I have 5 modal forms in a page. And I want to get the Id of the currently opened one.
I know I can check with $('#myModal').hasClass('in');. If I have 5 modal forms I have to write this 5 times. Which I don't want to.
Is there some way I can determine which modal the user has open currently open and then I will get the id of that.
You can use the shown.bs.modal event to get the current open modal.
Modal Events
shown.bs.modal
This event is fired when the modal has been made visible to the user (will wait for CSS transitions to complete). If caused by a click, the clicked element is available as the relatedTarget property of the event.
Here is an example
$('.modal').on('shown.bs.modal', function (e) {
var crntModalId = "current modal id is: " + $(this).attr('id');
$('.output').text('');
$('.output').text(crntModalId);
})

It's very simple, with bootstrap modal event's
To get any attribute value from the modal trigger button you can use $(e.relatedTarget)
To get the modal attribute value you can use $(e.currentTarget)
In your case, you can get the Opened modal id with
$('.modal').on('shown.bs.modal', function(e) {
var modalid = $(e.currentTarget).attr('id');
});
Fiddle
A bootstrap modal gets automatically the class 'shown.bs.modal' when is open, so you can use this to track which one is open.
I have looked for a while, but I can't find a solution for this. I want the following:
Open an URL inside a Bootstrap modal. I have this working off course. So the content is loaded dynamically.
When an user pushes a button inside this modal, I want the current modal to hide, and immediately after that, I want a new modal to open with the new URL (which the user clicked on). This content of the 2nd modal is also loaded dynamically.
If the user then closes that 2nd modal, the first modal must come back again.
I know this is a late answer, but it might be useful.
Here's a proper and clean way to get this done, as #karima's mentioned above. You can actually fire two functions at once; trigger and dismiss the modal.
HTML Markup;
<!-- Button trigger modal -->
<ANY data-toggle="modal" data-target="TARGET">...</ANY>
<div class="modal fade" id="SELECTOR" tabindex="-1">
<div class="modal-dialog">
<div class="modal-content">
<div class="modal-body"> ... </div>
<div class="modal-footer"> <!-- ↓ --> <!-- ↓ -->
<ANY data-toggle="modal" data-target="TARGET-2" data-dismiss="modal">...</ANY>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Demo
Without seeing specific code, it's difficult to give you a precise answer. However, from the Bootstrap docs, you can hide the modal like this:
$('#myModal').modal('hide')
Then, show another modal once it's hidden:
$('#myModal').on('hidden.bs.modal', function () {
// Load up a new modal...
$('#myModalNew').modal('show')
})
You're going to have to find a way to push the URL to the new modal window, but I'd assume that'd be trivial. Without seeing the code it's hard to give an example of that.
It's not exactly the response but it's useful when you want to close the current modal and open a new modal.
In the html in the same button, you can ask to close the current modal with data-dismiss and open a new modal directly with data-target:
<button class="btn btn-success"
data-toggle="modal"
data-target="#modalRegistration"
data-dismiss="modal">Register</button>
I use this method:
$(function() {
return $(".modal").on("show.bs.modal", function() {
var curModal;
curModal = this;
$(".modal").each(function() {
if (this !== curModal) {
$(this).modal("hide");
}
});
});
});
Problem with data-dismiss="modal" is it will shift your content to left
I am sharing what worked for me, problem statment was opening pop1 from pop2
JS CODE
var showPopup2 = false;
$('#popup1').on('hidden.bs.modal', function () {
if (showPopup2) {
$('#popup2').modal('show');
showPopup2 = false;
}
});
$("#popup2").click(function() {
$('#popup1').modal('hide');
showPopup2 = true;
});
As mentioned above In the html in the same button, you can ask to close the current modal with data-dismiss and open a new modal directly with data-target:
<button class="btn btn-success" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#modalRegistration" data-dismiss="modal">Register</button>
But this will cause scroll-bar to disappear and you will notice that if the second modal was taller than the first one
So the solution is to add the following style in the modal inline style :
Style = "overflow-y : scroll ; "
By using the following code you can hide first modal and immediately open second modal, by using same strategy you can hide second modal and show the first one.
$("#buttonId").on("click", function(){
$("#currentModalId").modal("hide");
$("#currentModalId").on("hidden.bs.modal",function(){
$("#newModalId").modal("show");
});
});
You need to add following attribute to the link or button where you want add this functionality:
data-dismiss="modal" data-toggle="modal" id="forgotPassword" data-target="#ModalForgotPassword"
A detaile blog: http://sforsuresh.in/bootstrap-modal-window-close-current-open-new-modal/
data-dismiss="modal"
it is used to close the existing opened model. you can set it to the new model
For Bootstrap v4
You can toggle between modals by having putting data-dismiss="modal" and data-toggle="modal" in the same HTML element. You'd also need the data-target attribute set to the modal you'd like to open.
Here's an example:
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary" data-dismiss="modal" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#Modal2" >
Open second modal
</button>
Remember to set an id for each of the modals and have the data-target point to the one you'd like to open
For bootstrap v5
Same as v4 just using the attributes data-bs-toggle data-bs-dismiss and data-bs-target
Like this:
<button class="btn btn-primary" data-bs-dismiss="modal" data-bs-toggle="modal" data-bs-target="#Modal2" >
Open second modal
</button>
They've included an example of this in the v5 documentation
NOTE:
The two modals need to be independent of each other, not nested in one another, in order for this to work.
So if you're using an MVC framework, say for example ASP.NET MVC, and have the first modal as its own partial view, you can't have the second modal in that view. You'll need to put the second modal in the parent view.
