Twitter bootstrap hide element on small devices

Question

I have this code:

<footer class="row">
  <nav class="col-sm-3">
    <ul class="list-unstyled">
      <li>Text 1</li>
      <li>Text 2</li>
      <li>Text 3</li>
    </ul>
  </nav>
  <nav class="col-sm-3">
    <ul class="list-unstyled">
      <li>Text 4</li>
      <li>Text 5</li>
      <li>Text 6</li>
    </ul>
  </nav>
  <nav class="col-sm-3">
    <ul class="list-unstyled">
      <li>Text 7</li>
      <li>Text 8</li>
      <li>Text 9</li>
    </ul>
  </nav>
  <nav class="col-sm-3">
    <ul class="list-unstyled">
      <li>Text 10</li>
      <li>Text 11</li>
      <li>Text 12</li>
    </ul>
  </nav>
</footer>

Four blocks with some texts inside. They are equal in width, I've set col-sm-3 to all of them and what I want to do is to hide the last nav on extra small devices. I've tried to use hidden-xs on that nav and it hides it, but in the same time I want the other blocks to expand (change class from col-sm-3 to col-sm-4) col-sm-4 X 3 = 12.

Any solution?

On small device : 4 columns x 3 (= 12) ==> col-sm-3

On extra small : 3 columns x 4 (= 12) ==> col-xs-4

 <footer class="row">
        <nav class="col-xs-4 col-sm-3">
            <ul class="list-unstyled">
            <li>Text 1</li>
            <li>Text 2</li>
            <li>Text 3</li>
            </ul>
        </nav>
        <nav class="col-xs-4 col-sm-3">
            <ul class="list-unstyled">
            <li>Text 4</li>
            <li>Text 5</li>
            <li>Text 6</li>
            </ul>
        </nav>
        <nav class="col-xs-4 col-sm-3">
            <ul class="list-unstyled">
            <li>Text 7</li>
            <li>Text 8</li>
            <li>Text 9</li>
            </ul>
        </nav>
        <nav class="hidden-xs col-sm-3">
            <ul class="list-unstyled">
            <li>Text 10</li>
            <li>Text 11</li>
            <li>Text 12</li>
            </ul>
        </nav>
    </footer>

As you say, hidden-xs is not enough, you have to combine xs and sm class.

Here is links to the official doc about available responsive classes and about the grid system.

Have in head :

• 1 row = 12 cols
• For XtraSmall device : col-xs-__
  
• For SMall device : col-sm-__
  
• For MeDium Device: col-md-__
  
• For LarGe Device : col-lg-__
  
• Make visible only (hidden on other) : visible-md (just visible in medium [not in lg xs or sm])
• Make hidden only (visible on other) : hidden-xs (just hidden in XtraSmall)
