 * Is there a way to assign two or more roles – automatically – at registration?

 * Wanted to add that I am registering users through Buddy Boss, just in case that
   has an impact on the solution. Thx.

 * Hi Giray,
 * To add role on registration you can use this code snippet, modify it, and add
   at the end of your theme’s functions.php file:
 *     ```wp-block-code
       add_action( 'user_register', function( $user_id ) {
         $user = get_user_by( 'ID', $user_id );
         if ( /* Your condition here */ ) {
           $user->add_role( 'new-role' );
         }
       });
       ```
   
 * By default users will have Subscriber role but thanks to this code they should
   also have New Role.
 * Hopefully, that helps.
