709 Points"Create a 'check' for the role of 'admin'?'"
I seem to not be able to understand how to create a check for the role of 'admin' that will qualify other than setting the $role = 'admin'. If I do not set the variable to the needed value, I fail to display the correct message and thus fail to pass the challenge, even if my switch works correctly.
Any insights?
<?php
//Available roles: admin, editor, author, subscriber
if (!isset($role)) {
$role = 'subscriber';
}
//change to switch statement
switch ($role) {
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;
}
?>
