Answer 5

1. Without seeing code, we can't help about alignment left to right or you maybe use.

float:right or you can use this CSS:

.lefttoright {
  position: relative;
  right: 5px;
}

2. me-auto pushing two items to the right.

Answer 6

You can use mr-auto and ml-auto for right and left alignment respectively in Bootstrap 5.

class="navbar-nav mr-auto mb-2 mb-lg-0"

Answer 7

me-auto means "margin end auto". Which is actually:

margin-right: auto

me = margin-right and ms = margin-left
