What are best practices for troubleshooting issues with PHP scripts, especially when purchased from a third party?

When troubleshooting PHP scripts purchased from a third party, it's important to first identify the specific issue by checking error logs and debugging messages. Once the issue is identified, make sure to review the script documentation and contact the third party for support if needed. Additionally, testing the script in a controlled environment can help pinpoint the problem.
