Advanced Options

Single Select

Loading Array Data

Select2 provides a way to load the data from a local array. You can provide initial selections with array data by providing the option tag for the selected values, similar to how it would be done for a standard select.

Loading Remote Data

Select2 comes with AJAX support built in, using jQuery's AJAX methods. In this example, we can search for repositories using GitHub's API.

Diacritics support

Select2's default matcher will ignore diacritics, making it easier for users to filter results in international selects. Type "aero" into the select below.

Templating

Various display options of the Select2 component can be changed: You can access the <option> element (or <optgroup>) and any attributes on those elements using .element. Templating is primarily controlled by the templateResult and templateSelection options.

Multiple Select

Customizing How Results Are Matched

Unlike other dropdowns on this page, this one matches options only if the term appears in the beginning of the string as opposed to anywhere: This custom matcher uses a compatibility module that is only bundled in the full version of Select2. You also have the option of using a more complex matcher.

RTL support With MultiSelect

Select2 will work on RTL websites if the dir attribute is set on the <select> or any parents of it. You can also initialize Select2 with dir: "rtl" set.

Diacritics support

Select2's default matcher will ignore diacritics, making it easier for users to filter results in international selects. Type "aero" into the select below.

Template support With Multiselect

Select2 supports custom themes using the theme option so you can style Select2 to match the rest of your application. These are using the classic theme, which matches the old look of Select2.
