readOnly Not Working

[boblikesoup]

The readOnly: true fucntionality isn't preventing my keyboard from opening as per the documentation here #803

I've tried all the solutions here #110 and all over Stack Overflow and nothing is working.

For reference my code looks like this:
HTML (Jade)
select#select-category(name="categories[]" placeholder="Select a category...")
JS (Coffeescipt)
selectCategory = $('#select-category').selectize({
openOnFocus: true
hideSelected: false
closeAfterSelect: true
sortField: 'displayName'
readOnly: true
})

readOnline? What is it supposed to do?
Mmm, that's readOnly in your body.
Note that the patch #803 hasn't been integrated to the project, so you need to do that patch by hand on your copy of Selectize. In the current version, readOnly option is just ignored.

Derp, I didn't realize that was a manual patch. I'm using a meteor project and did a manual package overwrite. It didn't work (more likely my error than the patch).
Why hasn't this fix/feature been merged with Selectize?

[PhiLhoSoft]

Because the Selectize project is, somehow, on hold: the author no longer have time to answer to issues, to apply patches, etc. See #752
