I am stuck at my first personal project.
I have been trying for hours to get the bootstrap 4 navbar fixed at the top while the body is centered( max widith 970px). Everything works well until fixed-top is included, and I included all the suggestions but no luck. I tried body padding 50px , enclose the navbar in container. Here is my code






  body {
background: #eeeeee;
font-family: 'Varela Round', sans-serif;
padding-top: 50px;
}

.content {
background-color: #fff;
max-width: 970px;
margin: 0 auto;
}

.form-inline {
display: inline-block;
}

.navbar-header.col {
padding: 0 !important;
}

.navbar {
background: #fff;
padding-left: 16px;
padding-right: 16px;
border-bottom: 1px solid #d6d6d6;
box-shadow: 0 0 4px rgba(0, 0, 0, .1);
}

.nav-link img {
border-radius: 50%;
width: 36px;
height: 36px;
margin: -8px 0;
float: left;
margin-right: 10px;
}

.navbar .navbar-brand {
color: #555;
padding-left: 0;
font-size: 20px;
padding-right: 50px;
font-family: 'Raleway', sans-serif;
}

.navbar .navbar-brand b {

.navbar ul.nav li.active a,

          • Thanks but the problem is not on the content following the nav but the nav itself exceeds the limit. I couldn't get the nav fixed at the top at the same within the max width (970px)
