How to disable adding new tags in bootstrap tagsinput? – Twitter bootstrap

I’m going to use bootstrap tagsinput without adding new tags feature (only remove tags). How to disable adding new tags?

I’m using latest bootstrap tagsinput v0.8.0 with twitter bootstrap 3.

Here is my snippet:

<input id="removeonlyinput" type="text" value="Amsterdam,Berlin,Lisbon" data-role="tagsinput" />

<script>
$('#removeonlyinput').tagsinput({
      freeinput: false
});
</script>

    You can modify bootstrap-tagsinput.js file.

    find maxTags:, line and make it maxTags: 0,

    Then it won’t add new tags.

    In this way I achieved the functionality.
    Hope this helps!

    Try to use beforeItemAdd event:

    $('#removeonlyinput').on('beforeItemAdd', function(event) {
  event.cancel = true;
});

    How about making the input field readonly ? By this no user can type in the input text.

    $('input[type=text]').prop("readonly", true);

    you can do this

    $( "#removeonlyinput" ).prop( "disabled", true );

    don’t mind the extra spaces.
