“query function not defined for Select2 undefined error”

Question

Trying to use Select2 and getting this error on multiple item input/text field:

\"query function not defined for Select2 undefined error\"

Answer 1

if (typeof(opts.query) !== "function") {
    throw "query function not defined for Select2 " + opts.element.attr("id");
}

This is thrown becase query does not exist in options. Internally there is a check maintained which requires either of the following for parameters

• ajax
• tags
• data
• query

So you just need to provide one of these 4 options to select2 and it should work as expected.
