Hi @rarestoma & @rpenav91 ,
I have the same problem with a multiple option.

Select2 has option - Dynamic option creation which is also works with multiple option

For example code:

<select class="form-control select optional select-tags select2-hidden-accessible" multiple="multiple" name="item[tags][]" id="item_tags" data-select2-id="item_tags" tabindex="-1" aria-hidden="true">
  <option value="tag_1" data-select2-id="8">tag_1</option>
  <option value="tag_2" data-select2-id="9">tag_2</option>
  <option value="tag_3" data-select2-id="10">tag_3</option>
</select>

By running initializer:
$(".select-tags").select2({ tags: true });

it should works like shown in Select2 example. Using argon it is not working.

Hi @lukaszmarcinkowski,

Thank you for working with our products.

Did you try our tags input plugin available here: https://demos.creative-tim.com/argon-dashboard-pro/docs/plugins/tags.html? I think it may help you.

Thank you,

Hi @rarestoma

Yes i found tags plugin for input but it has only 50% functionality I've need to.
I would like to add tags by choose from select (from existing list) or create a new one by typing.

Is is possible to fix it?

Regards

@rarestoma is it possible to an answer for this issue? I am waiting for this more than 3 months...

Hi @lukaszmarcinkowski,

Sorry for my late response. We added it to the 'to do' list for the next update.

Another solution would be the multiple dropdowns available here: https://demos.creative-tim.com/argon-dashboard-pro/docs/plugins/dropdown.html.

You can also find more examples here: https://select2.org/placeholders.

Please let me know if it works.

Thank you,

Hi @rarestoma

Unfortunately, it doesn't work for me, because I need dynamic option creation which can be typed by the user or chosen from the dropdown list (excellent will be with the search option).

So it seems I need to wait for the update. When I can expect it to be available?

Hi @lukaszmarcinkowski,

We are currently working on a new update and we hope we will release it in about 1 month.

Thank you,

Using Django the form-control removes the options made in the model.

When will this fix be available? I can see that this tread is very old!! Not very promising for a PRO subscription
