What could be causing the issue of receiving empty emails when using PHPMailer to send form data?

The issue of receiving empty emails when using PHPMailer to send form data could be caused by not properly setting the email content in the PHP script. To solve this issue, make sure to properly set the email body with the form data before sending the email using PHPMailer. 

<?php
require 'vendor/autoload.php';

// Initialize PHPMailer
$mail = new PHPMailer(true);

// Set up SMTP
$mail->isSMTP();
$mail->Host = 'smtp.example.com';
$mail->SMTPAuth = true;
$mail->Username = 'your@example.com';
$mail->Password = 'your_password';
$mail->SMTPSecure = 'tls';
$mail->Port = 587;

// Set email content
$mail->setFrom('from@example.com', 'Your Name');
$mail->addAddress('to@example.com', 'Recipient Name');
$mail->Subject = 'Form Submission';
$mail->Body = 'Name: ' . $_POST['name'] . '<br>Email: ' . $_POST['email'] . '<br>Message: ' . $_POST['message'];

// Send the email
if(!$mail->send()) {
    echo 'Message could not be sent.';
    echo 'Mailer Error: ' . $mail->ErrorInfo;
} else {
    echo 'Message has been sent';
}
?>
