How can developers effectively troubleshoot and debug PHP scripts when encountering errors related to form submission and conditional statements?

When encountering errors related to form submission and conditional statements in PHP scripts, developers can effectively troubleshoot and debug by checking the form data being submitted, ensuring that conditional statements are properly structured and evaluating the logic flow of the script. 

// Example PHP code snippet for troubleshooting form submission and conditional statements

if ($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "POST") {
    // Check if form data is being submitted
    if (isset($_POST["submit"])) {
        // Process form data
        $username = $_POST["username"];
        
        // Check conditional statements
        if ($username == "admin") {
            echo "Welcome, Admin!";
        } else {
            echo "Invalid username";
        }
    } else {
        echo "Form not submitted";
    }
}
