devknob Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 How would I set something up to where each user has a URL like website.com/username Should I be making folders, or is there a better way?

redbullmarky Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 have a google around for mod_rewrite (if you're on an Apache web server), as this is the general approach of most similar setups (eg, myspace). the idea is that instead of domain.com/username pointing to a username folder, it ACTUALLY points to something like domain.com/user.php?username=whatever in the background.
