if you test it by clicking button on selected solid layer it will add element effect to it.

var dialog = new Window("dialog");
dialog.text = "Dialog";
dialog.orientation = "column";
dialog.alignChildren = ["center","top"];
dialog.spacing = 10;
dialog.margins = 16;
var checkbox1 = dialog.add("checkbox", undefined, undefined, {name: "checkbox1"});
checkbox1.text = "Enable Fog";
var checkbox2 = dialog.add("checkbox", undefined, undefined, {name: "checkbox2"});
checkbox2.text = "Checkbox";
var checkbox3 = dialog.add("checkbox", undefined, undefined, {name: "checkbox3"});
checkbox3.text = "Checkbox";
var checkbox4 = dialog.add("checkbox", undefined, undefined, {name: "checkbox4"});
checkbox4.text = "Checkbox";
var checkbox5 = dialog.add("checkbox", undefined, undefined, {name: "checkbox5"});
checkbox5.text = "Checkbox";
var button1 = dialog.add("button", undefined, undefined, {name: "button1"});
button1.text = "Button";
button1.onClick = function () {
function setFx(lyr)
{
var eg = lyr.property("ADBE Effect Parade");
var fx = eg.addProperty("VIDEOCOPILOT 3DArray");
fx.name = "Element"
fx.enabled = true;
// Element/Scene Settings This property cannot be Scripted!
}
if (checkbox1.value == true) {
// alert ("checkbox1");
// fx.property("VIDEOCOPILOT 3DArray-1202").setValue(1);//Enable Fog
}else if (checkbox2.value == true) {
alert ("checkbox2");
}else if (checkbox3.value == true) {
alert ("checkbox3");
}else if (checkbox4.value == true) {
alert ("checkbox4");
}else if (checkbox5.value == true) {
alert ("checkbox5");
} else {
// alert ("na");
}
if ( app.project.activeItem instanceof CompItem) {
var sl = app.project.activeItem.selectedLayers;
if ( sl.length>0){
setFx(sl[0]);

only one value from checkbox gets added when checked why isn't others being added
if (checkbox1.value == true) {
// alert ("checkbox1");
fx.property("VIDEOCOPILOT 3DArray-1202").setValue(1);//Enable Fog
}else if (checkbox2.value == true) {
// alert ("checkbox2");
fx.property("VIDEOCOPILOT 3DArray-1458").setValue(2000000);//Camera Far Plane
}else if (checkbox3.value == true) {
alert ("checkbox3");
}else if (checkbox4.value == true) {
alert ("checkbox4");
}else if (checkbox5.value == true) {
alert ("checkbox5");
} else {
// alert ("na");
}

It sounds like maybe you just need a bunch of if statements, rather than a cascading if/else, like this:
if (checkbox1.value == true) {
// checkbox 1 code
}
if (checkbox2.value == true) {
// checkbox 2 code
}
if (checkbox3.value == true) {
// checkbox 3 code
}
// etc.
