Multi tool use

Django: mulitselect options not prepopulating in html

I'm using django-multiselect. On the html, all of the items are showing, but the ones that are already checked are not showing that they are checked. I was looking at the documentation, but it's coming prechecked. In particular this line of code isn't working: {% if value in myroles %}checked="checked"{% endif %} Can someone see what I did wrong?

django-multiselect

{% if value in myroles %}checked="checked"{% endif %}

html

{% for value, text in form.role.field.choices %}


models.py

aaa= 1
bbb= 2
ccc= 3
ddd= 4
eee= 5
ROLE_CHOICES = (
(aaa, 'AAA'),
(bbb, 'BBB'),
(ccc, 'CCC'),
(ddd, 'DDD'),
(eee, 'EEE'),
)

class myClass(models.Model):
user = models.OneToOneField(User, on_delete=models.CASCADE, primary_key=True)
role = MultiSelectField(choices=ROLE_CHOICES, default=True)


When I run this code on the html page:

{% for i in myroles %}
{{ i }}{{ value }}
{% endfor %}


I get an output of 11
This makes me confused why my above if statement doesn't work.

11

checked="checked"
