 * Hi,
 * I’m able to save the data from multiple selected checkboxes into the wp_capabilities
   user meta field by mapping the field, but it seems that it’s not in the correct
   format and it is getting ignored. Is there a way to get this done somehow? Basically
   the user would choose multiple roles on the registration form.
 * Thanks for your answer in advance!

 * Hi [@factor](https://wordpress.org/support/users/factor/),
 * Unfortunately, it is not possible in the current version of the plugin.
    You 
   can assign only one role at the time of registration with ERF.
 * One of the solutions to such a challenge can be installing a 3rd party plugin
   to create a custom user role which can help you give more control with a single
   user role.
 * Feel free to drop us an email on [erformswp@gmail.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/multiple-user-roles-using-checkboxes/erformswp@gmail.com?output_format=md)
   if you have further questions.
 * Regards
