HTML – Bootstrap JavaScript Not Loading Due to Wrong File Path

[Eugest Xhelollari]

🔴 Error

Bootstrap JS file path is wrong
❌ Before (broken):

<script src=”../assets/dist/js/bootstrap.bundle.min.js”></script>

What’s wrong: The path ../assets/dist/js/ points to a folder that does not exist in this project. The actual Bootstrap JS file is located at assets/js/, not assets/dist/js/. This means Bootstrap’s JavaScript (dropdowns, modals, theme toggle) will not work at all.

✅ After (fixed):

<!– Corrected path: removed the non-existent /dist/ folder from the path –>
<script src=”<?=ROOT?>/assets/js/bootstrap.bundle.min.js”></script>

Why it’s fixed: The path now correctly points to where the Bootstrap JS file actually lives in the project, so all Bootstrap interactive features will work properly.
