Right align element in div class

Bootstrap 5 (update 2021)

Because of new RTL support, *-left and *-right classes have changed to *-start and *-end. Here are the Bootstrap 4 to Bootstrap 5 conversions:

• float-left => float-start
• float-right => float-end
• ml-auto => ms-auto
• mr-auto => me-auto

Bootstrap 4 (original answer)

In Bootstrap 4, pull-right has been replaced with float-right.

If float-right is not working, remember that Bootstrap 4 is now flexbox, and many elements are display:flex which can prevent float-right from working. In some cases, the utility classes like align-self-end or ml-auto work to right align elements that are inside a flexbox container like a Bootstrap 4 .row, Card or Nav. The ml-auto (margin-left:auto) is used in a flexbox element to push elements to the right.

Also, remember that text-right still works on inline elements.

Bootstrap 4 align right examples

I've removed the class pull-right class from both the button and the p tag and added text-right class to the div.container.

I think this is what you need.
