            );
          }
        
        
    

Placement

You can set position of every notification using position property.

Select horizontal / vertical alignment

Current position: top-right
        
            
          import React, { useRef } from 'react';
          import { MDBToast, MDBContainer, MDBBtn } from 'mdb-react-ui-kit';

          export default function App() {
            const placementExample = useRef(null);

            return (
              <MDBContainer className='text-center'>
                <MDBBtn ref={placementExample}>Show!</MDBBtn>
                <MDBToast
                  color='info'
                  autohide
                  position='top-right'
                  delay={2000}
                  appendToBody
                  triggerRef={placementExample}
                  headerContent={
                    <>
                      <strong className='me-auto'>MDBootstrap</strong>
                      <small>11 mins ago</small>
                    </>
                  }
                  bodyContent='Placement toast.'
                />
              </MDBContainer>
            );
          }
        
        
    

Offset

You can also change offset of every notification using offset property.

        
            
          import React, { useRef } from 'react';
          import { MDBToast, MDBBtn } from 'mdb-react-ui-kit';

          export default function App() {
            const triggerOffset = useRef(null);
            
            return (
              <>
                <MDBBtn className='mb-5' ref={triggerOffset}>
                  Show alert with offset!
                </MDBBtn>

                <MDBToast
                  color='info'
                  autohide
                  offset={50}
                  position='top-right'
                  delay={3000}
                  triggerRef={triggerOffset}
                  headerContent={
                    <>
                      <strong className='me-auto'>MDBootstrap</strong>
                      <small>11 mins ago</small>
                    </>
                  }
                  bodyContent='Offset: 50'
                />
              </>
            );
          }
        
        
    

Container

You can display notification anywhere. Just put your toast in your target element and fill containerRef property with a reference to the parent.

        
            
          import React, { useRef } from 'react';
          import { MDBToast, MDBBtn } from 'mdb-react-ui-kit';

          export default function App() {
            const triggerContainer = useRef(null);
            const wrapperRef = useRef(null);
            
            return (
              <div className='container text-center' ref={wrapperRef}>
                <MDBBtn className='mb-5' ref={triggerContainer}>
                  Show alert below!
                </MDBBtn>

                <MDBToast
                  autohide
                  position='top-right'
                  delay={3000}
                  triggerRef={triggerContainer}
                  containerRef={wrapperRef}
                  headerContent={
                    <>
                      <strong className='me-auto'>MDBootstrap</strong>
                      <small>11 mins ago</small>
                    </>
                  }
                  bodyContent='Toast inside another element!'
                />
              </div>
            );
          }
        
        
    

Stacking

You can turn on/off stacking your notifications using stacking property.

        
            
          import React, { useState } from 'react';
          import { MDBToast, MDBBtn } from 'mdb-react-ui-kit';

          export default function App() {
            const [stackingToasts, setStackingToasts] = useState<Array<Record<string, any>>>([]);
            const [stackingColor, setStackingColor] = useState(0);
          
            const handleClick = () => {
              const colors = ['primary', 'warning', 'info', 'success', 'secondary', 'danger', 'light'];
