You can use apache `mod rewrite` to hide `user.php?name=` if your web server is apache — Yasii, Jan 26 '19 at 07:59

This is the basic rule to hide user.php?name= from the URL. Put this in your root .htaccess file.

mod_rewrite must be enabled with PHP and this will work for the PHP version higher than 5.2.6.

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ user.php?name=$1 [L]

you can use .htaccess like this

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ user.php?name=$1 [QSA]

and then for get user

<?php 
 $user = $_GET['name'];
?>