With BootStrap 3, you can try this:-
var visible_modal = jQuery('.modal.in').attr('id'); // modalID or undefined
if (visible_modal) { // modal is active
jQuery('#' + visible_modal).modal('hide'); // close modal
}
Tested to work with: http://getbootstrap.com/javascript/#modals (click on "Launch Demo Modal" first).
I have exact same problem, and my solution is only if modal dialog have [role="dialog"] attribute :
/*
* Find and Close current "display:block" dialog,
* if another data-toggle=modal is clicked
*/
jQuery(document).on('click','[data-toggle*=modal]',function(){
jQuery('[role*=dialog]').each(function(){
switch(jQuery(this).css('display')){
case('block'):{jQuery('#'+jQuery(this).attr('id')).modal('hide'); break;}
}
});
});
I had the same issue as #Gravity Grave whereby scrolling doesn't work if you use
data-toggle="modal" data-target="TARGET-2"
in conjunction with
data-dismiss="modal"
The scroll doesn't work correctly and reverts to scrolling the page rather than the modal. This is due to data-dismiss removing the modal-open class from the tag.
My solution in the end was to set the html of the inner component on the modal and use css to fade the text in/out.
Had the same issue, writing this here in case someone in the future stumbles upon this and has issues with multiple modals that have to have scrolling as well (I'm using Bootstrap 3.3.7)
What I did is have a button like this inside my first modal:
<div id="FirstId" data-dismiss="modal" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#YourModalId_2">Open modal</div>
It will hide the first and then display the second, and in the second modal I would have a close button that would look like this:
<div id="SecondId" data-dismiss="modal" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#YourModalId_1">Close</div>
So this will close the second modal and open up the first one and to make scrolling work I added to my .css file this line:
.modal {
overflow: auto !important;
}
PS: Just a side note, you have to have these modals separately, the minor modal can not be nested in the first one as you hide the first one
So here's the full example based on the bootstrap modal example:
<!-- Button trigger modal -->
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#exampleModal">
Launch demo modal
</button>
<!-- Modal 1 -->
<div class="modal fade" id="exampleModal" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="exampleModalLabel" aria-hidden="true">
<div class="modal-dialog" role="document">
<div class="modal-content">
<div class="modal-header">
<h5 class="modal-title" id="exampleModalLabel">Modal title</h5>
<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-label="Close">
<span aria-hidden="true">×</span>
</button>
</div>
<div class="modal-body">
Add lorem ipsum here
</div>
<div class="modal-footer">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary" data-dismiss="modal" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#exampleModal2">
Open second modal
</button>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<!-- Modal 2 -->
<div class="modal fade" id="exampleModal2" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="exampleModalLabel" aria-hidden="true">
<div class="modal-dialog" role="document">
<div class="modal-content">
<div class="modal-header">
<h5 class="modal-title" id="exampleModalLabel">Modal title</h5>
<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-label="Close">
<span aria-hidden="true">×</span>
</button>
</div>
<div class="modal-body">
...
</div>
<div class="modal-footer">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary" data-dismiss="modal" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#exampleModal">Close</button>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
This code, close modal opened, open the new modal but inmediatly, new modal is closed.
$(nameClose).modal('hide');
$(nameOpen).modal('show');
My solution for open new modal after close other is:
function swapModals(nameClose,nameOpen) {
$(nameClose).modal('hide');
$(nameClose).on('hidden.bs.modal', function () {
console.log('Fired when hide event has finished!');
$(nameOpen).modal('show');
});
}
Using click function:
$('.btn-editUser').on('click', function(){
$('#viewUser').modal('hide'); // hides modal with id viewUser
$('#editUser').modal('show'); // display modal with id editUser
});
Heads up:
Make sure that the one you want to show is an independent modal.
In first modal:
replace modal dismiss link in footer with close link below.
<div class="modal-footer">
Close
</div>
In second modal:
Then second modal replace top div with below div tag.
<div class="modal fade" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="add text for disabled people here" aria-hidden="true" id="second_model_id">
Try this
$('#model1').modal('hide');
setTimeout(function(){
$('#modal2').modal('show');
},400);
just close all open modals before opening a new one
$('.modal').modal('hide'); // close all open modals
$('#login').modal('show'); // open a modal named #login
$("#buttonid").click(function(){
$('#modal_id_you_want_to_hid').modal('hide')
});
// same as above button id
$("#buttonid").click(function(){
$('#Modal_id_You_Want_to_Show').modal({backdrop: 'static', keyboard: false})});
I use another way:
$('#showModal').on('hidden.bs.modal', function() {
$('#easyModal').on('shown.bs.modal', function() {
$('body').addClass('modal-open');
});
});
If you want to close the previously opened modal while opening the new modal then you must do it from javascript/jquery by first closing the current open modal and then give a 400ms timeout to allow it to close and then open the new modal like below code :
$('#currentModal').modal('hide');
setTimeout(function() {
//your code to be executed after 200 msecond
$('#newModal').modal({
backdrop: 'static'//to disable click close
})
}, 400);//delay in miliseconds##1000=1second
If you try to do it with the data-dismiss="modal" then it will have the scroll issue as mentioned by #gravity and #kuldeep in comments.
None of the answers helped me since I wanted to achieve something which was exactly the same as mentioned in the question.
I have created a jQuery plugin for this purpose.
/*

