Select2 is not displaying correctly as expected

I followed the instructions on to set up a Select2 select. However, I noticed that my Select2 select doesn't look great. Here is how it currently appears: https://i.sstatic.net/SIv7L.png

When I don't transform it with jQuery $('#users').select2(); into a Select2 select, it just looks like a normal select input. This is what my source code looks like so far:

@extends('layouts.dashboard')

@section('content')
    <script src="https://cdn.datatables.net/1.10.19/js/jquery.dataTables.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
    <script src="https://cdn.datatables.net/1.10.19/js/dataTables.bootstrap.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
    <script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/select2/4.0.6-rc.0/js/select2.min.js"></script>

    <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdn.datatables.net/1.10.19/css/dataTables.bootstrap.min.css">
    <link href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/select2/4.0.6-rc.0/css/select2.min.css" rel="stylesheet" />

    <div class="page-content-wrapper">
        <!-- BEGIN CONTENT BODY -->
        <div class="page-content" style="min-height: 1095px;">
            ...
            ... (remaining content has been omitted for brevity)
            ...
        </div>
    </div>
@endsection

Though I'm not getting any errors in the console and I am using the bootstrap CSS, my Select2 select still looks off. Can someone please assist me in identifying the issue and resolving it?

Thank you in advance!

Answer №1

It looks like your code is correct.

You mentioned that if you don't use jQuery $('#users').select2(); to transform it into a Select2 select, it appears as a normal select...

However, upon reviewing your code (with jQuery included), I didn't see the following:

$( document ).ready(function() {
    $('#users').select2();
});

Are you initiating the select => select2 conversion at the end of your page?

To improve the design, you could simply add a style="width:300px", or modify the Select2 design to resemble other similar libraries like "chosen". Here's an example: http://jsfiddle.net/sebmade/HRkBq/
