Eventually I found out a solution. Below is how I have achieved this.
In my functions.php
file, I have put below code.
add_filter('query_vars', 'add_user_var', 0, 1);
function add_user_var($vars){
$vars[] = 'user';
return $vars;
}
add_rewrite_rule('^user/([^/]+)/?$','index.php?pagename=user&user=$matches[1]','top');
This generally adds a rewrite rule if it finds user
in the URL.
Now I have added a page template file name called as page-user.php
and added below code to grab my query string.
$user = get_query_var('user');
echo $user;
I have created a page in backend admin with slug user
and selected this template for this page.
Hope this helps.
