Hi @WiFi Plug. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave: ---------------------- To allow Nuxt Studio's preview (which uses an iframe) to work with the nuxt-security module, you need to adjust your security headers to permit embedding your site in an iframe. By default, nuxt-security may set headers like X-Frame-Options: DENY or a restrictive Content-Security-Policy (CSP) that blocks iframes. What to do: 1. Set the correct CSP frame-ancestors directive
In your nuxt.config.ts, under the security.headers.contentSecurityPolicy option, ensure the frame-ancestors directive allows the Nuxt Studio domain (or * for testing, but restrict in production):
export default defineNuxtConfig({
security: {
headers: {
contentSecurityPolicy: {
'frame-ancestors': ["'self'", '<https://studio.nuxt.com',> '<https://nuxt.studio'],>
},
},
},
})

export default defineNuxtConfig({
security: {
headers: {
contentSecurityPolicy: {
'frame-ancestors': ["'self'", '<https://studio.nuxt.com',> '<https://nuxt.studio'],>
},
},
},
})

2. Remove or adjust X-Frame-Options
If you have X-Frame-Options set to DENY or SAMEORIGIN, it will block all iframes. Either remove this header or set it to allow the required origins. 3. Restart your Nuxt server
After making changes, restart your server for the new headers to take effect. Note:
The knowledge sources do not provide a step-by-step for this exact scenario, but they do mention that security headers (like CSP) can block iframe previews and that you may need to adjust them for features like Studio live preview to work properly. If you continue to have issues, check your browser's developer tools for blocked requests and adjust your headers accordingly. For more details on Studio preview setup, see the Studio setup documentation. If you need to troubleshoot further, ensure that the /__preview.json endpoint is accessible and that your CSP and other headers are not overly restrictive for the Studio domain to embed your site in an iframe Enable the Full Editing Experience. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai nuxt studio is stuck Initializing the preview... why could that be
kapa.ai
kapa.ai6d ago
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- If Nuxt Studio is stuck on "Initializing the preview...", the most common causes—according to the knowledge sources—are related to the Preview API setup and security headers: 1. Preview API Not Configured or Accessible
- You must set the preview.api option in your nuxt.config.ts to '<https://api.nuxt.studio'> for Studio integration. - After deployment, ensure that the /__preview.json endpoint is accessible from your deployed site. This file is required for Studio to connect and enable the preview. If this file is missing or inaccessible, Studio cannot initialize the preview. - Example configuration:
export default defineNuxtConfig({
content: {
preview: {
api: '<https://api.nuxt.studio'>
}
}
})

export default defineNuxtConfig({
content: {
preview: {
api: '<https://api.nuxt.studio'>
}
}
})

