Simplify the very long if statement in PHP
1
$gateway_site_id = $_POST['gateway_site_id'];
$site_location = $_POST['site_location'];
$city = $_POST['city'];
$contact = $_POST['gateway_site_id'];
$date_installed = $_POST['date_installed'];
$care_of = $_POST['care_of'];
$notes = $_POST['notes'];
$gateway_username = $_POST['gateway_username'];
if(empty($gateway_username)){
$gateway_username="N/A";
}if(empty($notes)){
$notes="N/A";
}if(empty($care_of)){
$care_of="N/A";
}if(empty($date_installed)){
$date_installed="N/A";
}if(empty($city)){
$city="N/A";
}if(empty($site_location)){
$site_location="N/A";
}if(empty($gateway_site_id)){
$gateway_site_id="N/A";
}
When I submit my form, I just want to set empty fields with N/A.
My code is working but I think its too long, is there a way to simplify it?

Check emptiness with ternary operator and write like this:
$gateway_site_id = $_POST['gateway_site_id'] ?: 'N/A' ;
// ...
$gateway_username = $_POST['gateway_username'] ?: 'N/A';
// all `if`s can be removed

Something like this:
$required = ['gateway_site_id', 'site_location', 'city', 'gateway_site_id', 'date_installed', 'care_of', 'notes','gateway_username'];
foreach ($required as $req)
${$req} = isset($_POST[$req]) ? $_POST[$req] : 'NA';
