How can PHP beginners effectively navigate and troubleshoot CMS-related problems like email delivery issues?

To troubleshoot email delivery issues in a PHP-based CMS, beginners can start by checking the email configuration settings in the CMS admin panel. Ensure that the SMTP server, port, username, and password are correctly set up. Additionally, verify that the email function in PHP is working properly by sending a test email from a simple PHP script. 

// Example PHP code snippet to send a test email
$to = "recipient@example.com";
$subject = "Test Email";
$message = "This is a test email.";
$headers = "From: sender@example.com";

// Send email
if (mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers)) {
    echo "Email sent successfully.";
} else {
    echo "Email delivery failed. Please check your email configuration settings.";
}
