Don't want to trigger modal when clicking inside dropdown inside same parent element

Running this piece of Bootstrap HTML and JS code below, I am struggling to not initiate the modal when clicking on the dropdown navi-link (e.g. Mark as Read).
<ul id="notification_items" class="navi navi-hover">
<!--begin::Item-->
<li id="1f7cbbe4-2345-486a-ab66-b05601f033a9" data-notification-id="1f7cbbe4-2345-486a-ab66-b05601f033a9" data-notification-subject="Some Subject" data-notification-message="And some message" class="notification_item cursor-pointer navi-item">
<div class="pr-10 pl-2 navi-link">
<div class="navi-label mx-5"><span class="label label-dot label-lg label-primary mt-n6"></span></div>
<div class="navi-text">
<span class="font-weight-bolder font-size-lg">Some Subject</span><span class="text-muted"> - And some message</span>
<div class="text-muted font-size-sm">3 hours ago</div>
</div>
<div class="notification_actions dropdown dropdown-inline d-none">
<i class="far fa-ellipsis-h"></i>
<div class="dropdown-menu dropdown-menu-sm dropdown-menu-right" style="">
<ul class="navi flex-column navi-hover py-2">
<li class="navi-item"><span data-notification-id="1f7cbbe4-2345-486a-ab66-b05601f033a9" class="notification_mark_as_read navi-link"><span class="navi-icon"><i class="fad fa-comment-check"></i></span><span class="navi-text">Mark as Read</span></span></li>
<div class="dropdown-divider"></div>
<li class="navi-item"><span class="navi-icon"><i class="far fa-trash-alt text-danger"></i></span><span class="navi-text text-danger">Delete</span></li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</li>
<!--end::Item-->
</ul>
And the simple JS code piece to show the modal when clicking on the <li>:
$(document).on("click", ".notification_item", function () {
$('#notification').modal('show');
});
I tried to e.stopPropagation(); when clicking on the .notification_actions Which works initially, but then obviously every other event won't work anymore.

You have to play with the arguments from the event parameter of the click event: target and currentTarget
target will return your DOM element on which the click occurred
initially
currentTarget will always be the DOM element on which your handlers
is attached -> in your case the li.notification_item
The solution is to identify the element the click occured on - target. There are a lot of ways - in your case you can detect if your click occured in the dropdown navi-link (.dropdown-menu) by traversing the DOM up until the root menu (#notification_items):
$(document).on("click", ".notification_item", function (e) {
// you traverse up to the root ul, and looking if you are in a dropdown menu
if ($(e.target).closest('.dropdown-menu', '#notification_items').length > 0) {
// You are in a drop down menu -> do nothing
} else {
// you are somewhere else -> trigger the modal
$('#notification').modal('show');
}
});
JSFiddle
P.S. this codes checks if you are in a dropdown-menu, you can use specific selector if you want to check for a specific dropdown.

sorting bootstrap modal-body elements in Javascript/Jquery when the page loads

I am working on the fiddle in which I want to sort multiple rows (Row1 having def and Assign a Computer Section, Row2 having abc and Assign a Computer Section, etc) coming from Bootstrap Modal.
At this moment, the rows are not sorted in the modal. The HTML/Bootstrap code which I have used in order to create the modal is :
<div class="row-computerlabel form-group clearfix">
<div class="editcomputerlabel col-sm-5">abc</div>
<div class="assigncomputerlabel col-sm-5">
<div class="btn-group bootstrap-select show-tick computerlabelscomputerselector">
<button type="button" class="btn dropdown-toggle btn-default" data-toggle="dropdown" title="Assign a computer"><span class="filter-option pull-left">Assign a computer</span> <span class="bs-caret"><span class="caret"></span></span></button>
<div class="dropdown-menu open">
<ul class="dropdown-menu inner" role="menu"></ul>
</div>
<select class="computerlabelscomputerselector selectpicker" multiple="" title="Assign a computer" tabindex="-98"></select>
</div>
</div>
<div class="deletecomputerlabel col-sm-2"><button class="btn btn-link btn-delete" data-task="deletelabel" title="Delete group" type="button"><i class="fa fa-trash-o"></i></button></div>
</div>
Problem Statement:
I am wondering what plain Javascript or Jquery code I need to add above so that all the contents in the Bootstrap Modal get sorted meaning abc, def, jkl text should show up first with their assigned computers in the fiddle when the page loads.

