Working for me

$('.select2').each(function() { 
     $(this).select2({ 
        dropdownParent: $(this).parent(),
        closeOnSelect: false
     });
});

Question 1:

From the documentation I can see this option:

closeOnSelect: false

This option is set to true by default, meaning the select box closes on select.

So, this is a simple call of the plugin:

$('#mySelect').select2({
    closeOnSelect: false
});

Question 2:

This question is a bit vague. It's a fairly simple task, but without going through the plugin's files and understanding its logic, it's difficult to know how to answer — and I'm not spending hours trying. This is something you'll have to try yourself, as I personally don't think you'll find anyone here willing to do that for free. It's asking a little bit much.

Take a look at its files and see if you can work out what is going on and try something. People will always be willing to help if you've tried. Good luck.
