I cannot locate my errors

Its hard to find my errors as i did my best to do it correctly

switch.php 
<?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;
}

Hi Travis! You have a tiny error in the string that you are echoing. Keep in mind that challenges are very strict and must receive back exactly what they are expecting. This includes strings that contain correct spacing, punctuation, and capitalization.

echo 'As an admin, you can add, edit, or delete any post.';  <!-- note the "." at the end of the string -->

Hope this helps! :sparkles:
