mysql - How do I remove the query string in PHP?

Solution:

PHP provides a nice helper method called parse_url to get certain parts of an url:

// $actual_link = 'www.stackoverflow.com/test';
$urlParts = parse_url($actual_link);
$formattedUrl = $urlParts['host']; // www.stackoverflow.com

Docs: https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.parse-url.php

Solution:

Use strtok()

like this: $baseUrl = strtok($actual_link, '?');