- You can check if the preview is working by visiting <https://your-site.com/__preview.json> in your browser. If you see an error or the file is missing, Studio will not be able to initialize the preview Enable the Full Editing Experience. 2. Security Headers Blocking the Preview
- Overly strict security headers (such as CSP or X-Frame-Options) can block the iframe or the preview endpoint. Make sure your headers allow embedding and access from Nuxt Studio. See previous answer for details on adjusting these headers. 3. Git Info Missing in Preview Metadata
- If you get a "Forbidden error: invalid property check" when setting your URL in Studio, ensure the gitInfo field is correctly set in your __preview.json. You can override it in your nuxt.config.ts if needed Enable the Full Editing Experience. 4. Local Development Setup
- If you are developing locally, you need to expose your local server using npx nuxt dev --tunnel and set the tunnel URL in Studio. Also, set dev: true in the preview config to force module initialization in dev mode Local Debug. If you have checked all of the above and the issue persists, the knowledge sources recommend checking your browser's developer tools for network errors or contacting the Nuxt team on their Discord server for further help. I'm sorry, but the knowledge sources do not provide more specific troubleshooting steps for this issue. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai im using nuxt ui pro for my site, which has icons right. but for example sometimes the color mode dropdown icons will be wrong like the icon is supposed to be a dark mode icon but it'll show the icon for system etc and in other places too why could that be?
kapa.ai
kapa.ai6d ago
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- The issue you're describing—where the color mode dropdown (or other places) shows the wrong icon (e.g., the dark mode icon appears for system, etc.)—is most likely related to how the icon mapping is configured in your Nuxt UI Pro setup. Nuxt UI Pro uses the ui.icons property in your app.config.ts (or vite.config.ts for Vue projects) to determine which icons to use for each color mode option (system, light, dark). If these mappings are incorrect or missing, the wrong icons may be displayed in the UI components. Example of correct icon mapping:
// app.config.ts
export default defineAppConfig({
ui: {
icons: {
system: 'i-ph-desktop',
light: 'i-ph-sun',
dark: 'i-ph-moon'
}
}
})
// app.config.ts
export default defineAppConfig({
ui: {
icons: {
system: 'i-ph-desktop',
light: 'i-ph-sun',
dark: 'i-ph-moon'
}
}
})
If, for example, you accidentally assign the same icon to multiple modes or mix up the keys, the dropdown will show the wrong icons for each mode. Double-check your icon configuration to ensure each mode is mapped to the correct icon. This mapping is referenced in the documentation for components like UColorModeSelect, UColorModeButton, and UColorModeSwitch, which all use the ui.icons property for their icons. The documentation provides explicit examples of how to set these icons correctly for each mode ColorModeSelect, ColorModeButton, ColorModeSwitch. In summary:
If the icons are wrong, review your ui.icons configuration and ensure each color mode (system, light, dark) is mapped to the intended icon. This should resolve the issue with incorrect icons appearing in your color mode dropdown and other related components. If you have already set this up correctly and still see issues, the knowledge sources do not provide further troubleshooting steps for this specific problem. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai i haven't modified those icons just the default
kapa.ai
kapa.ai6d ago
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- If you haven't modified the icon configuration and are seeing incorrect icons (such as the wrong icon for dark mode or system mode) in Nuxt UI Pro components, this is unexpected because Nuxt UI Pro provides sensible defaults for these icons out of the box. The default icon mapping for color modes (system, light, dark) is set in the ui.icons property, and components like UColorModeSelect, UColorModeButton, and UColorModeSwitch use these defaults unless overridden ColorModeSelect ColorModeButton ColorModeSwitch. If the defaults are not displaying correctly, possible reasons (based on the knowledge sources) could include: - A bug or conflict in the Nuxt UI Pro version you are using. - A misconfiguration elsewhere in your project that affects how icons are resolved or rendered. - Issues with the icon collection not being available or loaded properly. The knowledge sources do not provide a specific explanation for this issue if you have not changed the icon configuration. If you continue to experience this problem with the default setup, it may be worth checking for updates to Nuxt UI Pro or reaching out to the Nuxt team for support, as this behavior is not expected according to the documentation. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai when using routerules to cache a server api route SWR how does it work on failure will it return an error to the client or just serve the lat cached data?
kapa.ai
kapa.ai6d ago
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- When you use route rules to cache a server API route with SWR (stale-while-revalidate) in Nuxt/Nitro, the behavior is as follows: - If the cache is valid: The server responds with the cached data immediately and triggers a background revalidation (fetches fresh data in the background). - If the cache is expired or missing: The server attempts to fetch fresh data. If this fetch fails (e.g., the upstream API is down), the behavior depends on whether there is still a stale (previous) cache available. According to the documentation, with SWR enabled, if the cache has expired but stale data is still available, Nitro will serve the stale cached data to the client while attempting to revalidate in the background. If there is no cached data at all (e.g., first request or cache was purged), and the fetch fails, then an error will be returned to the client. In summary: - On fetch failure with stale cache: The client receives the last cached data. - On fetch failure with no cache: The client receives an error response. This behavior is managed by the Nitro caching layer and is described in the Nuxt documentation on hybrid rendering and route rules Hybrid Rendering. If you need more granular control, you can use Nitro’s defineCachedEventHandler for custom cache and error handling logic Caching in Nitro (YouTube). The knowledge sources do not provide more detailed internal error-handling mechanisms, but the above describes the standard SWR pattern as implemented in Nuxt/Nitro. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai nuxt ui selectmenu how do i make it run a function when i select something i tried @update:model-value="handleCurrencyChange"
kapa.ai
kapa.ai6d ago
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- To run a function when you select something in a Nuxt UI USelectMenu, you should use the @update:model-value event. This event is emitted with the new value whenever the selection changes. Your approach is correct. Here’s an example from the knowledge sources:
<script setup lang="ts">
const items = ref(['Backlog', 'Todo', 'In Progress', 'Done'])
const value = ref('Backlog')

