vic3685 Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 I would love to google my question, but I don't know how this is called.... I want to create URLs for each user of a site with this format: www.mysite.com/user1 Facebook does this, for example. In a static page I'd do it with a folder and index file for each user, but that's not practical if you have too many users. Could you explain how this is done or at least how it is called so I can find myself something to read? Thanks!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ansipants Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 there are subdomain creation scripts out there for this that work with member signups. cPanel Subdomains Creator is one I believe, and its free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vic3685 Posted October 2, 2011 Author Share Posted October 2, 2011 I'm not sure I want subdomains. I mean... do you think Facebook has subdomains for every user page? I think there's got to be another way... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
