X-Editable and Bootstrap 4

Question

Previously I have implemented inline editing with X-Editable and Bootstrap 3. With Bootstrap 4 it no longer seems to work. Check out the JsFiddle here.

If I define a simple popup like this:

<div style="margin: 150px">
     <a href="#" class="comment" data-name="comment" data-type="text" data-pk="@item.Id" data-url="/" data-title="Enter comment">comment</a>
</div>

<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
        $('.comment').editable();
    });
</script>

It works fine in BS3 but as soon as I switch to BS4 it no longer works giving the error:

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'addClass' of undefined
at Popup.show (bootstrap-editable.js:1091)
at Editable.show (bootstrap-editable.js:1802)
at Editable.toggle (bootstrap-editable.js:1824)
at Editable.<anonymous> (bootstrap-editable.js:1547)
at HTMLAnchorElement.e (jquery-3.2.1.slim.min.js:2)

In the console.

What am I doing wrong? Should I be using a different library/fork?

Just to help anyone else who has this problem, here is how I dealt with it. I switched to inline mode:

 $(document).ready(function() {
        $('.comment').editable({
            mode: 'inline',
        });
        $('.hours').editable({
            mode: 'inline',
            type: 'number',
            step: '1.00',
            min: '0.00',
            max: '24'
        });
    });

This works OK but the buttons don't render any images due to glyphicons no longer being supported.

I added font-awesome and then used the following css to get the icons back:

        .glyphicon-ok:before {
        content: "\f00c";
    }
    .glyphicon-remove:before {
        content: "\f00d";
    }
    .glyphicon {
        display: inline-block;
        font: normal normal normal 14px/1 FontAwesome;
        font-size: inherit;
        text-rendering: auto;
        -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;
        -moz-osx-font-smoothing: grayscale;
    }

All seems to work as before. Thanks to Sadhu for pointing me in the right direction.