function handleCurrencyChange(newValue) {
// Your logic here
console.log('Selected:', newValue)
}
</script>

<template>
<USelectMenu
v-model="value"
:items="items"
@update:model-value="handleCurrencyChange"
class="w-48"
/>
</template>
<script setup lang="ts">
const items = ref(['Backlog', 'Todo', 'In Progress', 'Done'])
const value = ref('Backlog')

function handleCurrencyChange(newValue) {
// Your logic here
console.log('Selected:', newValue)
}
</script>

<template>
<USelectMenu
v-model="value"
:items="items"
@update:model-value="handleCurrencyChange"
class="w-48"
/>
</template>
This will call handleCurrencyChange with the new value whenever a selection is made SelectMenu Props. If your function is not being called, double-check that: - The function is defined in your <script setup>. - The event name is exactly @update:model-value. This is the recommended way according to the knowledge sources. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai I'm trying to use a Uselectmenu to update selected currency in my pinia store when i change the dropdown which works however the getter isn't updating the selection in my select menu until i refresh the page. "<!-- components/CurrencySelector.vue --> <template> <USelectMenu v-model="selectedCurrency" :items="currencyOptions" :icon="selectedCurrency?.icon" :ui="{ trailingIcon: 'group-data-[state=open]:rotate-180 transition-transform duration-200', }" /> </template> <script setup lang="ts"> const { setCurrencyPreference, preferredCurrency } = useCurrencyStore() // Currency options automatically generated from shared config const currencyOptions = computed(() => Object.entries(CURRENCY_CONFIGS).map(([key, config]) => ({ value: key as CurrencyDisplay, label: config.code, icon: config.icon, })) ) // Computed getter/setter for USelectMenu with safe guards const selectedCurrency = computed({ get() { const config = CURRENCY_CONFIGS[preferredCurrency] return { value: preferredCurrency, label: config.code, icon: config.icon, } }, set(newValue: { value: CurrencyDisplay; label: string; icon: string }) { if (newValue?.value && CURRENCY_CONFIGS[newValue.value]) { setCurrencyPreference(newValue.value) } }, }) </script> " why could this be? is my code good for this or not
kapa.ai
kapa.ai6d ago
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- Your approach—using a computed getter/setter for v-model on USelectMenu to sync with your Pinia store—is logical, but the issue you're experiencing (the selection not updating until a page refresh) likely stems from how the computed property and the store's state are interacting. What the knowledge sources say: - USelectMenu expects the value passed to v-model to be either a primitive or, when using objects, to match one of the objects in the items array by reference, not just by value. If the object returned by your computed getter is a new object each time (which it is, since you create a new object in the getter), it will not match any of the objects in currencyOptions, and thus the selection will not update as expected SelectMenu Items. Key point from the docs:
Unlike the Select component, the SelectMenu expects the whole object to be passed to the v-model directive or the default-value prop by default.
— SelectMenu Items
Why this causes your issue: - When you select a new currency, you update the store, but your computed getter creates a new object that is not the same (by reference) as any object in currencyOptions. Vue's reactivity and the SelectMenu's internal logic rely on object reference equality to determine the selected item. How to fix: - Instead of returning a new object in your computed getter, find and return the matching object from currencyOptions. This ensures the reference matches what USelectMenu expects. Example fix:
const selectedCurrency = computed({
get() {
// Find the matching option by value and return the same object reference
return currencyOptions.value.find(
(option) => option.value === preferredCurrency
)
},
set(newValue) {
if (newValue?.value && CURRENCY_CONFIGS[newValue.value]) {
setCurrencyPreference(newValue.value)
}
},
})
const selectedCurrency = computed({
get() {
// Find the matching option by value and return the same object reference
return currencyOptions.value.find(
(option) => option.value === preferredCurrency
)
},
set(newValue) {
if (newValue?.value && CURRENCY_CONFIGS[newValue.value]) {
setCurrencyPreference(newValue.value)
}
},
})
This way, the object passed to v-model is the same as one in currencyOptions, and the selection will update reactively as expected. Summary:
Your code is close, but you need to ensure the selected object is the same reference as in your items array for USelectMenu to work correctly. This is a requirement described in the Nuxt UI documentation for USelectMenu SelectMenu Items. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- I'm sorry, but the knowledge sources do not provide explicit troubleshooting steps for this specific issue where USelectMenu does not update its selection reactively when using a Pinia store and a computed getter/setter. The documentation does clarify that USelectMenu expects the selected value to be the same object reference as one in the items array, and that using a computed property for v-model is supported if this condition is met SelectMenu Items. Since you have already tried returning the exact object from your currencyOptions array and the issue persists, the knowledge sources do not contain further information to resolve this. It may be a reactivity edge case or a limitation not covered in the current documentation. If the problem continues, you may want to check for updates to Nuxt UI Pro or seek help from the Nuxt community, as the knowledge sources do not provide a definitive solution for this scenario. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- Based on the knowledge sources, the issue is likely due to how USelectMenu expects its v-model value to work when using the value-key prop. When you use value-key="id", USelectMenu expects the value bound to v-model to be the primitive value (e.g., "usd"), not the whole object. The component will then match this value against the id property of each item in your items array to determine the selected item Value Key. What you should do: - Make sure your selectedCurrency computed property returns the primitive value (e.g., "usd") and not the whole object. - Your currencyOptions should have an id property for each option, which you already have. Example fix:
<script setup lang="ts">
const { setCurrencyPreference, preferredCurrency } = useCurrencyStore()

