Tried multiple ways, maybe I'm not understanding the question correctly.
<?php
//Available roles: admin, editor, author, subscriber
if (!isset($role)) {
$role = 'subscriber';
}
//change to switch statement
//if ($role != 'admin') {
// echo "You do not have access to this page. Please contact your administrator.";
//}
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;
}
?>

your code is correct! Maybe it is misinterpreted by the fact that you have commented out the second if-statement. Try to get rid of that and delete the commented out if-statement. I think it's a bug.
