[attributes] How can I disable selected attribute from select2() dropdown Jquery?

I know how to enable the selected attribute from dropdown; I can use this code :

$('select').select2();

but my problem is how to disable it ? thx

As per select2 documentation: Click Here

If you wants to disable select2 then use this approach:

$(".js-example-disabled").prop("disabled", true);

If you wants to enable a disabled select2 box use this approach:

$(".js-example-disabled").prop("disabled", false);

To disable the complete select2 box, that is no deletion of already selected values and no new insertion, use:

$("id-select2").prop("disabled", true);

where id-select2 is the unique id of select2. you can also use any particular class if defined to address the dropdown.

I'm disabling select2 with:

$('select').select2("enable",false);

And enabling it with

$('select').select2("enable");

$('select').select2('enable',false);

This works for me.

The below code also works fine for Select2 3.x

For Enable Select Box:

$('#foo').select2('enable');

For Disable Select Box:

$('#foo').select2('disable');

As the question seems unclear, I'm sorry if this answer is not directly related to the original intent.

For those using Select2 version 4+ and according to official plugin documentation, .select2("enable")is not the way to go anymore for disabling the select box (not a single option of it). It will even be completely removed from version 4.1 onward.

Quoted directy from the documentation (see https://select2.org/upgrading/migrating-from-35#select2-enable):

Select2 will respect the disabled property of the underlying select element. In order to enable or disable Select2, you should call .prop('disabled', true/false) on the element. Support for the old methods will be completely removed in Select2 4.1.

So in the previous answer's example, it should be: $('select').prop(disabled,true);

As of Select2 4.1, they've removed support for .enable

$("select").prop("disabled", true); // instead of $("select").enable(false);

From: https://select2.org/upgrading/migrating-from-35

I'm disable on value:

<option disabled="disabled">value</option>

In selec2 site you can see options. There is "disabled" option for api. You can use like :

$('#foo').select2({
    disabled: true
});

The right way for Select2 3.x is:

$('select').select2("enable", false)

This works fine.

if you want to disable the values of the dropdown

$('select option:not(selected)').prop('disabled', true);

$('select').prop('disabled', true);