const currencyOptions = computed(() =>
Object.entries(CURRENCY_CONFIGS).map(([key, config]) => ({
id: key as CurrencyDisplay,
label: config.code,
icon: config.icon,
}))
)

const selectedCurrency = computed({
get() {
// Return the primitive value (e.g., "usd")
return preferredCurrency
},
set(newValue) {
setCurrencyPreference(newValue)
},
})
</script>

<template>
<USelectMenu
v-model="selectedCurrency"
:items="currencyOptions"
value-key="id"
:icon="currencyOptions.find(opt => opt.id === selectedCurrency)?.icon"
:ui="{
trailingIcon: 'group-data-[state=open]:rotate-180 transition-transform duration-200',
}"
/>
</template>
<script setup lang="ts">
const { setCurrencyPreference, preferredCurrency } = useCurrencyStore()

const currencyOptions = computed(() =>
Object.entries(CURRENCY_CONFIGS).map(([key, config]) => ({
id: key as CurrencyDisplay,
label: config.code,
icon: config.icon,
}))
)

const selectedCurrency = computed({
get() {
// Return the primitive value (e.g., "usd")
return preferredCurrency
},
set(newValue) {
setCurrencyPreference(newValue)
},
})
</script>

<template>
<USelectMenu
v-model="selectedCurrency"
:items="currencyOptions"
value-key="id"
:icon="currencyOptions.find(opt => opt.id === selectedCurrency)?.icon"
:ui="{
trailingIcon: 'group-data-[state=open]:rotate-180 transition-transform duration-200',
}"
/>
</template>
Key points: - v-model should be the primitive value ("usd", "eur", etc.) when using value-key="id". - The select menu will handle matching the value to the correct item internally. This approach matches the documented usage for value-key in USelectMenu Value Key. If you follow this pattern, the selection should update reactively as expected. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

