I am running Backdrop version 1.15.x-dev  and have just installed Auto Assign Role Version 1.x-1.0.0 because I want new account users to be offered a couple of choices of Role, and then that can be automatically assigned to them when they register.

I have been a Drupal user for many years now, Versions 6,7 & 8. I am new to Backdrop, but hoping to be able to switch from Drupal 8 to Backdrop.

I have just enabled the 'User Choice' in the Configuration, and have selected a couple of Roles, Single Role, Selection Box, Required - Yes, with appropriate text in the User Role Description, with the rest as the default.

I then logged out, added a fictitious user to test it with a valid Email address.

After validation, the Role I have chosen is not activated although the user has the Authenticated Role.

In the Log I have this error after I log in as the administrator and look at the New User Account:

Notice: Undefined index: Host in views_handler_field_user_roles->pre_render() (line 36 of /home/francis/FG-Docs/public_html/wwoofbd.local/core/modules/user/views/views_handler_field_user_roles.inc).

The two Roles I have selected are Editor and Host

I have not found anything on Github about this.

Any ideas?

It looks like this particular problem has already been reported, and fixed! If you could help us test this fix, that would be great. Our Bug Squad will be able to merge this fix on behalf of the maintainer, once the fix is marked "Reviewed and tested by the community".

Hi @themetman and welcome :)

You might have better luck with bug-reports like this by filing them against the project that is giving you trouble. Auto Assign Role, for example, has it's own issue queue where you'll find other people who are using this module. If you're lucky, the maintainer will also be watching the queue, and they'll be the most valuable resource for resolving your issue.

Brilliant! Thanks a million, @jenlampton For some reason I could not find the module on Github. I think I was tired or something. I do have a Github account.

I have tested the patch and all is well, so I have reported that in the Issue comments.
