Topic: Chip select/delete doesn't work
Hello, I am trying to use your Chip feature but its not working for me. I created a simple page to test chip but it doesn't work. I imported the required files as well. Adding works fine, but the others are not working. Tried other versions but I see no changes. I hope we can find a solution as possible as we can.
$('.chips').on('chip.add', function(e, chip){ console.log('add'); });
$('.chips').on('chip.delete', function(e, chip){ console.log('delete'); });
$('.chips').on('chip.select', function(e, chip){ console.log('select'); });
Here is my HTML code:
<div class="chips chips-placeholder" > <div class="chip"><i class="close fa fa-times"></i></div> </div>
Functions, that you attached are just printing in console something, when you add/delete/select tag/chip (call it as you want). To initialize chips/tags you should add this code to your script:
$('.chips-placeholder').materialChip({
placeholder: 'Enter a tag',
secondaryPlaceholder: '+Tag',
});
Your functions are called, when chip was added/deleted/selected as I wrote above, so instead of for example console.log('delete');you can put any code, for example you can change background-color of your document, font color, anything you want. Hope it helped :)

I added this code into my code, but it didn't change anything. I noticed something important right now, when I copy a chip element from chips div to outside of that div, the delete button works fine, but when I put it back to the chips div, the delete function doesn't work. There might be a problem between 'chips' and 'chip' class. Do you have any idea about that?

Are you sure, that you are using Pro package? I copied your code to my editor, did what I said above and it worked. I've got an idea, maybe do a snippet with your problem, then paste it here? https://mdbootstrap.com/snippets here you can do it

Look on this snippet, I think it could help https://mdbootstrap.com/snippets/jquery/piotr-glejzer/716622

Hey, I tried to reproduce my error in the snippet but everything works fine. https://mdbootstrap.com/snippets/jquery/ozankyk/716550 . This is my page and in my project, delete function is not working for the first two 'chips', but the other colored 'chip's can delete easily.

There's no code in this snippet.

This is the solution for my answer, thanks for help.
$('.chips').on('chip.add', function(e, chips){ a = document.getElementsByClassName('close'); for (let item of a) { if(item.type != "button") item.setAttribute("onclick", "delete_chip(this)"); } });
function delete_chip(item){ console.log('deleting') item.parentNode.remove() }
