How could I modify my .htaccess to make it work as I want?

Question

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l

RewriteRule ^(.+)$ index.php?url=$1 [QSA,L]

This is my current .htaccess. It's to make my MVC framework work (www.domain.com/controller/method).

I need to have link like this: www.domain.com/userName.

How (if it's even possible) do I need to modify htaccess folder to make that happen? Because I really don't want to have links like: www.domain.com/controller/method/userName

Answer 1

Just explode your ?url param see if the first string is userName and handle it properly. Also consider implementing userName as a core-level controller. That would keep everything much more structured

Answer 2

If you are using CodeIgniter then set this up as a route under config/routes. What framework are you using?
