Topic: sidenav Module - ngFor Not Working

p4k1tz free asked 3 years ago


Expected behavior ngFor loop should run to generate nav items.

Actual behavior ngFor loop causes the item to not display at all.

Resources (screenshots, code snippets etc.)

<mdb-sidenav-layout>
<mdb-sidenav class="bg-dark" #sidenav="mdbSidenav" [hidden]="false"
    scrollContainer="#scroll-container" mode=side color=primary>
    <ul id="scroll-container" mdbScrollbar class="sidenav-menu bg-dark">
        <a #sidenavToggle class="inline-block p-3" [routerLink]="[]" (click)="sidenav.toggleSlim()">

<mdb-sidenav-content #sidenavContent>
    <div class="bg-light text-dark d-flex flex-column min-vh-100">
        <div class="container-fluid">
            <button #sidenavToggle class="btn btn-primary" (click)="sidenav.toggle()">
                <i class="fas fa-bars"></i>
            </button>
            <button #sidenavToggle class="btn btn-primary" (click)="sidenav.toggleSlim()">
                toggle slim
            </button>
        </div>
        <app-footer class="mt-auto"></app-footer>
    </div>
</mdb-sidenav-content>

Is there documentation somewhere that I am missing?
