Bootstrap - 5 column layout
5 Columns with Bootstrap 4
Here is 5 equal, full-width columns (no extra CSS or SASS) using the auto-layout grid..
<div class="container-fluid">
<div class="row">
<div class="col">1</div>
<div class="col">2</div>
<div class="col">3</div>
<div class="col">4</div>
<div class="col">5</div>
</div>
</div>

This solution works because Bootstrap 4 is now flexbox. You can get the 5 colums to wrap within the same .row
using a clearfix break such as <div class="col-12"></div>
or <div class="w-100"></div>
every 5 columns.
Update 2020
As of Bootstrap 4.4, you can also use the row-cols-5
class on the row
...
<div class="container">
<div class="row row-cols-5">
<div class="col">
X
</div>
<div class="col">
X
</div>
<div class="col">
X
</div>
<div class="col">
X
</div>
<div class="col">
X
</div>
<div class="col">
X
</div>
</div>
</div>

Default bootstrap(version 4.6) grid allows you to do this.
You can make 7, 7 11 columns in a row.
<div class="container">
<div class="row row-cols-5">
<div class="col">Column</div>
<div class="col">Column</div>
<div class="col">Column</div>
<div class="col">Column</div>
<div class="col">Column</div>
<div class="col">Column</div>
<div class="col">Column</div>
<div class="col">Column</div>
</div>
</div>
Responsive version of this.
<div class="container">
<div class="row row-cols-2 row-cols-sm-3 row-cols-md-4 row-cols-lg-5 row-cols-xl-5">
<div class="col">Column</div>
<div class="col">Column</div>
<div class="col">Column</div>
<div class="col">Column</div>
<div class="col">Column</div>
<div class="col">Column</div>
<div class="col">Column</div>
<div class="col">Column</div>
</div>
</div>
UPDATE, 2021: for modern Bootstrap (4+), I recommend Zim's answer due to it's natural way of using Bootstrap flex classes
.col-xs-2{
background:#00f;
color:#FFF;
}
.col-half-offset{
margin-left:4.166666667%
}
<link href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.5/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet"/>
<div class="container">
<div class="row" style="border: 1px solid red">
<div class="col-xs-2" id="p1">One</div>
<div class="col-xs-2 col-half-offset" id="p2">Two</div>
<div class="col-xs-2 col-half-offset" id="p3">Three</div>
<div class="col-xs-2 col-half-offset" id="p4">Four</div>
<div class="col-xs-2 col-half-offset" id="p5">Five</div>
<div>lorem</div>
</div>
</div>
This should be ok.
