Hi @Manamapps,
I know what's was wrong. It's really simple but in your App.js file you need to import all mdb stuff before your root app import, just right like on the picture below:

And that's all.I paste some screenshots below to provide that it works for me.

2.

3.

I found another bug. This time it's our fault, but I have a workaround for it.
When you use time picker or date picker in modal you need to add disableFocusTrap prop to your modal. It's because picker's is launching as a modals so when you run modal in modal focus trap is blocking pickers and you cannot use it properly.
let me know that my solution works fine for you.
Best, Kuba

Hi @Manamapps,
I made a little code snippet to show you how to achieve this:
import React, { Component } from 'react';
import { MDBSelect, MDBContainer, MDBRow, MDBCol } from 'mdbreact';
class SelectPage extends Component {
  state = {
    basicOptions: []
  };
  componentDidMount() {
    this.setState({
      basicOptions: this.createOptions()
    });
  }
  createOptions = () => [
    {
      text: 'Option One',
      value: '1'
    },
    {
      text: 'Option Two',
      value: '2'
    },
    {
      text: 'Option Three',
      value: '3'
    },
    {
      text: 'Option Four',
      value: '4'
    }
  ];
  getValueOfSelect = value => {
    console.log(value);
  };
  render() {
    const { basicOptions } = this.state;
    return (
      <MDBContainer>
        <MDBRow className='d-flex justify-content-center'>
          <MDBCol md='6'>
            <MDBSelect
              color='primary'
              getValue={this.getValueOfSelect}
              getTextContent={this.getValueOfSelect}
              options={basicOptions}
              label='Basic example'
            />
          </MDBCol>
        </MDBRow>
      </MDBContainer>
    );
  }
}
export default SelectPage;
getValue fires on change.

Jakub Chmura staff commented 5 years ago
Sorry but I didn't see any select on this page http://localhost:3000/organizations/10

I've tried other selects in your project and yes there is a problem, but I didn't see a problem with our component. I need more time to get acquainted with the project to help you find the solution.

Hi @Manamapps,
I made a snippet for you. Try this:
import React, { Component } from "react";
import {
  MDBSelect,
  MDBSelectInput,
  MDBSelectOptions,
  MDBSelectOption
} from "mdbreact";
class SelectPage extends Component {
  render() {
    return (
      <div>
        <MDBSelect className="colorful-select w-10 float-left dropdown-primary mt-2 hidden-md-down">
          <MDBSelectInput selected="Rows number" />
          <MDBSelectOptions>
            <MDBSelectOption disabled>Rows number</MDBSelectOption>
            <MDBSelectOption value="1">5 rows</MDBSelectOption>
            <MDBSelectOption value="2">25 rows</MDBSelectOption>
            <MDBSelectOption value="3">50 rows</MDBSelectOption>
            <MDBSelectOption value="4">100 rows</MDBSelectOption>
          </MDBSelectOptions>
        </MDBSelect>
      </div>
    );
  }
}
export default SelectPage;
If this snippet will not work, please give me more details about your project, I will try to figure it out what's going one.
Best, Kuba

Hi @Manamapps,
I test this code snippet and on my computer, it works pretty well. Here is a proof:
Please uninstall node_modules folder and package-lock.json/yarn.lock from your project directory, then run npm i / yarn command in terminal.
Be sure to import style files into the src/index.js before the App.js file import:
Full instructions: HERE.
import '@fortawesome/fontawesome-free/css/all.min.css';
import 'bootstrap-css-only/css/bootstrap.min.css';
import 'mdbreact/dist/css/mdb.css';
After that try again.
Please let me know if my solution works for you.
Best, Kuba

Hi @Manamapps,
Please update MDBReact version to 4.24.0 and check that your problem still exist.
If the update didn't solve this issue, please paste here an example of your select code, and then I try to fix your problem.
Best regards,
Kuba
