773 PointsI do not see the correct default output.
What is wrong with my code.?
<?php
//Available roles: admin, editor, author, subscriber
if (!isset($role)) {
$role = 'subscriber';
}
//change to switch statement
switch($role != 'admin') {
case "admin":
echo "As an admin, you can add, edit, or delete any post.";
break;
default:
echo "You do not have access to this page. Please contact your administrator.";
break;
}
?>

5,033 PointsThe problem with your code is the argument supplied to the switch statement - you are evaluating whether role is equal to 'admin' or not, which should be handled in the switch itself. . If you just pass it the $role variable like this:
switch($role) {
///Add your code here
}
then it will work fine.
