select2 - hiding the search box
For my more significant selects, the search box in Select2 is wonderful. However, in one instance, I have a simple selection of 4 hard-coded choices. In this case, the search box is superfluous and looks a little silly being present. Is it possible to hide it somehow? I took a look through the documentation online and couldn't find any options for this in the constructor.
I could, of course, just use a regular HTML select, but for consistency, I'd like to use Select2 if possible.
Answer
See this thread https://github.com/ivaynberg/select2/issues/489, you can hide the search box by setting minimumResultsForSearch to a negative value.
$('select').select2({
minimumResultsForSearch: -1
});
