Flushing footer to bottom of the page, twitter bootstrap

I am generally familiar with the technique of flushing a footer using css.

But I am having some trouble getting this approach to work for Twitter bootstrap, most likely due to the fact that Twitter bootstrap is responsive in nature. Using Twitter bootstrap I am not able to get the footer to flush to the bottom of the page using the approach described in the above blog post.

This is now included with Bootstrap 2.2.1.

Bootstrap 3.x

Use the navbar component and add .navbar-fixed-bottom class:

<div class="navbar navbar-fixed-bottom"></div>

Bootstrap 4.x

<div class="navbar fixed-bottom"></div>

Don’t forget to add body { padding-bottom: 70px; } or otherwise the page content may be covered.
