Can some explain how this works?

$xblgold = $xblgold == 1 ? "Yes" : "No";
echo $xblgold;

It is a alternative if else construction.

You can write it also like:

if($xblgold == 1) {
    $xblgold == "Yes";
} else {
    $xblgold == "No";
}

it´s the same as

if($xblgold == 1){
   $xblgold = "Yes";
}else{
   $xblgold = "No";
}
