Uncaught Error adding field - unknown field type select2

system.bonn@gmail.com

Hi!

I have got a full license of datatables editor and planing to use it in a laravel app in conjunction with yajra's laravel-datatables.

I have downloaded editor.select2.js and guessed, it needs to be put into the editors 'js' folder, which I did.

I have both:

<link rel="stylesheet "href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/select2/4.0.10/css/select2.min.css">
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/select2/4.0.10/js/select2.min.js"></script>

and changed my field to

                {
                  label: "Facility",
                  name:  "facility.name",
                  type:  "select2"
                }

but still "get Uncaught Error adding field - unknown field type select2"

Any ideas as to what I should check next?

thx & cu,
ada

Not sure how to do this in Laravel but did also include editor.select2.js with the rest of your JS includes like select2.min.js. editor.select2.js won't automatically be loaded.

Hi and thank you for your reply!

Yes indeed, it needs to be explicitly loaded like so:

<script src="{{ asset('plugins/editor/js/dataTables.editor.js') }}"></script>
<script src="{{ asset('plugins/editor/js/editor.bootstrap4.min.js') }}"></script>

<!-- Select2 -->
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/select2/4.0.10/js/select2.min.js"></script>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/select2/4.0.10/js/i18n/de.js"></script>
<script src="{{ asset('plugins/editor/js/editor.select2.js') }}"></script>

In this particular order.

Thx & cu,

Hi,

I want to ask a question. That is where did you get the editor.select2.js?

Thanks

It is available here to Editor licensees.
