React Select Label Issues


Topic: React Select Label Issues

Bart Cernel asked 5 years ago

Expected behavior the MDBSelect should display the label and 'selected' element on startup.

Actual behavior

Even using the exact code from the MDBSelect section of the website, whatever is typed in the 'selected' property of the MDBSelectInput does not actually do anything.

Resources (screenshots, code snippets etc.)

Code snippet from your website.

<div>
    <MDBSelect label="Example label">
      <MDBSelectInput selected="Choose your country" />
      <MDBSelectOptions>
        <MDBSelectOption disabled>Choose your country</MDBSelectOption>
        <MDBSelectOption value="1">USA</MDBSelectOption>
        <MDBSelectOption value="2">Germany</MDBSelectOption>
        <MDBSelectOption value="3">France</MDBSelectOption>
        <MDBSelectOption value="4">Poland</MDBSelectOption>
        <MDBSelectOption value="5">Japan</MDBSelectOption>
      </MDBSelectOptions>
    </MDBSelect>
  </div>

I put the exact same code in my solution but here is the result that is displayed. The 'selected' value of "Choose your country" does not show up.

MDBSelect from my solution

I have the Pro version of MDBootstrap and I can use the select, but the issue that I'm running into is a niche case anyway. I need the 'selected' value to be something that might not necessarily be in the select list. I have a select option that I want to be disabled, but because of that, I can't have it pre-selected in the MDBSelect. Because of that, I was going to just have default text in the MDBSelectInput but that did not work either.

Did you guys solve this? I have a similar issue here, when an option is selected the label disappears (instead of going to the top of the select. See: enter image description here Then, shen an option is chosen: enter image description here

Here is the code:

<div>
  <MDBSelect
    options={selectorOptions("Facility")}
    getValue={handleSelector}
    label={
      record.FacilityID === "" ? "Facility" : String(record.Facility.Name)
    }
  />
</div>

Thank you in advance.

I think it is solved in version 5. Do you have a pro account ?


caio.davi commented 5 years ago

Yes, I have a Pro account, but I'm using MDB React Pro 4.26 right now. Do you have a change log? I need to analyze how the upgrade would impact the project.

I think that docs are not ready yet, so if we will make it will be in our changelog. Have a nice day.
