Jquery to append options onto a dropdown

  • Hi,

    I want to add or remove options from a select dropdown using jquery, but I can’t get it to work, jquery isn’t working at all.

    Here is my code

    add_shortcode( 'filters_user_owns', function () {
	
	
	global $current_user;
get_currentuserinfo();
	
	if($current_user->filter_type_1)
	{
		
		?>

	<script>
$("#addon-19-filter-choice-0").append('<option value="filter1">Filter 1</option>');</script>
		<?php
		
	}

} );

    It’s probably worth ensuring that jQuery is enqueued:

    add_action( 'wp_enqueue_script', function () {

	wp_enqueue_script( 'jquery' );

} );

    And I’m not sure if WordPress still uses jQuery in noConflict mode, but it’s also worth trying the full jQuery function instead of $:

    jQuery("#addon-19-filter-choice-0").append('<option value="filter1">Filter 1</option>');</script>
