Cannot create property '_uiSelectChoiceDisabled' on ...

[nehalist]

Bug description:

<ui-select multiple tagging tagging-label="(custom 'new' label)" ng-model="ctrl.multipleDemo.colors" theme="bootstrap" sortable="true" ng-disabled="ctrl.disabled" style="width: 300px;" title="Choose a color">
        <ui-select-match placeholder="Select colors...">{{$item}}</ui-select-match>
        <ui-select-choices repeat="color in availableColors | filter:$select.search">
          {{color}}
        </ui-select-choices>
      </ui-select>

Directly copied from the plunker example triggers "Cannot create property '_uiSelectChoiceDisabled' on string 'blue'" (respectively for all other colors in my array).

Additionally: the demo (http://angular-ui.github.io/ui-select/demo-tagging.html) triggers "Cannot read property 'length' of undefined" if you remove the existent tags.

Link to minimally-working plunker that reproduces the issue:

Works fine in Plunker. I have no idea why.

Version of Angular, UI-Select, and Bootstrap/Select2/Selectize CSS

Angular: 1.4.10

UI-Select: 0.18.0

Bootstrap/Select2/Selectize CSS (if applicable): ~3.3.6

I have a similar issue:

Update the tagging example version to 0.18.0 and click inside the first ui-select.
The following error shows up in the javascript console for every item:

TypeError: Cannot create property '_uiSelectChoiceDisabled' on string 'Green'

Versions:

bootstrap: 3.1.1

Reporting the same issue:
Angular 1.5.6
ui-select 0.18.0

[peterreisz]

Connected problem: ui-select modifies the data structure of the item, and it can travels back to the server. We have very strict server side validation and unknown properties are not allowed, so upgrading to version v0.18.0 broke several functions of our application.
It would be good to store the additional properties of the item somewhere else.

also encountered the issue with:

"angular": "~1.4.12",
"ui-select": "angular-ui-select#~0.18.0"

downgrading to 0.17.1 fixed the issue.

Same problem here. Thanks mcantrell for the tip.

0.17.1 - haven't this problem, but please fix 0.18+

This issue still reproduces with 0.17.1 for me. See plunker here:

Ui-select loop over object in 0.18.0.

<ui-select-choices repeat="item in items"
where items is something like :
var items=[];
..loop ..
items.push({key:value})

Then to have a nice display don't forget to print only the value :

<div data-ng-bind-html="item.key | highlight: $select.search"></div>

Tips to send only the selected value and not the whole JS object you can do something like this :

<ui-select-choices
repeat="item.key as value in items | filter: $select.search track by $index"
..others attributes..>
<div data-ng-bind-html="value.key | highlight: $select.search"></div>
</ui-select-choices>

Reporting same issue with: angular 1.4 + ui-select 0.18.0
Downgrading to 0.17.1 did not work for me

Console error occurs when selecting an element from the tag dropdown

[that1guy]

I've finally downgraded to 0.16.1 and everything is working as expected.

Angular 1.5.7 & ui-select 0.18.0

<ui-select multiple ng-model="ctrl.form.languages" theme="bootstrap">
    <ui-select-match placeholder="Valitse kielet...">{{'language.' + $item | translate}}</ui-select-match>
    <ui-select-choices repeat="lng in ctrl.availableLanguages">
        <div ng-bind-html="'language.' + lng | translate"></div>
    </ui-select-choices>
</ui-select>

Probably caused by change on
