Im pretty sure i dod the code correct, is asks for the original statement to be the "Default" i did this. if some one can help id be very grateful
<?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 $role:
echo "You do not have access to this page. Please contact administrator.";
break;
case 'admin':
echo 'As an admin, you can add, edit, or delete any post.';
break;

230,688 PointsThere should not be a case that uses the variable $role, since that will always match and defeat the purpose of the switch.
Just remove that entire case section and you'll pass task 1.
