使用.htaccess重写URL以进行登录和配置文件系统

Question

I have a website where the url is localhost/project/profile.php?user=usernameand I am trying to get the url to look like this: localhost/project/username

The most I am able to do is get rid of the .php by using the following code:

Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews

RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /

RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,}\s([^.]+)\.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1 [R,L,NC]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteRule ^ %{REQUEST_URI}.php [L]

but that is not what I need right now. Here is the code that is meant to be changing the url - I got it off of another thread.

Options FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?user=$1 [L,QSA]

but it obviously doesn't work.

I need to be able to go to the url: localhost/project/username and it registers as the original URL localhost/project/profile.php?user=username

** THE ANSWER **

Thanks to Howlin

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^(GET|POST)\ /project/profile\.php\?user=(.*)\ HTTP
RewriteRule ^ /project/%2\? [R=301,L]

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !user=
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /project/profile.php?user=$1 [L]

Answer 1

This should work:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^(GET|POST)\ /project/profile\.php\?user=(.*)\ HTTP
RewriteRule ^ /project/%2\? [R=301,L]

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !user=
RewriteRule ^project/(.*)$ /project/profile.php?user=$1 [L]

The above will change project/profile.php?user=username to project/username and it will load the information from the project/profile.php?user=username page

EDIT:

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^(GET|POST)\ /project/profile\.php\?user=(.*)\ HTTP
RewriteRule ^ /project/%2\? [R=301,L]

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} !user=
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d  
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f  
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /project/profile.php?user=$1 [L]
