The Multiselect plugin replaces native select elements with a modal containing checkboxes or radio buttons.
By default, just add the class multiselect and it will do its magic. You can turn any select into a multiselct using javascript:
$("#mySelect").multiselect(options);
You can install as a bower package:
bower install bootstrap-modalselect
Heads Up! The bower package name of the package is bootstrap-modalselect
because bootstrap-multiselect was taken.
The Multiselect plugin allows you to configure options via data attributes or directly via javascript
<select class="form-control multiselect" data-list="3" data-target="#exampleTarget" multiple>
| Name | type | default | description |
|---|---|---|---|
| list | int | 1 | The number items that are listed in the multiselect |
| target | string | body | The target for the location of the generated modal. By default, the modal is appended the the body tag. |
