Bootstrap 5 Radio

Radio

Radios are used to select one option from many in a list. Bootstrap allows you to create cross-browser radios with their custom Bootstrap checks component.

Radio

Approach

Browser default radios are replaced with the help of .form-check, a series of classes for both input types that improves the layout and behavior of their HTML elements, that provide greater customization and cross browser consistency. Radios are for selecting one option from many in a list.

Example

Default radio

Default checked radio

<div class="form-check">
  <input class="form-check-input" type="radio" name="flexRadioDefault" id="flexRadioDefault1">
  <label class="form-check-label" for="flexRadioDefault1">
    Default radio
  </label>
</div>
<div class="form-check">
  <input class="form-check-input" type="radio" name="flexRadioDefault" id="flexRadioDefault2" checked>
  <label class="form-check-label" for="flexRadioDefault2">
    Default checked radio
  </label>
</div>

Disabled

Add the disabled attribute and the associated <label>s are automatically styled to match with a lighter color to help indicate the input’s state.

Disabled radio

Disabled checked radio

<div class="form-check">
  <input class="form-check-input" type="radio" name="flexRadioDisabled" id="flexRadioDisabled" disabled>
  <label class="form-check-label" for="flexRadioDisabled">
    Disabled radio
  </label>
</div>
<div class="form-check">
  <input class="form-check-input" type="radio" name="flexRadioDisabled" id="flexRadioCheckedDisabled" checked disabled>
  <label class="form-check-label" for="flexRadioCheckedDisabled">
    Disabled checked radio
  </label>
</div>

Default (stacked)

By default, any number of radios that are immediate sibling will be vertically stacked and appropriately spaced with .form-check.

Default radio

Second default radio

Disabled radio

<div class="form-check">
  <input class="form-check-input" type="radio" name="exampleRadios" id="exampleRadios1" value="option1" checked>
  <label class="form-check-label" for="exampleRadios1">
    Default radio
  </label>
</div>
<div class="form-check">
  <input class="form-check-input" type="radio" name="exampleRadios" id="exampleRadios2" value="option2">
  <label class="form-check-label" for="exampleRadios2">
    Second default radio
  </label>
</div>
<div class="form-check">
  <input class="form-check-input" type="radio" name="exampleRadios" id="exampleRadios3" value="option3" disabled>
  <label class="form-check-label" for="exampleRadios3">
    Disabled radio
  </label>
</div>

Inline

Group radios on the same horizontal row by adding .form-check-inline to any .form-check.

3 (disabled)

<div class="form-check form-check-inline">
  <input class="form-check-input" type="radio" name="inlineRadioOptions" id="inlineRadio1" value="option1">
  <label class="form-check-label" for="inlineRadio1">1</label>
</div>
<div class="form-check form-check-inline">
  <input class="form-check-input" type="radio" name="inlineRadioOptions" id="inlineRadio2" value="option2">
  <label class="form-check-label" for="inlineRadio2">2</label>
</div>
<div class="form-check form-check-inline">
  <input class="form-check-input" type="radio" name="inlineRadioOptions" id="inlineRadio3" value="option3" disabled>
  <label class="form-check-label" for="inlineRadio3">3 (disabled)</label>
</div>

Without labels

Omit the wrapping .form-check for radios that have no label text. Remember to still provide some form of accessible name for assistive technologies (for instance, using aria-label). See the forms overview accessibility section for details.

<div>
  <input class="form-check-input" type="radio" name="radioNoLabel" id="radioNoLabel1" value="" aria-label="...">
</div>

Toggle buttons

Create button-like radio buttons by using .btn styles rather than .form-check-label on the <label> elements. These toggle buttons can further be grouped in a button group if needed.

Radio toggle buttons

<input type="radio" class="btn-check" name="options" id="option1" autocomplete="off" checked>
<label class="btn btn-secondary" for="option1">Checked</label>

<input type="radio" class="btn-check" name="options" id="option4" autocomplete="off">
<label class="btn btn-secondary" for="option4">Radio</label>

Different variants of .btn, such at the various outlined styles, are supported.
