.hide should not be used on .modal in Bootstrap v3.

In Bootstrap v3, modals are hidden by default by virtue of the .modal class. There is no need to add .hide to a .modal, and in fact adding .hide will interfere with proper showing of the modal, so it should not be done.

.modal.hide was previously required in old Bootstrap v2, but this is no longer the case in Bootstrap v3. The markup required for modals has changed significantly between v2 and v3, and modal examples for Bootstrap v2 should therefore not be followed when using Bootstrap v3.

Wrong:

<div class="modal hide">
  ...
</div>

Right:

<div class="modal fade">
  ...
</div>

Also Right:

<!--Modal without show/hide animation-->
<div class="modal">
  ...
</div>