* 1. User displays modal A

var StackedModalNamespace = StackedModalNamespace || (function() {
var _modalObjectsStack = [];
return {
modalStack: function() {
return _modalObjectsStack;
},
currentTop: function() {
var topModal = null;
if (StackedModalNamespace.modalStack().length) {
topModal = StackedModalNamespace.modalStack()[StackedModalNamespace.modalStack().length-1];
}
return topModal;
}
};
}());
// http://stackoverflow.com/a/13992290/260665 difference between $.fn.extend and $.extend
jQuery.fn.extend({

showStackedModal: function() {
var topModal = StackedModalNamespace.currentTop();
StackedModalNamespace.modalStack().push(this);
this.off('hidden.bs.modal').on('hidden.bs.modal', function(){ // Subscription to the hide event
var currentTop = StackedModalNamespace.currentTop();
if ($(this).is(currentTop)) {
// 4. Unwinding - If user has dismissed the top most modal we need to remove it form the stack and display the now new top modal (which happens in point 3 below)
StackedModalNamespace.modalStack().pop();
}
var newTop = StackedModalNamespace.currentTop();
if (newTop) {
// 3. Display the new top modal (since the existing modal would have been hidden by point 2 now)
newTop.modal('show');
}
});
if (topModal) {
// 2. If some modal is displayed, lets hide it
topModal.modal('hide');
} else {
// 1. If no modal is displayed, just display the modal
this.modal('show');
}
},
});
Working Fiddle for reference, JSFiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/gumdal/67hzgp5c/
You just have to invoke with my new API "showStackedModal()" instead of just "modal('show')". The hide part can still be the same as before and the stacked approach of showing & hiding the modals are automatically taken care.
Simple and elegant solution for BootStrap 3.x. The same modal can be reused in this way.
$("#myModal").modal("hide");
$('#myModal').on('hidden.bs.modal', function (e) {
$("#myModal").html(data);
$("#myModal").modal();
// do something more...
});
if you use mdb use this code
var visible_modal = $('.modal.show').attr('id'); // modalID or undefined
if (visible_modal) { // modal is active
$('#' + visible_modal).modal('hide'); // close modal
}

I might be a bit late to this but I think I've found working solution.
Required -
jQuery
All modals with a closing/dismissal button having attributes set as follows -
<button type="button" class="btn close_modal" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#Modal">Close</button>
Please see the class close_modal added to the button's classes
Now to close all existing modals, we'll call
$(".close_modal").trigger("click");
So, wherever you want to open a modal
Just add the above code and your all open modals shall get closed.
Then add your normal code to open the desired modal
$("#DesiredModal").modal();
Hide modal dialog box.
Method 1: using Bootstrap.
$('.close').click();
$("#MyModal .close").click();
$('#myModalAlert').modal('hide');
Method 2: using stopPropagation().
$("a.close").on("click", function(e) {
$("#modal").modal("hide");
e.stopPropagation();
});
Method 3: after shown method invoke.
$('#myModal').on('shown', function () {
$('#myModal').modal('hide');
})
Method 4: Using CSS.
this.display='block'; //set block CSS
this.display='none'; //set none CSS after close dialog
Just copy and paste this code and you can experiment with two modals. Second modal is open after closing the first one:
<!-- Button to Open the Modal -->
<button type="button" class="btn btn-primary" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#myModal">
Open modal
</button>
<!-- The Modal -->
<div class="modal" id="myModal">
<div class="modal-dialog">
<div class="modal-content">
<!-- Modal Header -->
<div class="modal-header">
<h4 class="modal-title">Modal Heading</h4>
<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal">×</button>
</div>
<!-- Modal body -->
<div class="modal-body">
Modal body..
</div>
<!-- Modal footer -->
<div class="modal-footer">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-danger" data-dismiss="modal">Close</button>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<!-- The Modal 2 -->
<div class="modal" id="myModal2">
<div class="modal-dialog">
<div class="modal-content">
<!-- Modal Header -->
<div class="modal-header">
<h4 class="modal-title">Second modal</h4>
<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal">×</button>
</div>
<!-- Modal body -->
<div class="modal-body">
Modal body..
</div>
<!-- Modal footer -->
<div class="modal-footer">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-danger" data-dismiss="modal">Close</button>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<script>
$('#myModal').on('hidden.bs.modal', function () {
$('#myModal2').modal('show')
})
</script>
