Simply add the following CSS to you existing one It works fine for me   modal     text-align  center     media screen and  min-width  768px         modal before         display  inline-block        vertical-align  middle        content             height  100            modal-dialog     display  inline-block    text-align  left    vertical-align  middle

Because most of the answer here didn t work  or only partially worked   body modal-open  modal style  not  style  display  none           display  flex  important      height  100       body modal-open  modal style  not  style  display  none      modal-dialog       margin  auto      You have to use the  style  selector to only apply the style on the modal that is currently active instead of all the modals    in would have been great  but it appears to be added only after the transition is complete which is too late and makes for some really bad transitions   Fortunately it appears bootstrap always applies a style attribute on the modal just as it is starting to show so this is a bit hacky  but it works   The  not  style  display  none     portion is a workaround to bootstrap not correctly removing the style attribute and instead setting the style display to none when you close the dialog

The top parameter is being overridden in  modal fade in to force the value set in your custom declaration  add the  important keyword after top  This forces the browser to use that value and ignore any other values for the keyword  This has the drawback that you can t override the value anywhere else    modal       position  fixed      top  50   important      left  50

The cleanest and simplest way to do this is to use Flexbox  The following will vertically align a Bootstrap 3 modal in the center of the screen and is so much cleaner and simpler than all of the other solutions posted here   body modal-open  modal in     display  flex  important    align-items  center      NOTE  While this is the simplest solution  it may not work for everyone due to browser support  http   caniuse com  feat flexbox  It looks like  per usual  IE lags behind  In my case  all the products I develop for myself or for clients are IE10    it doesn t make sense business wise to invest development time supporting older versions of IE when it could be used to actually develop the product and get the MVP out faster   This is certainly not a luxury that everyone has    I have seen larger sites detect whether or not flexbox is supported and apply a class to the body of the page - but that level of front-end engineering is pretty robust  and you d still need a fallback   I would encourage people to embrace the future of the web  Flexbox is awesome and you should start using it if you can   P S  - This site really helped me grasp flexbox as a whole and apply it to any use case  http   flexboxfroggy com   EDIT  In the case of two modals on one page  this should apply to  modal in

Another CSS answer to this question    This solution uses CSS only to achieve the desired effect while still maintaining the ability to close the modal by clicking outside of it  It also allows you to set  modal-content height and width maximums so that your pop-up won t grow beyond the viewport  A scroll will automatically appear when the content grows beyond the modal size   note  The Bootstrap recommended  modal-dialog div should be omitted in order for this to work properly  doesn t seem to break anything   Tested in Chrome 51 and IE 11   CSS Code    modal      height  100      width  100       modal-content      margin  0 auto     max-height  600px     max-width  50      overflow  auto     transform  translateY -50        EDIT  The  modal-dialog class allows you to choose whether or not a user can close the modal by clicking outside of the modal itself  Most modals have an explicit  close  or  cancel  button  Keep this in mind when using this workaround

Use this simple script that centers the modals   If you want you can set a custom class  ex   modal modal-vcenter instead of  modal  to limit the functionality only to some modals   var modalVerticalCenterClass     modal    function centerModals  element        var  modals      if   element length           modals    element        else        modals     modalVerticalCenterClass     visible       modals each  function i        var  clone     this  clone   css  display    block   appendTo  body        var top   Math round   clone height   -  clone find   modal-content   height      2       top   top  gt  0   top   0       clone remove          this  find   modal-content   css  margin-top   top           modalVerticalCenterClass  on  show bs modal   function e        centerModals   this          window  on  resize   centerModals     Also add this CSS fix for the modal s horizontal spacing  we show the scroll on the modals  the body scrolls is hidden automatically by Bootstrap      scroll fixes     modal-open  modal     padding-left  0px  important    padding-right  0px  important    overflow-y  scroll

Because gpcola s answer didn t work for me  I edited a bit so its works now  I used  margin-top  instead of transform  Also  i use the  show  instead of  shown  event because after it gave me a very bad jump of positioning  visible when you have bootstrap animations on   Be sure to set the display to  block  before positioning  otherwise  dialog height   will be 0 and the modal will not be centered completely    function            use strict       function centerModal               this  css  display    block            var  dialog      this  find   modal-dialog            offset            window  height   -  dialog height      2          bottomMargin   parseInt  dialog css  marginBottom    10               Make sure you don t hide the top part of the modal w  a negative margin if it s longer than the screen height  and keep the margin equal to the bottom margin of the modal         if offset  lt  bottomMargin  offset   bottomMargin           dialog css  margin-top   offset                document  on  show bs modal     modal   centerModal         window  on  resize   function                  modal visible   each centerModal             jQuery
