select2 - hiding the search box

Question

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

Misha Kobrin s answer work well for me So I have decided to explain it more  You want to hide the search box you can do it by jQuery   for example you have initialized select2 plugin on a drop down having id audience   element select     audience     id or class   element select  select2  close   parent   hide      The example works on all devices on which select2 works
