Topic: Select Floating Label Alignment Issue

brian03 priority asked 11 months ago


Expected behavior I expect the Select field label and success message to behave like an input field.

Actual behavior The Select successful validation has label overwriting field border. Please see the screen shot I included below. I would also like to know how to remove the validation message below the field. Please let me know if you need my full code file, I provided a snippet below.

Resources (screenshots, code snippets etc.) This is the second step from my Stepper:

<!-- Owner Information -->
            <div class="container mb-2">
              <div class="row row-cols-1 row-cols-sm-2 g-3">

Screen shot: Floating Label Display Issue


Kamila Pieńkowska staff answered 11 months ago


It's a bug with using validation and hidden first value at the same time. We will fix this as soon as possible.


brian03 priority commented 11 months ago

Thanks Kamila, I will remove hidden for now. Is there a way for me to remove the "Valid" text that shows below the Select?


Kamila Pieńkowska staff commented 11 months ago

You can provide value for 'valid feedback' that looks empty: data-mdb-valid-feedback=" "


brian03 priority commented 11 months ago

Do you have a date on when the bug with using validation and hidden first value at the same time will be resolved? I cannot go live with this issue. Thanks!


Kamila Pieńkowska staff commented 11 months ago

Unfortunately, we do not provide dates or content for future releases beforehand.


Kamila Pieńkowska staff commented 11 months ago

But as a workaround, you may want to substitute Select with Autocomplete. https://mdbootstrap.com/docs/standard/forms/autocomplete/#section-validation


brian03 priority commented 11 months ago

I got the Autocomplete to work except now the user can enter any data, they are not restricted to the values in the array. Other than custom JS is there a way to restrict the user to only select a value from the array?


Kamila Pieńkowska staff commented 11 months ago

No, custom JS is the only available solution.
