How to change url php parameter to subdomain and as a variable

i want to do it but i don't know how to, i've tried a lots of tutorials but doesn't work for me.

I have a website (PHP), that show several info depending of a parameter on URL (i interpret it with php) like this:

example.com/about.php?some=1

i want to change the URL to:

some.example.com/about.php

and get the subdomain name (some) and use it as a PHP variable.

Important: i should use this function on all my website (as a $_SESSION variable but through URL)

Solution

  • You can extract the subdomain from the SERVER_NAME environment variable:

    $subdomin = (explode('.', $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']))[0];
var_dump($subdomain);

    So if you hit some.domain.com, you'll get:

    string(4) "some"
