Trying to implement a custom select dropdown using select2 plugin Is it possible to have the selected value to display only the actual option \'value\' instead of the text,
Drop down actually has two parts one is Text and other is Value. Text is for user point of view and Value is used by developer for his/her use. If you want to display value then as I think your end user should be able to get what actually the displayed value means, with this consideration what I will suggest you is to have both Text and Value as same only(as that of value in above).
