Every filter is an autocomplete field

[berarma]

When autocomplete is true, it forces every filter field to be an autocomplete select. It doesn't matter the name of the field or the field options set in the SearchManager or the ViewSearch listener.

Setting autocomplete to false solves the issue but this renders the option useless.

Have you tried setting the inputType data attribute for the field to "text" for the ones you want to be text? That's what the JS code checks for https://github.com/FriendsOfCake/crud-view/blob/master/webroot/js/local.js#L57

Sorry, I missed understood the issue. You can set the autocomplete config to false and then add autocomplete class to required fields to turn them into autocomplete widgets.

True, but then the autocomplete setting is useless unless every filter field must be autocomplete. Was that intended?

Not sure what the original author intended. But I agree the default doesn't make much sense.

Given that the problem is circumvented by setting autocomplete to false, I am going to keep this unchanged for now. In any case all the options jugging for autocomplete belongs in a widget class instead of the listener. I have an open issue #272 for creating the widget since quite sometime but haven't got around to it.

Autocomplete is now used by default only for select: 21d75e8
