Understanding of WordPress user roles (Subscriber, Contributor, Author, Editor, Administrator)

Steps:
1. Navigate to Form Settings
Go to User Registration & Membership → All Forms
Select the form you want to edit
Click on Form Settings → General Settings
2. Enable Conditional Role Assignment
Scroll down to find 'Enable Assign User Role Conditionally'
Toggle the option to enable it
3. Set Up Conditions
Define your condition rules (e.g., "If Gender = Male, assign Editor role")
Use AND/OR buttons to combine multiple conditions
Select the user role to assign when conditions are met

4. Add Multiple Role Conditions (Optional)
