shorthand php if{} ELSE IF{} else{} [duplicate]
You're looking for ternary statements.
Syntax:
$condition ? $value_if_true : $value_if_false
Syntax for nested ternary statements:
$a ? $b : ( $c ? $d : ( $e ? $f : $g ) )
Just a warning, nested ternary statements are hard to read, so it's recommended to unnested ternary statements.
You can see this Ternary operator. Good when you have an if/else, but bad readability if you do more.
Alternative syntax. This syntax is useful when you use html/php in the same code. It helps us to see the end of if/foreach/while...
switch/case. The best is probably to post some code to see if it could be shortened.
