I am trying to put two navbar elements to the end of the navbar in Bootstrap 5 but it’s not working

I’ve tried ms-auto with a div encapsulated around the log in and sign up elements but that didn’t work. I’ve also tried float and text but that didn’t work either.

Try this:

@media (min-width: 576px) {
  .navbar-nav {
    width: 100%;
  }
  #navbarPractice>div a.login {
    margin-left: auto;
  }
}

<nav class="navbar navbar-dark bg-dark navbar-expand-sm">
  <a class="navbar-brand" href="">Navbar</a>
  <button class="navbar-toggler" type="button" data-bs-toggle="collapse" data-bs-target="#navbarPractice" aria-controls="navbarPractice" aria-expanded="false" aria-label="Toggle navigation">
        <span class="navbar-toggler-icon"></span>
      </button>
  <div class="collapse navbar-collapse" id="navbarPractice">
    <div class="navbar-nav">
      <a class="nav-link active" aria-current="page" href="">Home</a>
      <a class="nav-link" href="">About</a>
      <a class="nav-link" href="">Support</a>
      <a class="nav-link login" href="">Log In</a>
      <a class="nav-link" href="">Sign Up</a>
    </div>

Use the w-100 or flex-fill class to stretch the navbar-nav element. Without that you have no space to implement ms-auto, which then works as expected. You’d use ms-sm-auto to only apply margin above the mobile breakpoint.

  </button>
  
  <div class="collapse navbar-collapse" id="navbarPractice">

    </div>

</nav>
