CMB Field Type: Select2

Description

Select2 field type for CMB2.

Running an older version of CMB? Check the previous releases.

This plugin gives you two CMB field types based on the Select2 script:

  1. The pw_select field acts much like the default select field. However, it adds typeahead-style search allowing you to quickly make a selection from a large list
  2. The pw_multiselect field allows you to select multiple values with typeahead-style search. The values can be dragged and dropped to reorder

Installation

You can install this field type as you would a WordPress plugin:

  1. Download the plugin
  2. Place the plugin folder in your /wp-content/plugins/ directory
  3. Activate the plugin in the Plugin dashboard

Alternatively, you can place the plugin folder in with your theme/plugin. After you call CMB:

require_once 'init.php';

Add another line to include the cmb-field-select2.php file. Something like:

require_once 'cmb-field-select2/cmb-field-select2.php';
