[Dropdown] Query remote for dropdowns using custom values key

[bradiosd]

I'm working with remote query dropdown lists and I've noticed that the custom field key setting for values is not working... It gets completely ignored in fact. I don't know the Semantic UI codebase well enough to issue a pull request and I might break other things but perhaps someone else can fix it?

Example... Setting the field keys.

$('.ui.dropdown').dropdown('setting', {
    apiSettings: {
        url: '<api_url>',
    },
    fields: {
        values: 'results', // Custom set result key
        name: 'name',
        value: 'id'
    }
});

In the combined semantic-ui.js file on line 4778. The code currently looks like this.

onSuccess : function(response) {
  module.remove.message();
  module.setup.menu({
    values: response.results // This is HARD CODED to results. Should take value from custom defined key
  });
  callback();
}

Let me know if this needs explaining further or if I'm wrong... I've hacked the code to work for me now.

It looks like this might be fixed on master:

However the values variable is never used...

Original poster is correct, this is hard coded and shouldnt be.
