When encountering issues with a PHP form submission, what steps can be taken to troubleshoot and identify the root cause of the problem, especially in cases involving third-party scripts or plugins?

To troubleshoot PHP form submission issues involving third-party scripts or plugins, you can start by checking for any error messages in the server logs or browser console. Make sure that all required fields are properly validated and that the form data is being processed correctly by the PHP script. Additionally, disable any third-party scripts or plugins one by one to identify if any of them are causing conflicts. 

// Example PHP code snippet to troubleshoot form submission issues

// Check for any error messages in server logs or browser console
error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set('display_errors', 1);

// Validate form data
if ($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "POST") {
    // Process form data
    // Add your form processing logic here
}
