Bootstrap Modals keep adding padding-right to body after closed

I am using Bootstrap and Parse framework to build a small web app. But those Bootstrap modals keep adding padding-right to the body after closed. How to solve this?

I tried to put this code in my javascript:

$('.modal').on('hide.bs.modal', function (e) {
    $("element.style").css("padding-right","0");
});

But it doesn't work. Does anybody know how to fix this?

My code:

        <button type="button" class="btn btn-lg btn-default" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#loginModal">Admin panel</button>

         <div id="loginModal" class="modal fade" role="dialog">
                  <div class="modal-dialog modal-sm">

                    <!-- Modal content -->
                    <div class="modal-content">

                      <!-- header -->
                      <div class="modal-header"> 
                        <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal">&times;</button>
                        <h4 class="modal-title">Login</h4>
                      </div>

                      <!-- body -->
                      <div class="modal-body text-center" >
                          <input class='form-control' type="text" id="userName" placeholder="Username" ng-model='username'>
                          <input class='form-control' type="password" id="password" placeholder="Password" ng-model='password'>
                        
                      <div class="modal-footer">
                        <button type="button" class="btn btn-default" id="loginButton" ng-click="goToAdminPanel()">Login</button>
                        <button type="button" class="btn btn-default" data-dismiss="modal" id="closeButton">Close</button>
                      </div>

                    </div>

                 </div>
                </div>
           </div>

        <div id="adminPanel" class="modal fade" role="dialog">
                  <div class="modal-dialog modal-lg">

                    <!-- Modal content -->
                    <div class="modal-content">

                      <!-- header -->
                      <div class="modal-header"> 
                        <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal">&times;</button>
                        <h4 class="modal-title">Admin Panel</h4>
                      </div>

                      <!-- body -->
                      <div class="modal-body" >
                        
                        </div>
                        
                      <div class="modal-footer">
                        <button type="button" class="btn btn-default" id="saveButton">Save</button>

                        <button type="button" class="btn btn-default" data-dismiss="modal" id="closeButton">Close</button>

                      

                    </div>

                 </div>
                </div>
           </div>

    $scope.goToAdminPanel = function(){
    Parse.User.logIn($scope.username,$scope.password,{
        success: function(user){
            $('#loginModal').modal('hide');
            $('#adminPanel').modal();
        },
        error: function(user, error) {
            alert('Wrong username and/or password');
        }
    });
}

I have just used the css fix below and it is working for me

body { padding-right: 0 !important }

This might be a glitch from Bootstrap modal. From my tests, it seems like the problem is that #adminPanel is being initialized while #loginModal has not been totally closed yet. The workarounds can be removing the animation by removing the fade class on #adminPanel and #loginModal or set a timeout (~500ms) before calling $('#adminPanel').modal();. Hope this helps.


.modal-open {
    padding-right: 0px !important;
}

Just changed to

.modal {
    padding-right: 0px !important;
}

A pure CSS solution that keeps the bootstrap functionality as it should be.

body:not(.modal-open){
  padding-right: 0px !important;
}

The problem is caused by a function in the bootstrap jQuery that adds a bit of padding-right when a modal window opens if there is a scroll bar on the page. That stops your body content from shifting around when the modal opens, and it's a nice feature. But it's causing this bug.

A lot of the other solutions given here break that feature, and make your content shift slightly about when the modal opens. This solution will preserve the feature of the bootstrap modal not shifting content around, but fix the bug.
