I’have just installed the third version of OJS to give it a test drive. And the first problem I am facing:
I can not register as a new user.
This is the screenshot of an error message I get: At least one role must be selected. (meanwhile there is no such an option when filling the registration form).
What can be wrong? Am I missing some settings in the admin section?
It sounds like no roles are available for self-registration. Go into Users & Roles > Roles, and ensure that one of the following roles has the checkbox “Allow user self-registration” checked:
Author
Reviewer
Reader

we have the exact same problem at the moment. When a new user tries to register the error message: At least one role must be selected. is displayed and the registration fails.
The checkbox “Allow user self-registration” under User & Roles > Roles is checked for author, reader and reviewer.
On the registration form only a checkbox for reviewer is displayed but no checkboxes for author or reader.
Is it possible to have every new user get assigned automatically to the role of reader?