kapa.ai6d ago
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- Based on the knowledge sources, using a computed property for the items prop in USelectMenu is supported and should not, by itself, prevent reactivity or selection updates. The official examples use both refs and computed properties for items without issue SelectMenu Items. However, for v-model to work as expected with value-key="id", the value you bind (in this case, preferredCurrency from your Pinia store) must be a ref (not just a plain value or getter) and must be updated reactively by your store. The USelectMenu will match this value against the id property of your items. If preferredCurrency is a ref in your Pinia store, your simplified code should work, provided that: - preferredCurrency is a writable ref (not a computed getter). - The value of preferredCurrency matches one of the id values in your currencyOptions. From the documentation:
You can choose to bind a single property of the object rather than the whole object by using the value-key prop. Defaults to undefined Value Key.
Example from the docs:
<script setup lang="ts">
const items = ref([
{ label: 'Backlog', id: 'backlog' },
{ label: 'Todo', id: 'todo' },
{ label: 'In Progress', id: 'in_progress' },
{ label: 'Done', id: 'done' }
])
const value = ref('todo')
</script>

<template>
<USelectMenu v-model="value" value-key="id" :items="items" class="w-48" />
</template>
<script setup lang="ts">
const items = ref([
{ label: 'Backlog', id: 'backlog' },
{ label: 'Todo', id: 'todo' },
{ label: 'In Progress', id: 'in_progress' },
{ label: 'Done', id: 'done' }
])
const value = ref('todo')
</script>

<template>
<USelectMenu v-model="value" value-key="id" :items="items" class="w-48" />
</template>
Value Key Example If it still doesn't work: - Double-check that preferredCurrency is a writable ref and not a computed getter. - Ensure that the value of preferredCurrency exactly matches one of the id values in your currencyOptions. - There is no indication in the knowledge sources that using a computed property for items would break reactivity. If all of the above are correct and it still does not work, the knowledge sources do not provide further troubleshooting steps for this scenario. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai so i have a ref in my pinia store for the selected currency like "usd" and then i have CURRENCY_CONFIGS "export const CURRENCY_CONFIGS: Record<CurrencyDisplay, CurrencyConfig> = { coins: { code: 'COINS', symbol: '', exchangeRate: 1, icon: 'i-lucide-coins', iconPosition: 'before', locale: 'en-US', decimalPlaces: 0, },' so how would you go about this select menu so its updating my pinias selected currency and grabbing from it to show the selected one and the items are my currency configs with icon and name
kapa.ai
kapa.ai5d ago
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- To implement a currency selector using USelectMenu that updates your Pinia store's selected currency (a ref like "usd") and displays the correct icon and label from your CURRENCY_CONFIGS, you should: 1. Use your Pinia store's currency ref as the v-model value. 2. Set value-key="id" so the select menu matches the primitive value (e.g., "usd") to the id property in your items. 3. Map your CURRENCY_CONFIGS to an array of objects with id, label, and icon for the select menu items. 4. Use the selected currency to find the correct icon for the menu display. Here’s how you can do it, following the documented pattern for USelectMenu with value-key Value Key:
<script setup lang="ts">
const { preferredCurrency, setCurrencyPreference } = useCurrencyStore()

const currencyOptions = computed(() =>
Object.entries(CURRENCY_CONFIGS).map(([key, config]) => ({
id: key, // This should match the value in your Pinia ref
label: config.code,
icon: config.icon,
}))
)

// Optional: If you want to show the icon of the selected currency in the menu
const selectedIcon = computed(() =>
currencyOptions.value.find(opt => opt.id === preferredCurrency.value)?.icon
)
</script>

<template>
<USelectMenu
v-model="preferredCurrency"
:items="currencyOptions"
value-key="id"
:icon="selectedIcon"
@update:model-value="setCurrencyPreference"
class="w-48"
/>
</template>
<script setup lang="ts">
const { preferredCurrency, setCurrencyPreference } = useCurrencyStore()

const currencyOptions = computed(() =>
Object.entries(CURRENCY_CONFIGS).map(([key, config]) => ({
id: key, // This should match the value in your Pinia ref
label: config.code,
icon: config.icon,
}))
)

