ACF - Role Selector Field
This plugin adds a user role selector to ACF, allowing you to select one or more user roles using a customizable field.
Description
This plugin helps you out if you need to have the ability to select one or more user roles. Roles can be chosen with a select element (single or multiple choice), checkboxes or radio buttons. Roles can be returned as a role name or a role object.
You also have the option of specifying allowed roles. This lets you control the roles users are allowed to select.

For Developers
The plugin allows you to specify the roles that can be selected but there is also a hook which allows for further changes. The acfrsf/allowed_roles filter allows you to modify the set of shown roles easily like so:
add_filter('acfrsf/allowed_roles', 'my_role_filter', 10, 2 );
function my_role_filter( $roles, $field ) {
if( current_user_can( 'activate_plugins' ) ) {
$roles = array(); // This will enable all roles
}
else {
unset( $roles['administrator'] );
}
return $roles;
}