You could use the sort function of JavaScript.
jQuery
$(document).ready(function(){
var rowComputer = $('.row-computerlabel');
rowComputer.sort(function(a,b){
var label1 = $(a).children('.editcomputerlabel').text();
var label2 = $(b).children('.editcomputerlabel').text();
return label1 >= label2;
});
rowComputer.appendTo('#computerlabeltable');
});
This piece of code is really simple. You have in the rowComputer variable all your rows.
You apply the sort function on your array and you need to specify the condition of your sorting (here it needs to be sorted alphabetically).
Finally, you append your array containing your rows in the div englobing all yours rows.

Edit items by clicking a button. Angular.js

I currently have a directive to dynamically edit a field. I have in the header of the accordion a field to edit and another field in the content of the accordion. If I click the edit button, the fields in the respective row can be edited, and this works fine. My problem is when I save or when I cancel it (when I click on the save or cancel button) immediately disappears the text field of both the header and the contents of the header. I need the text field ONLY disappear for the item in which I am going to save or cancel. When you click on the edit button, the 2 text fields should appear in both the header and the content (this works). And when clicking save or cancel, the text field in the selected element should disappear / appear.
<div ng-controller="AccordionDemoCtrl">
<uib-accordion close-others="true">
<div ng-repeat="faq in faqs">
<div class="col-sm-11" >

use one-way (one-directional) binding for editState
scope: {
model: '=ngModel',
editState: '<'
},

I believe you'll need to manage two separate booleans at the controller level so one directive doesn't overwrite the status of the other and then you have to set both booleans with your open button. I kept the master state so your glyph button will open or close both and the save/cancel should operate independently of each other.
$scope.editState = false;
$scope.editHeader = false;
$scope.editBody = false;
$scope.toggleEditState = function(index, val) {
debugger;
$scope.editState = !$scope.editState;
$scope.faqs[index].editHeader = $scope.editState;
$scope.faqs[index].editBody = $scope.editState;
}
<div ng-repeat="faq in faqs">
<div class="col-sm-11" >
<div uib-accordion-group class="panel-default" is-open="faq.open">
<uib-accordion-heading >
<span ng-click="ignoreClick($event);" ><a href='' click-to-edit edit-state='faq.editHeader' ng-model='faq.pregunta' typeinput='textarea' >{{faq.pregunta}}</a></span> <i class="pull-right glyphicon" ng-class="{'glyphicon-chevron-down': faq.open, 'glyphicon-chevron-right': !faq.open}"></i>
</uib-accordion-heading>
<span click-to-edit edit-state='faq.editBody' ng-model="faq.respuesta" >{{faq.respuesta}}</span>
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-sm-1" >
<button type="button" ng-click="toggleEditState($index)" class="btn btn-default">
<span class="glyphicon glyphicon glyphicon-edit"></span>
</button>
</div>

You could also communicate the master status with the directives if you wanted their input fields to open and close both.

Expand/Collapse several blocks at the same time?

I have several blocks in my page. I use bootstrap 4 alpha 6 version. I want expand/collapse these blocks by clicking one button. Right know I use next js code and it only open all blocks but how to close them?! How to fix this problem?
HTML:
<div class="card">
<div class="card-header">
<button id='expand-collapse' type="button" data-parent="#blocks" data-toggle="collapse" data-target=".block" aria-expanded="false" aria-controls=".block">
</button>
</div>
<div class="card-block">
<div id="blocks">
<div class="list-group">
<div class="list-group-item">
<a data-toggle="collapse" href="#block-1" aria-expanded="false" aria-controls="block-1"OPEN FIRST</a>
<div class="collapse block" id="block-1">
<!--FIRST BLOCK BLOCK-->
</div>
</div>
<div class="list-group-item">
<a data-toggle="collapse" href="#block-2" aria-expanded="false" aria-controls="block-2">OPEN SECOND</a>
<div class="collapse block" id="block-2">
<!--SECOND BLOCK-->
</div>
</div>
<div class="list-group-item">
<a data-toggle="collapse" href="#block-3" aria-expanded="false" aria-controls="block-3">OPEN THIRD</a>
<div class="collapse block" id="block-3">
<!--THIRD BLOCK-->
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
JAVASCRIPT:
$(function() {
$('#expand-collapse').on('click', function() { // We capture the click event
var target = $(this).attr('data-target'); // We get teh target element selector
$(target).each(function() { // Loop through each element
if ($(this).hasClass('show')) { // Check if it's already visible or not
$(this).collapse('hide'); // Show and hide accordingly
} else {
$(this).collapse('show');
}
});
});
});
$(document).ready(function () {
$('.collapse')
.on('shown.bs.collapse', function(event) {
event.stopPropagation();
$(this)
.parent().parent()
.find(".fa-commenting-o")
.removeClass("fa-commenting-o")
.addClass("fa-commenting");
}).on('hidden.bs.collapse', function(event) {
event.stopPropagation();
$(this)
.parent().parent()
.find(".fa-commenting")
.removeClass("fa-commenting")
.addClass("fa-commenting-o");
});
});

