You change the relationship to a many-to-many instead of a one-to-many, then you can add as many roles as you like to each user.

@Tray2 what if I creating a function changeRole ?

public function changeRole(RoleRequest $request, User $profile)
    {
        $data = $request->validated();

        $student= User::STUDENT;
        $lecturer = User::LECTURER;
        $data['role'] = $student;
        dd($data);
        if ($role == $lecturer) {


            $profile->update($data);

            return redirect()->route('lpp.index')->with('success', 'congrast');
        }
    }

notes: the code is still not finished because, there is an error in the logic

@mhmmdva No, the user can have two roles at the same time, that means that you need to implement it properly, and changing the user role will give you a headache.

the simplest change is to alter the column on the database to include a "student-lecturer" role then in your code where you need to check permissions for instance "are they a student" you would need to check are they a student or are they a student-lecturer. Or are they lecturer or are they a student+lecturer, rather than just checking just one role, you now have to check to 2 possible values.
