Maintained by CodeReviveHQ

This fork keeps Selectize available as @coderevivehq/selectize.

Security patches are our highest priority. We also review bug reports, feature requests, and suggestions from the community.

Selectize is an extensible jQuery custom select control. It supports tagging, autocomplete, contact lists, country selectors, and other rich input experiences.

The project is based on the original Selectize repository. We are grateful to its authors and contributors.

Features

• Smart Option Searching / Ranking Options are efficiently scored and sorted on-the-fly (using sifter). Want to search for an item's title and description? No problem.
• Caret between items Order matters sometimes. Use the ← and → arrow keys to move between selected items.
• Select & delete multiple items at once Hold down option on Mac or ctrl on Windows to select more than one item to delete.
• Díåcritîçs supported Great for international environments.
• Item creation Allow users to create items on the fly (async saving is supported; the control locks until the callback is fired).
• Remote data loading For when you have thousands of options and want them provided by the server as the user types.
• Clean API & code Interface with it and make modifications easily. Pull requests are always welcome!
• Extensible Plugin API for developing custom features (uses microplugin).
• Touch Support Plays nice with iOS 5+ devices.

Dependencies

• jquery (1.7 and greater), as peer dependency
  • Note: it is installed automatically in development, or in projects using NPM 1 or 2. When using NPM from version 3 on, just a warning is thrown and the user needs to manually install an explicit version in their own project (e.g. npm install --save [email protected]).

Optional:

• jquery-ui (required by drag_drop plugin)

Manual installation

If you're looking to get started with minimal fuss, include selectize.min.js (bundles Sifter and Microplugin dependencies – also available un-minified for debugging, just remove the .min part) and css/selectize.default.css.