The code that youve used will work as expected in bootstrap3 due to the way collapse was handled then (You can verify it by using JS & CSS of bootstrap V3)
Comming to solving your problem the following snippet would work as expected:
$(function() {
$('#expand-collapse').on('click', function() { // We capture the click event
var target = $(this).attr('data-target'); // We get teh target element selector
$(target).each(function() { // Loop through each element
if ($(this).hasClass('show')) { // Check if it's already visible or not
$(this).collapse('hide'); // Show and hide accordingly
} else {
$(this).collapse('show');
}
});
});
});
TIP:
We can also pass toggle argument to the collapse function and get rid of the if-else condition
$(this).collapse('toggle'); can be used to replace the if-else
But I did not use this in my example to show that you can add additional computation in it
Working Fiddle
UPDATE:
The updated question asks for individual control for the block
To acheive that, we can use the default method of triggering the action with a button element.
<div class="list-group-item">
<div class="collapse block" id="block-1">
FIRST BLOCK
</div>
</div>
<button class="btn btn-primary" type="button" data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#block-1">
Block 1
</button>
You can find the updated jsFidde here

Add an else statement to handle all other cases that don't match the criteria to show. Try this:
$(function () {
$('#expand-collapse').on('click',function(){
$('[data-toggle="collapse"]').each(function(){
var objectID=$(this).attr('data-target');
if($(objectID).hasClass('.collapse')===false)
{
$(objectID).collapse('show');
} else {
$(objectID).collapse('hide');
}
});
});
});

There is an error with the Bootstrap v4.0.0-alpha.6 version with the transitioning that will be solved on the next release.

Dynamically adding items to HTML list

I'm currently building a wizard in asp.net MVC 5 application using knockout. On one of the steps, I need to add items to an html list. that is, text is enter into a textbox and you click the added button, the text is added to the list.
My template:
<script type="text/html" id="addProduct">
<li class="dd-item bordered-inverse animated fadeInDown">
<div class="dd-handle dd-nodrag">
<div class="checkbox">
<label>
<a data-bind="attr: { 'href': '#' }" class='btn btn-xs icon-only success'><i class="fa fa-trash-o"></i></a>
<label data-bind="text: Name, uniqueName: true"></label>
</label>
</div>
</div>
</li>
</script>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-6">
<div id="newProduct" class="dd">
<ol class="dd-list" data-bind="template: { name: 'addProduct', foreach: Model.Step1.ProductServices }"></ol>
</div>
</div>
</div>
input textbox:
#Html.TextBoxFor(model => model.Step1.ProductService, new { data_bind = "value: Model.Step1.ProductService")
<button type="button" id="addservice" data-bind="event:{ click: AddProduct }">Add Service/Product</button>
knockout add event:
self.AddProduct = function () {
self.Model.CurrentStep().ProductServices.push({ name: self.Model.CurrentStep().ProductService });
}
self.Model.CurrentStep().ProductServices is a List Product as just one property name.
The code above add an item to the html list and updates the UI, but self.Model.CurrentStep().ProductServices.length is always zero, meaning nothing was added to the Model itself.
Please how can I force it to update the self.Model.CurrentStep().ProductServices?

length is not a property of an observableArray. Check ProductServices().length instead.
