Bootstrap Dropdown menu is not working

Question

I am having trouble getting my dropdowns to work. I can get the navbar to show up perfectly, but when I click on \"Dropdown\" (either of them) it does not display the dropdo

Looks like there is more to be done for Rails 4.

1. Inside you Gemfile add.

   gem 'bootstrap-sass', '~> 3.2.0.2'

as seen here

2. Next you need to run

   $bundle install

This is the part no one has mentioned

Open you config/application.rb file

3. add this right before the second to last end

   config.assets.precompile += %w(*.png *.jpg *.jpeg *.gif)

as seen here about a 20% down the page.

4. Next create a custom.css.scss file in this directory

   app/assets/stylesheets

as seen here a little further down from the above task

5. Inside that file include

   @import "bootstrap";

---

Now stop your server and restart and everything should work fine.

I tried to run bootstrap without using a gem but it didn't work for me.

Hope that helps someone out!
