Why does the modal window not close when clicking on a link in it?

Question

JavaScript

There is a simple function

$(document).ready(function(){
  $('#menu-item-18 > a').click(function(){
    $('#mobile-menu-full').modal('hide');
  }); 
});

The idea is this: there is a modal window that works like a menu block (on the phone). When you click on a link in this modal window, it should close. But it doesn't close. What could be the problem?

Answer 1

everything should work. mb made a mistake somewhere in the classes or id

ps but in general the bootstrap has an attribute to close the modal data-dismiss="modal"
add it to the link and you won't have to write js code
