I want to hide some elements on the page that use the class 'd-md-block'. Because of the important on the class definition i can not use jquery hide/show functions.

Example, i want an element to be visible on desktop

<div id="test" class="d-none d-md-block">Wele User!</div>

The visibility works as expected. Then when a user clicks a button i want to toggle the visibility (this fails due to the d-md-none class)

 $('#btn').on('click',function(){$('#test').hide();});
   $('#anotherBtn').on('click',function(){$('#test').show();});

Any idea how to fix this ?

There is a simple work around for showing and hiding the element in bootstrap-4. As d-none class assigns display: none !imporatant property, you can simply add and remove this class via JavaScript to simulate the hide and show operations. Something like this:

$('#btn').on('click', function() {
  $('#test').removeClass('d-block')
});
$('#anotherBtn').on('click', function() {
  $('#test').addClass('d-block');
});

<button id='btn'>Hide</button>
<button id='anotherBtn'>Show</button>
