 -- INSTALLATION VIA COMPOSER --
-
-  If you are using Composer to manage your site's dependencies, then the Chosen plugin
-  will automatically be downloaded to `libraries/chosen`.
-
-  Currently there is an issue with composer downloading to the wrong
-  directory. More information in #19, #27, #28 in:
-  https://www.drupal.org/node/2706433
+  The chosen library does not support composer so manual steps are required in order to install it.
+
+  Firstly, you must add the composer/installers library in order to install chosen into the correct location.
+  Do this by running `composer require composer/installers:^1.2.0`
+
+  Then the following snippet must be added into your project's composer.json file so the drupal library is installed into the correct location:
+
+  "extra": {
+      "installer-paths": {
+          "libraries/{$name}": ["type:drupal-library"]
+      }
+  }
+
+  Finally, copy the following snippet into your project's composer.json file so the correct package is downloaded:
+
+  "repositories": [
+    {
+      "type": "package",
+      "package": {
+        "name": "harvesthq/chosen",
+        "version": "1.6.1",
+        "type": "drupal-library",
+        "dist": {
+          "url": "https://github.com/harvesthq/chosen/releases/download/v1.6.1/chosen_v1.6.1.zip",
+          "type": "zip"
+        }
+      }
+    }
+  ]
+
+  You'll also need to make sure the drupal composer facade has been added to the repositories https://www.drupal.org/docs/develop/using-composer/using-composer-to-manage-drupal-site-dependencies#drupal-packagist
+
+  After that, you'll be able to run `composer require drupal/chosen` and succesfully install all components.
