After Ajax Request Select Option not Resetting

I have a form in which there is a title, select option, and content. What I am doing is I am taking all the data and sending it to the server via ajax, I am able to reset the input fields but I am not able to reset the select option box.

following is my select box code:

<select name="post_category" class="post_category round select2 form-control" id="id_h5_single">

    <option selected disabled value="">Select Post Category</option>

    <option value="Am">America</option>

    <option value="Nt">Netherland</option>

</select>

Following is the jQuery code that I am using to reset the above field:

// $('.post_category').prop('selectedIndex',-1);

// $('.post_category').val($(this).find('option:first').val());

// $("select.post_category option:selected").attr('disabled','disabled');

// $("select").val("");

$('.post_category').prop('selectedIndex',0);

The commented code is the codes I've used it. What I want to do is, when the page loads by default it shows in select Select Post Category. I want to display the same after the ajax request when I reset it. However, I am finding difficulties in it. What's wrong I am not able to get it.

Can't select a disabled option. Get rid of disabled. Can simplify also by just setting value of select ... $('.post_category').val('')

I give you an example that approach your goal. When document loads, after 1 second the select is changed to America, and 4 seconds later will be changed again to the default value.

$(document).ready(function()

{

    $(".select2").select2();

    

    setTimeout(

        function(){$("#id_h5_single").val("Am").change();},

        1000

    );

    

    setTimeout(

        function(){$("#id_h5_single").val("").change();},

       5000

    );

});

.select2{

  width: 50vw;

}

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>

<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/select2/4.0.5/css/select2.min.css"/>

<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/select2/4.0.5/js/select2.min.js"></script>



<select name="post_category" class="post_category round select2 form-control" id="id_h5_single">

    <option selected disabled value="">Select Post Category</option>

    <option value="Am">America</option>

    <option value="Nt">Netherland</option>

</select>

But, since you are using the select2 plugin, the best approach for what you want is to use the placeholder, not a default disabled option. You can check this on next example:

$(document).ready(function()

{

    $(".select2").select2({

        placeholder: "Select Post Category",

        allowClear: true

    });

    

    setTimeout(

        function(){$("#id_h5_single").val("Am").change();},

        1000

    );

    

    setTimeout(

        function(){$("#id_h5_single").val("").change();},

       5000

    );

});

.select2{

  width: 50vw;

}
