I'm building a web app using Rails 5.2 and Bootstrap 4 and I'm having some trouble getting the basic layout in place.
What I'd like is to move the content for each view to the right of the sidebar. i.e. "Your companies".
Can someone help point me in the right direction so that all my views are "inside" the app view i.e below the nav and to the right of the sidebar.
Thank you! :)
Here's how the app looks currently:
Here is my application.html.erb
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Calmcap</title>
<%= csrf_meta_tags %>
<%= csp_meta_tag %>
<%= stylesheet_link_tag 'application', media: 'all', 'data-turbolinks-track': 'reload' %>
<%= javascript_include_tag 'application', 'data-turbolinks-track': 'reload' %>

<div class="container">

<p class="navbar-text pull-right">

And here is my companies view (the same as the example in the screenshot above).
<div class="container">

<button>
<%= link_to 'Create New Company', new_company_path %>
</button>
<table>
<tr>

<% #companies.each do |company| %>

<td><%= link_to 'Delete Company', company_path(company),
method: :delete,
data: { confirm: 'Are you sure?' } %></td>
</tr>
<% end %>
</table>
</div>
I guess you want to do something like that:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Calmcap</title>
<%= csrf_meta_tags %>
<%= csp_meta_tag %>
<%= stylesheet_link_tag 'application', media: 'all', 'data-turbolinks-track': 'reload' %>
<%= javascript_include_tag 'application', 'data-turbolinks-track': 'reload' %>

</div>
</div>

Also, remove the class container from your companies/index.html.erb file.
As you are using bootstrap 4, you should use float-right class to float the content to the right.
<div class="container float-right">
--------content--------
</div

so I'm a total newbie, please do bear with me.
I'm following a course online where the instructor shows navbar appearing on homepage root path but also on other pages like the posts page. I followed exactly his instructions, but for some reason the navbar which is a partial, is only appearing on the homepage but NOT on the posts page - the code for navbar is as follow and the code for the other pages are all on https://github.com/cheese1884/-mywebsite
Thanks, guys.

In your yeti.html.erb, you need to put the navbar outside the yield section:
<body>
<%= render partial: 'navbar' %> <!-- or code for navbar -->
<div>
<%= yield %>
</div>
</body>
Edit : multiple layouts explaination
Rails uses a simple convention to find the correct layout for your
request. If you have a controller called ProductsController, Rails
will see whether there is a layout for that controller at
layouts/products.html.erb. If it can't find a layout specific to your controller, it'll use the default layout at app/views/layouts/application.html.erb.
(source)
In your case you can add a custom layout such as yeti.html.erb and specify your PostsController to use this layout with layout 'yeti'
Why the navbar is appearing on homepage but not on post page (original question)
Because as i answered above, you need to add the navbar partial inside the yeti.html.erb layout same as you did in the application.html.erb layout.
Why the navbar design is different
Because in application layout you link the application.scss stylesheet which only imports bootstrap (here)
<%= stylesheet_link_tag 'application', media: 'all', 'data-turbolinks-track': 'reload' %>
In the yeti layout, you link yeti/theme_manifest.scss as stylesheet which imports both "bootstrap" and the overriding "theme" (here)
<%= stylesheet_link_tag 'yeti/theme_manifest', media: 'all', 'data-turbolinks-track': 'reload' %>
I hope this will help you to see more clearly.
As a Rails newbie, I am running into an issue in which I am struggling to figure out.
Im rendering a header universally across the four pages of my application which consists of home, about, (signup and signin which are administered through devise).
The header is fine across the home and about pages, however in the devise pages the logo image specifically arrives broken yet all of the other elements appear in tact. Any help would be appreciated.

</ul>
</div><!-- /.navbar-collapse -->
</nav>
That's the problem with how you set the path to your logo. Making it absolute or better use image_tag.
<img src="/assets/nippon.svg" ...
Notice, I've added / (forward slash) before assets.
A better way of doing it would be:
<%= image_tag('nippon.svg', alt: "Nippon Beauty", class: "navbar-brand-icon") %>
I'm using the bootstrap-sass gem and for some reason in the navbar I'm using the active class for one of the li's below, however it doesn't appear pressed down.
application.html.erb:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title><%= yield(:title) %></title>
<%= stylesheet_link_tag "application", :media => "all" %>
<%= javascript_include_tag "application" %>
<%= csrf_meta_tags %>

<body id="<%= params[:controller].parameterize %>_controller">
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="span12">
<div class="navbar">
<div class="navbar-inner">
<%= link_to 'evoALL', root_path,
html_options = {:class => 'brand'} %>
<% navArr = ["Dashboard", "Help People",
"Get Help", "Contact Us"] %>
<% flash.each do |key, value| %>
<p class="lead"><%= value %></p>
<% end %>
<ul class="nav">
<% navArr.each do |value| %>
<li>
<a
<% if (yield(:navActive)==value) %>
class="active"
<% end %>
href="#">
<%=value%>
</a>
</li>
<% end %>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<%= yield %>
<div class="container">
<div id="footer"><!-- footer start -->
<div class="row-fluid">
<div class="span12">
<p class="pull-right">
© <%= Date.today.year %>
</p>
</div>
</div>
</div><!-- footer end -->
</div>
</div> <!-- close container div -->
</body>
</html>
index.html.erb for the view file of the index method of the main controller that gets routed to for the root of the application:
<%= provide(:title, 'evoALL') %>
<%= provide(:navActive, 'Get Help') %>
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="span12">
<p>Needs Home Page</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
I was applying the active class to the a tag instead of the li tag.
The correct solution would be to replace this:
<% navArr.each do |value| %>
<ul>
<li>
<a
<% if (yield(:navActive)==value) %>
class="active"
<% end %>
href="#">
<%=value%>
</a>
</li>
</ul>
<% end %>
with this:
<ul class="nav">
<% navArr.each do |value| %>
<li
<% if (yield(:navActive)==value) %>
class="active"
<% end %>>
<a href="#">
<%=value%>
</a>
</li>
<% end %>
</ul>
My website works well on my mac and iphone but in IE it doesn't. In IE some of the navbar features aren't right (i.e. layout is incorrect, searchbox doesn't have placeholder text, one of the navbar elements (favourites) looks completely different). I'm not sure where the problem lies
layout/application.html.erb is

I've used twitter bootstrap.
I did add
<!-- HTML5 shim, for IE6-8 support of HTML5 elements -->
<!--[if lt IE 9]>
<script src="http://html5shim.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/html5.js"></script>
<![endif]-->
before my but it doesn't seem to make a difference.
First of all Placeholder is not supported till IE9 . But you can use javascript pollyfills to enable the placeholder support, use http://www.modernizr.com/ for that purpose.
I have a home page where I want to display a div in a certain way that it will require to be in the top of the application view.
Div is classed as "HOME-BANNER"
I am attempting to create an IF ELSE statement to reflect hiding the div if it is not on the home page.
My question is how do I call the current page in order to identify it as the home view's index. Also would I end the code or do I place an else statement to continue the rest of the page?

You want to do this from your controller. Since this is a localized event, use the controller that specifically hosts this View and not your application controller.
def whatever_view_this_is
#home_banner = true
end
Then in your view :
<% if #home_banner %>
<div class="HOME-BANNER">
<% end %>
