 * Hi,
    if we use wp_enqueue_media() in our own plugin in order to use the WordPress
   ajax media library, then we get the “selectize is not a function” error, as your
   script is not loaded. Can you please enqueue the styles and scripts in a way 
   that makes them work with an ajax media library, because currently they are only
   enqueued on the upload.php page.
 *     ```
       public static function admin_enqueue_scripts() {
       	global $pagenow;
       	if ( $pagenow == 'upload.php' ) {
       		Groups_UIE::enqueue( 'select' );
       	}
       }
       ```

 * Hi richterd,
 * You should also need Groups_UIE::render_select(‘.class_name_of_the_select_tag’);
   
   or Groups_UIE::render_select(‘#id_name_of_the_select_tag’); right after the select
   tag is inserted.
 * Cheers

 * Are we talking about the same problem?
    My issue is, that the selectize script
   which is used by the Groups plugin is only enqueued on the “upload.php” page.
   But if you use the media library in other places, $pagenow is not equal to “upload.
   php” and then the script is missing.

 * Hi Guys,
 * Any resolution on this? I’m running into the same issue using a custom post-type
   for our plugin.
 * Is there a simple workaround if not an updated fix?
 * Thanks!

 * Hi,
 * I managed to replicate the issue on my installation.
    If you choose the custom
   post type you created under Groups > Options, the issue is resolved.
 * Cheers,
    George

 * Using Groups Restrict Categories. Just recently I am experiencing the same error.
   I’ve disabled all other plugins but this error remains and all JS on the page
   dies.
 * Any assistance greatly appreciated!
 * Error on Download Categories > Edit Category admin screen:
