Navbar is appearing on homepage but not on post page (newbie here) - ruby-on-rails

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.

I think you need to reinitialize the elements that requires bootstrap js when the event turbolinks:load is fired, check this question Rails Bootstrap 4 with Turbolinks
It's about the tooltip js, but the same applies for any element that requires js initialization.
Something like:
$(document).on('turbolinks:load', function() {
$('.dropdown-toggle').dropdown()
})
May be you need Dropdown.parseDocument(element) or Bulma(element).dropdown() in turbolinks:load event when used #vizuaalog/bulmajs.
// global `bulmaOptions` object should be defined before BulmaJS has loaded
// disable autoParse to prevent repeated `turbolinks:load` event
window.bulmaOptions = {
autoParseDocument: false
}
// import Dropdown from '#vizuaalog/bulmajs/src/plugins/dropdown';
import Bulma from "#vizuaalog/bulmajs";
document.addEventListener("turbolinks:load", () => {
Bulma.parseDocument();
// Dropdown.parseDocument(document.getElementsByTagName('body')[0]);
Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('.dropdown')).forEach(element => {
Bulma(element).dropdown();
});
});
Note: bulmaOptions.autoParseDocument = false

rails 4 bootstrap 3 collapsable navbar

Sorry for the newbie question, but can anyone see what I'm doing wrong? I followed the directions on the bootstrap website, and am unable to create a collapsing navbar in my web app. The list items under the ="nav pull-right" won't collapse when I decrease the width of the window. I think this maybe because I don't have a collapse plugin in my bootstrap.js. Could that be the issue?

Twitter Bootstrap navbar right allign link

Helo,
New to bootstrap and trying to use it with rails. I am trying to create a navbar and trying to display a link to the extreme right of the navbar which is not working. Here is my code:
<div class="navbar navbar-fixed-top">
<div class="navbar-inner">
<div class="container">
<ul class="nav">
<li class="active">
<%= link_to "Rubyblog", root_path, :class => 'brand' %>
</li>
<li>
Edit Account
</li>
<li>
Categories
</li>
<ul class = "nav pull-right">
Current User
</ul>
</ul>
</div>
I am trying to display the last link "Current User" to the extreme right of the navbar. Using div class"nav pull-right" doesn't seem to work: http://i.imgur.com/BEBcaIc.png
Please let me know what I am missing/doing wrong. Appreciate your inputs.
Thanks!
Mike
EDIT: Answering my question:
Pulled the "nav pull-right" out of the main "nav" class tag and it worked. Updated code:
<div class="navbar navbar-fixed-top">
<div class="navbar-inner">
<div class="container">
<ul class="nav">
<li class="active">
<%= link_to "Rubyblog", root_path, :class => 'brand' %>
</li>
<% if user_signed_in? %>
<li>
<%= link_to 'Edit Account', edit_user_registration_path %>
</li>
<li>
<%= link_to 'Categories', categories_path %>
</li>
<% if current_user.has_role? :admin %>
<li>
<%= link_to 'Users', users_path %>
</li>
<%end%>
<%else%>
<li>
<%= link_to 'Sign up', new_user_registration_path %>
</li>
<% end %>
</ul>
<ul class = "nav pull-right">
<li><%= link_to 'Welcome, '+current_user.name, edit_user_registration_path %></li>
</ul>
EDIT: Answering my question:

Have you tried making your current user like the following:
<li class="pull-right">
Current User
</li>
I'm pretty sure the reason it's losing it's styling is because you are nesting nav inside a nav.
I think you want to divide the navbar into navbar-left and navbar-right:
<nav class="navbar navbar-fixed-top" role="navigation">
<!-- Brand and toggle get grouped for better mobile display -->
<div class="navbar-header">
<button type="button" class="navbar-toggle" data-toggle="collapse" data-target="#bs-example-navbar-collapse-1">
<span class="sr-only">Toggle navigation</span>
<span class="icon-bar"></span>
<span class="icon-bar"></span>
<span class="icon-bar"></span>
</button>
<a class="navbar-brand" href="#">Brand</a>
</div>
<div class="collapse navbar-collapse" id="bs-example-navbar-collapse-1">
<div class="navbar-inner">
<ul class="nav navbar-nav">
<li class="active">
<%= link_to "Rubyblog", root_path, :class => 'brand' %>
</li>
<li>
Edit Account
</li>
<li>
Categories
</li>
</ul>
<ul class = "nav navbar-nav navbar-right">
Current User
</ul>
</div>
</div>
</nav>
The bootstrap docs talk about this and say they're a bit different than pull-right - this might explain why you're seeing issues. I haven't tested the above, but it's likely a good start.

Website not functioning on all browsers

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

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.

Rails Hiding a div based on Page using IF and ELSE statements

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?
<html>
<head>
<title>WEBSITE</title>
<%= stylesheet_link_tag "application", :media => "all" %>
<%= javascript_include_tag "application" %>
<%= csrf_meta_tags %>
</head>
<body>
<% if current_page == "home#index" %>
<div class="HOME-BANNER">
<% end %>
<div class="navbar navbar-fixed-top">
<div class="navbar-inner">
<div class="container">
WEBSITE
<ul class="nav">
<li><%= link_to "All Jobs", jobs_path %></li>
<li><%= link_to "My Profile", tempers_path %></li>
</ul>
<div class="float-right">
<div class="btn-group open">
<a class="btn btn-primary" href="#"><i class="icon-user icon-white"></i></a>
<a class="btn btn-primary dropdown-toggle" data-toggle="dropdown" href="#"><span class="caret"></span></a>
<ul class="dropdown-menu">
<li><i class="icon-pencil"></i> My Profile</li>
<li class="divider"></li>
<li><i class="icon-th-large"></i> Dashboard</li>
<li><i class="icon-th-list"></i> My Posts</li>
<li><i class="icon-th-list"></i> My Searches</li>
<li><i class="icon-stop"></i> <%= link_to ' Sign out', destroy_user_session_path, :method => :delete %></li>

<p class="notice"><%= notice %></p>
<p class="alert"><%= alert %></p>
<%= yield %>
</div>
<div class="footer"></div>
</body>
</html>
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 %>