// Optional: If you want to show the icon of the selected currency in the menu
const selectedIcon = computed(() =>
currencyOptions.value.find(opt => opt.id === preferredCurrency.value)?.icon
)
</script>

<template>
<USelectMenu
v-model="preferredCurrency"
:items="currencyOptions"
value-key="id"
:icon="selectedIcon"
@update:model-value="setCurrencyPreference"
class="w-48"
/>
</template>
Key points from the docs: - When using value-key, the v-model should be the primitive value (e.g., "usd"), and the select menu will match it to the id in your items Value Key. - The items array can be a computed property. - The icon can be dynamically set based on the selected value. Note:
- Make sure preferredCurrency is a writable ref in your Pinia store. - The @update:model-value event is optional if your Pinia ref is writable and updates automatically; otherwise, use it to call your setter. This approach matches the recommended usage in the knowledge sources and should work as expected. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai yeah still not working can i maybe manually watch my preferredcurrency for changes and update the selectmenu selected item manually to kind of replicate a browser refresh which is when it works

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- The knowledge sources do not explicitly mention manually syncing a USelectMenu selection with a store value using a watcher. However, based on the documented reactivity patterns in Vue and Nuxt, you can use a watch to manually update a local ref that is bound to the select menu if automatic reactivity is not working as expected. For example, you could do something like this:
<script setup lang="ts">
const { preferredCurrency } = useCurrencyStore()
const selectedCurrency = ref(preferredCurrency.value)

watch(

This approach uses a local selectedCurrency ref for the select menu and keeps it in sync with your Pinia store using watchers. While this is not directly documented for USelectMenu, using watchers to sync state is a common Vue pattern and is referenced in other contexts in the knowledge sources, such as syncing state between components or with the store (example). If this workaround is needed, it suggests there may be a deeper reactivity or store integration issue, but the knowledge sources do not provide further troubleshooting steps for this specific scenario. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai " const preferredCurrency = ref<CurrencyDisplay>('coins') " " return { // State preferredCurrency," in my pinia store preferredcurrency is this could this be a problem

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- Based on the knowledge sources, defining your Pinia store state as const preferredCurrency = ref<CurrencyDisplay>('coins') and returning it from your store is a standard and supported pattern in Nuxt and Vue. The Nuxt UI documentation for USelectMenu shows that you can use a ref as the value for v-model, especially when using the value-key prop to match a primitive value (like 'coins') to an item in your options array Value Key. If you are experiencing issues with reactivity or the selection not updating, the knowledge sources do not indicate that using a ref in your Pinia store is the cause. This pattern should work as expected, provided that: - The ref is writable and updated correctly. - The value matches the id (or whatever key you use) in your select menu items. If you are still having issues, the knowledge sources do not provide further troubleshooting steps for this specific scenario. The use of a ref in your Pinia store for this purpose is correct according to the documentation. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- To create a basic dropdown menu with USelectMenu without the search input, you can use the search-input prop and set it to false. This will hide the search field and give you a simple dropdown experience. Here’s how you can adjust your component:
<USelectMenu
v-model="selectedCurrency"
:items="currencyOptions"
:icon="currencyOptions.find((opt) => opt.value === currencyStore.preferredCurrency)?.icon"
:ui="{ trailingIcon: 'transition-transform duration-200 group-data-[state=open]:rotate-180' }"
:search-input="false" <!-- This disables the search input -->
/>
<USelectMenu
v-model="selectedCurrency"
:items="currencyOptions"
:icon="currencyOptions.find((opt) => opt.value === currencyStore.preferredCurrency)?.icon"
:ui="{ trailingIcon: 'transition-transform duration-200 group-data-[state=open]:rotate-180' }"
:search-input="false" <!-- This disables the search input -->
/>
This approach is documented in the Nuxt UI knowledge sources:
You can set the search-input prop to false to hide the search input.

This will give you a basic dropdown menu without the search functionality. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------
