Heres a solution  without javascript initialization    I couldn t find an example without initializing your modal with javascript      myModal   modal  show    so heres a suggestion on how you could implement it without javascript delay on page load    Edit your modal container div with class and style      lt div class  modal in  id  MyModal  tabindex  -1  role  dialog  style  display  block  padding-right  17px   gt    Edit your body with class and style    lt body class  modal-open  style  padding-right 17px   gt  Add modal-backdrop div   lt div class  modal-backdrop in  gt  lt  div gt  Add script    document  ready function            body   css  padding-right    0px           body   removeClass  modal-open            modal-backdrop   remove             MyModal   modal  show          What will happen is that the html for your modal will be loaded on page load without any javascript   no delay   At this point you can t close the modal  so that is why we have the document ready script  to load the modal properly when everything is loaded  We will actually remove the custom code and then initialize the modal   again   with the  modal  show

You don t need javascript to show modal  The simplest way is replace  hide  by  in   class  modal fade hide    so  class  modal fade in    and you need add onclick        modal   hide    on button close   PS  I think the best way is add jQuery script       modal   modal  show

I recently needed to launch a Bootstrap 5 modal without jQuery and not with a button click  eg  on page load  using Django messages  This is how I did it  Template HTML  lt div class  quot modal quot  id  quot notification quot  gt     lt div class  quot modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered quot  gt       lt div class  quot modal-content quot  gt         lt div class  quot modal-header quot  gt           lt h5 class  quot modal-title quot  gt Notification  lt  h5 gt           lt button type  quot button quot  class  quot btn-close quot                  data-bs-dismiss  quot modal quot  aria-label  quot Close quot  gt  lt  button gt         lt  div gt         lt div class  quot modal-body quot  gt             for m in messages                 m               endfor           lt  div gt         lt div class  quot modal-footer justify-content-between quot  gt           lt a class  quot float-none btn btn-secondary quot  href  quot    url  some view     quot             type  quot button quot  gt            Link Button A          lt  a gt           lt button type  quot button quot  class  quot btn btn-primary quot                  data-bs-dismiss  quot modal quot  gt            Link Button B          lt  button gt         lt  div gt       lt  div gt     lt  div gt   lt  div gt   JS in a file or in the template    block javascript         block super       lt script gt      var test modal   new bootstrap Modal        document getElementById  notification             test modal show      lt  script gt     endblock javascript     This method will work without the Django template  just use the HTML and put the JS in a file or script elements that loads after the Bootstrap JS before the end of the body element

Update 2020 - Bootstrap 4  The modal markup has changed slightly for Bootstrap 4  Here s how you can open the modal on page load  and optionally delay display of the modal       window  on  load  function        var delayMs   1500     delay in milliseconds      setTimeout function                myModal   modal  show           delayMs             lt div class  modal fade  id  myModal  gt         lt div class  modal-dialog modal-lg modal-dialog-centered  role  document  gt               lt div class  modal-content  gt                   lt div class  modal-header  gt                       lt h4 class  modal-title  gt My Modal lt  h4 gt                       lt button type  button  class  close  data-dismiss  modal  aria-label  Close  gt                           lt span aria-hidden  true  gt    lt  span gt                       lt  button gt                   lt  div gt                   lt div class  modal-body  gt                                           lt  div gt                   lt div class  modal-footer  gt                       lt button type  button  class  btn btn-secondary mx-auto  data-dismiss  modal  gt Close lt  button gt                   lt  div gt               lt  div gt         lt  div gt   lt  div gt    Demo on Codeply

In order to avoid bootstrap being overruled and loosing it  s funcionality  simply create a regular launch button  provide it with an Id  and  click it  using jquery  like so  The launch button    lt button type  button  id  btnAnouncement  class  btn btn-primary  data-toggle  modal  data-target   modalAnouncement  gt    See what  s new   lt  button gt    The jQuery trigger     document  ready function            btnAnouncement   click         Hope it helps  Cheers

In bootstrap 3 you just need to initialise the modal through js and if in the moment of the page load the modal markup is in the page the modal will show up   In case you want to prevent this  use the option show  false where you initialise the modal  Something like this      modal   modal   show  false

Like others have mentioned  create your modal with display block   lt div class  modal in  tabindex  -1  role  dialog  style  display block  gt        Place the backdrop anywhere on your page  it does not necesarily need to be at the bottom of the page   lt div class  modal-backdrop fade show  gt  lt  div gt     Then  to be able to close the dialog again  add this   lt script gt         button data-dismiss modal    click function                  modal in   removeClass  in   addClass  fade   hide                modal-backdrop   remove             lt  script gt    Hope this helps

You may want to keep jquery js deferred for faster page load  However  if jquery js is deferred the   window  load may not work  Then you may try  setTimeout function       myModal   modal  show     3000    it will popup your modal after page is completely loaded  including jquery

User · Answer

Just wrap the modal you want to call on page load inside a jQuery load event on the head section of your document and it should popup  like so  JS  lt script type  quot text javascript quot  gt        window  on  load   function                 myModal   modal  show             lt  script gt   HTML  lt div class  quot modal hide fade quot  id  quot myModal quot  gt       lt div class  quot modal-header quot  gt           lt a class  quot close quot  data-dismiss  quot modal quot  gt    lt  a gt           lt h3 gt Modal header lt  h3 gt       lt  div gt       lt div class  quot modal-body quot  gt           lt p gt One fine body    lt  p gt       lt  div gt       lt div class  quot modal-footer quot  gt           lt a href  quot   quot  class  quot btn quot  gt Close lt  a gt           lt a href  quot   quot  class  quot btn btn-primary quot  gt Save changes lt  a gt       lt  div gt   lt  div gt   You can still call the modal within your page with by calling it with a link like so   lt a class  quot btn quot  data-toggle  quot modal quot  href  quot  myModal quot  gt Launch Modal lt  a gt

In my case adding jQuery to display the modal didn t work     document  ready function             myModal   modal  show          Which seemed to be because the modal had attribute aria-hidden  true     lt div class  modal fade  aria-hidden  true  id  myModal  tabindex  -1  role  dialog  aria-labelledby  myModalLabel  gt    Removing that attribute was needed as well as the jQuery above    lt div class  modal fade  id  myModal  tabindex  -1  role  dialog  aria-labelledby  myModalLabel  gt    Note that I tried changing the modal classes from modal fade to modal fade in  and that didn t work  Also  changing the classes from modal fade to modal show stopped the modal from being able to be closed

You can activate the modal without writing any JavaScript simply via data attributes   The option  show  set to true shows the modal when initialized    lt div class  modal fade  tabindex  -1  role  dialog  data-show  true  gt  lt  div gt
