I am getting an error saying my default output is incorrect.
<?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.";
}
?>

20,885 Pointswhy is the switch ($role != 'admin'), that is where the error is, and it should be switch($role)
<?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.";
}
