You can add the collapse component to the links like this    lt ul class  quot navbar-nav mr-auto quot  gt        lt li class  quot nav-item active quot  gt            lt a class  quot nav-link quot  href  quot  home quot  data-toggle  quot collapse quot  data-target  quot  navbar-collapse show quot  gt Home  lt span class  quot sr-only quot  gt  current  lt  span gt  lt  a gt        lt  li gt        lt li class  quot nav-item quot  gt            lt a class  quot nav-link quot  href  quot  about-us quot  data-toggle  quot collapse quot  data-target  quot  navbar-collapse show quot  gt About lt  a gt        lt  li gt        lt li class  quot nav-item quot  gt            lt a class  quot nav-link quot  href  quot  pricing quot  data-toggle  quot collapse quot  data-target  quot  navbar-collapse show quot  gt Pricing lt  a gt        lt  li gt    lt  ul gt   BS3 demo using  data-toggle  method Or   perhaps a better way  use jQuery like this       navbar-nav gt li gt a   on  click   function            navbar-collapse   collapse  hide         BS3 demo using jQuery method  Update 2019 - Bootstrap 4 The navbar has changed  but the  quot close after click quot  method is still the same  BS4 demo jQuery method BS4 demo data-toggle method  Update 2021 - Bootstrap 5  beta  Use javascript to add a click event listener on the menu items to close the Collapse navbar   const navLinks   document querySelectorAll   nav-item   const menuToggle   document getElementById  navbarSupportedContent   const bsCollapse   new bootstrap Collapse menuToggle  navLinks forEach  l    gt        l addEventListener  click        gt    bsCollapse toggle          BS5 demo javascript method Or  Use the data-bs-toggle and data-bs-target data attributes in the markup on each link to toggle the Collapse navbar     lt nav class  quot navbar navbar-expand-lg navbar-light bg-light quot  gt       lt div class  quot container quot  gt           lt a class  quot navbar-brand quot  href  quot   quot  gt Navbar lt  a gt           lt button class  quot navbar-toggler quot  type  quot button quot  data-bs-toggle  quot collapse quot  data-bs-target  quot  navbarSupportedContent quot  aria-controls  quot navbarSupportedContent quot  aria-expanded  quot false quot  aria-label  quot Toggle navigation quot  gt               lt span class  quot navbar-toggler-icon quot  gt  lt  span gt           lt  button gt           lt div class  quot collapse navbar-collapse quot  id  quot navbarSupportedContent quot  gt               lt ul class  quot navbar-nav me-auto quot  gt                   lt li class  quot nav-item active quot  gt                       lt a class  quot nav-link quot  href  quot   quot  data-bs-toggle  quot collapse quot  data-bs-target  quot  navbar-collapse show quot  gt Home lt  a gt                   lt  li gt                   lt li class  quot nav-item quot  gt                       lt a class  quot nav-link quot  href  quot   quot  data-bs-toggle  quot collapse quot  data-bs-target  quot  navbar-collapse show quot  gt Link lt  a gt                   lt  li gt                   lt li class  quot nav-item quot  gt                       lt a class  quot nav-link disabled quot  href  quot   quot  data-bs-toggle  quot collapse quot  data-bs-target  quot  navbar-collapse show quot  gt Disabled lt  a gt                   lt  li gt               lt  ul gt               lt form class  quot d-flex my-2 my-lg-0 quot  gt                   lt input class  quot form-control me-sm-2 quot  type  quot search quot  placeholder  quot Search quot  aria-label  quot Search quot  gt                   lt button class  quot btn btn-outline-success my-2 my-sm-0 quot  type  quot submit quot  gt Search lt  button gt               lt  form gt           lt  div gt       lt  div gt   lt  nav gt   BS5 demo data-attributes method

I am using ANGULAR and since it gave me problems the routerLink just add the data-toggle and target in the li tag     or use jquery like  ZimSystem    x000D   x000D   lt div class  collapse navbar-collapse  id  navbarSupportedContent  gt  x000D         lt ul class  navbar-nav mr-auto  gt  x000D           lt li class  nav-item  data-toggle  collapse  data-target   navbar-collapse show  gt  x000D             lt a class  nav-link  routerLink   inicio  routerLinkActive  active   gt Inicio lt  a gt  x000D           lt  li gt  x000D         lt  ul gt  x000D   lt  div gt  x000D   x000D   x000D
