Bootstrap: How do I make Dropdown navigation Parent links an active link?

Question

I am running Bootstrap on a WP install and have an issue with the url being stripped from the parent drop down nav item.

Here is the code. In menu-item-72

To add on to Sohail Qureshi's solution, I modified the file a bit more, and here's a way that converts the parent link to an actual link:

in wp-bootstrap-navwalker.php, change this piece of code:

// If item has_children add atts to a.
if ( $args->has_children && $depth === 0 ) {
   $atts['href']        = '#';
   $atts['data-toggle'] = 'dropdown';
   $atts['class']           = 'dropdown-toggle';
} else {
   $atts['href'] = ! empty( $item->url ) ? $item->url : '';
}

to:

    // If item has_children add atts to a.
    if ( $args->has_children && $depth === 0 ) {
        $atts['href']           = ( $item->url );
        $atts['data-toggle']    = 'dropdown';
        $atts['class']          = 'dropdown-toggle disabled';
        $atts['aria-haspopup']  = 'true';
    } else {
        $atts['href'] = ! empty( $item->url ) ? $item->url : '';
    }

and now the parent link is clickable and actually link to page!
