How to clear a selected value in Selectize.js dropdown?

I have a selectize.js dropdown and I have to clear the selected value .

I have tried this (as suggested in another question):

var selectize = $("#optionNetFlow")[0].selectize;
selectize.clear();

But it gives the following error:

enter image description here


When I change it to this:

var selectize = $("#optionNetFlow").selectize;
selectize.clear();

I gives this error:

enter image description here


What I am doing wrong here?

All other answers either clear a single selectize or need a specific reference to the selectize in the moment of it's creation.

The solution below, on the other hand, works for any number of selectize elements you have inside any form; you just need to specify the desired form:

$('form').find('.selectized').each(function(index, element) { element.selectize && element.selectize.clear() })

The rationale is that Selectize keeps the original element in the DOM (hiding it), adds a reference to the selectize on the .selectize property of the DOM element and adds a CSS class selectized to it.

So the solution finds all the elements that have the CSS class selectized, loops through them and calls element.selectize.clear().

Or if you have multi select, and do want to restore selected items in the drop-down list (hide selected set to true).

var selectize = $("#select-item").selectize;
//clone array
var items = selectize.items.slice(0);
for (var i in items) {
    selectize.removeItem(items[i]);
}
selectize.refreshOptions();

Try this out:- http://jsfiddle.net/adiioo7/2gnq1ruv/204/

JS:-

jQuery(function ($) {
    var $select = $('#input-tags').selectize({
        persist: false,
        create: true
    });

    $("#btnClear").on("click", function () {
        var selectize = $select[0].selectize;
        selectize.clear();

    });
});

I finally found the answer here Selectize.js Demos

What works for me is:

 var $select = $('#optionNetFlow').selectize();
 var control = $select[0].selectize;
 control.clear();

what I was missing var $select = $('#optionNetFlow').selectize(); before applying the solution provided in above question's answer.

Now I am to get all the functions in console like :

$(document).on('click', 'div.selectize-input div.item', function(e) {
    var select = $('#services').selectize();
    var selectSizeControl = select[0].selectize;
    // 1. Get the value
    var selectedValue = $(this).attr("data-value");
    // 2. Remove the option
    select[0].selectize.removeItem(selectedValue);
    // 3. Refresh the select
    select[0].selectize.refreshItems();
    select[0].selectize.refreshOptions();
});

This do not remove the item from the select, just remove it from the selected options.
