We are using a WordPress application with Nginx as web-server. Currently  
we  
are accessing profile page as [http://geo.mysite.com/members/geouser/](http://geo.mysite.com/members/geouser/) and  
is  
working fine.

Can anyone please help me to accomplish the following that is when we  
access profile page, in WordPress its should go to the url  
_[http://geo.mysite.com/members/](http://geo.mysite.com/members/)  
 [http://geo.mysite.com/members/](http://geo.mysite.com/members/)geouser/_ but in browser or in address  
bar  
in browser it should not display something like  
_[http://geo.mysite.com/members/](http://geo.mysite.com/members/)  
 [http://geo.mysite.com/members/](http://geo.mysite.com/members/)geouser123_ or  
_[http://geo.mysite.com/members/](http://geo.mysite.com/members/)  
 [http://geo.mysite.com/members/](http://geo.mysite.com/members/)user123/_ etc…

So our need is in browser it should either hide or change real name but  
inside application it should point correctly.

Can anyone please help on it.

Thanks  
Geo
