Auto submit for custom SELECT styling

Anonymous

#258330

Hi,
I’m using a custom styling for the select elements (hiding the actual select and generating a custom layout which changes the selected value of the original select form field).

How can I initialize the form correctly to then submit it. Only running “submit()” on the form doesn’t work.

Best,
Marc

It seems to be working with jQuery’s .change(), like:
jQuery('.sf-input-select').change();

I would normally recommend using Select2 to do that sort of thing (as it is the most commonly used script for WordPress). I can refer you to a post on how to do that. Our form supports Select2 natively (the easiest way is to make a dropdown box a combobox, but there is an alternate method to do it without setting them as comboboxes).

To submit the form you would use:

$('.searchandfilter').submit()
