Does not work if it has duplicate child with the same text.

Consider this as an example -

---Select--- CS > Foundation > Nov 2014 CS > Foundation > May 2015 CS > Executive > Nov 2014 CS > Executive > May 2015 CS > Professional > Nov 2014 CS > Professional > May 2015 <option value="13">CMA > Foundation > Nov 2014</option> <option value="14">CMA > Foundation > May 2015</option> <option value="15">CMA > Intermediate > Nov 2014</option> <option value="16">CMA > Intermediate > May 2015</option> <option value="17">CMA > Final > Nov 2014</option> <option value="18">CMA > Final > May 2015</option>

Hi, I confirm this issue.
I have the following options:

Select an option J > Categories > English (United Kingdom) J > Categories > Français (FR) J > Articles > English (United Kingdom) J > Articles > Français (FR) V > Categories > English (United Kingdom) V > Categories > Français (FR) V > Products > English (United Kingdom) V > Products > Français (FR)

It just makes the dependent selects go mad: duplicate select instances on the 2nd level and duplicate options on the last level.

I've built a bunch of apps based on these fantastic select lists and now I'm stuck on this little detail which makes all of them useless.

Not asking for an instant fix, but it would be great to know how what kind of timescale we're on for an update of the code. I'm just wondering if I must use this and promote it, or if I should abandon it for a better solution.

Thanks a lot.

ok, I see that the previous report on this bug is from November 2014 and not a single reply has been made. It's a shame but I'm forgetting this jquery extension now.
good luck to everyone and thanks to the creator for trying.

Hey @Ajeey @appincube @Arti3DPlayer! I've just had this repo transferred back to me from my previous employer (I originally created it while working there). Over the coming days and weeks I'll be catching up with all the issues and looking into personally maintaining this in the long run.

Sorry that your comments have gone un-replied for so long, but now it's back in my hands I'll try my best to stay on top of it all.

Thanks, your lib saved a lot of time for me. I had a little time to try to fix duplicates, but, i didn't. So now i use this hack to remove duplicates:

$('.dependent-sub option[data-dependent-name]').remove();

Was this ever fixed? If not, how is the hack above implemented...at what point is it called that is?

[gavinbaumanis]

Still not fixed - I am having this issue, too.
