33,512 PointsPHP switch statements are written like this:
<?php
switch ( /* some kind of condition or variable */ ) {
case ( /* some value */ ):
// do something if the condition/variable equals this value
break;
case ( /* another value */ ):
// do this is the condition equals this other value
break;
default:
// do this if none of the other cases equal the condition
}
So this is probably something along the lines of:
<?php
switch ($role) {
case "subscriber":
// do something
break;
case "admin":
// do something else
break;
// etc.
}
