You were trying to pass a mysql query where it needed to be a query string

 

Try this instead

<?php
include 'connect.php';

$query = "SELECT * from player where name='Kronus'";
if ($result = mysqli_query($conn, $query)) {

if(mysqli_num_rows($result) > 0){

while ($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result)) {
echo "Kronus's email is " . $row['email'];
} 

} else {
die ("could not select players");
}
    
} else {
die ("query failed");
}

mysqli_close($conn);
?>
