script src="~/lib/jquery/dist/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="~/lib/mdb/js/mdb.min.js"></script>

Thanks

Here is a snippet showing how to update the toast position: https://mdbootstrap.com/snippets/standard/kpienkowska/5553888

Thank you, but the reason that I'm inquiring about using the "instance.update" is because I want to give the users an option on where they want to position the notifications and I just don't understand why I am getting the "Cannot read properties of null (reading 'update')". Thanks

kpienkowska, disregard my above comment, I'm a knucklehead. For some reason, your snippet that you provided above, works in my app without giving me an issue with the 'update' in my JS. Thanks again, much appreciated.
