How to make select2 work with jquery.validation plugin?

Question

I\'m trying to validate select2 field using jquey.validation plugin but nothing happens.

I want to make select required field.

I\'m using this custom validat

Answer 1

This doesn't work in Bootstrap Validator() because the validator includes all the inputs in the form. This means it will validate the input search field of the select2 plugin. which will interfere with the multiselect validation

To fix this simply go to the validator.js Add the select2 input search class .select2-search__field to the ignore list:

Validator.INPUT_SELECTOR = ':input:not([type="submit"], button, .select2-search__field):enabled:visible'
