Can't get v1.13.8 dropdown to work

[SoftCircuits]

I seem to be having trouble getting the component to work. Clicking the element does not cause the dropdown to be displayed.

So I tried to duplicate the issue on Code Pen and it doesn't work there either. The versions on this Code Pen are the same or extremely close to the ones I'm using. I am using Bootstrap 5.

Is anyone else having the same issue? Can anyone see if I missed something?

I started using the bootstrap-select yesterday and I had the same issue. For bootstrap 5, please use [v1.14.0-beta3]. You can download the files here https://github.com/snapappointments/bootstrap-select/tree/main/js
After I replaced the 1.13.8 files with this, it did work. But now I have problems changing the language. Maybe you can find this out for me

@Chakuza2006 Thanks. That does seem to support BS5. But it also seems buggy. In one case, it's doubling the items in the list.

I'm not sure if they are actively working on this component. The page at https://developer.snapappointments.com/bootstrap-select/ still shows version 1.13.14.

I´m using bootstrap@5.1.3 and Bootstrap-select v1.14.0-beta3. Both seem to work in my case. I´m using local references:

bootstrap-select.zip

mine says error this._popper = Popper.createPopper(referenceElement, this._menu, popperConfig) - does not like bootstrap dropdown.js, i have no idea how it is related. bs 5.1.3, bss 1.14.0-beta3 - fixed, needs bootstrap popper bundle

This is what I have and it is working, you need popperjs and perhaps you need latest bootstrap:

    "bootstrap": "5.2.0",
    "bootstrap-select": "^1.14.0-beta3",
    "@popperjs/core": "^2.11.5",
    "jquery": "3.6.0",

@thockamier Actually, I didn't need popper. I used the latest beta, which supports BS5, but it had some bugs. But someone else posted how they fixed those bugs and I did that and it seems to work now.

[thockamier]

Great! Glad it worked, I spent an hour playing around with it before I installed the latest beta and seems to work as well.

my other question is why do we nee bootstrap select. bootstrap seems to do the same thing at least in the new or old version. i am still not clear on that one

@dcarbunescu I have no idea who you are asking, but you don't have to use it. I use it because I need a multi-select drop down.
