can anyone helping me to showing first name/word on navigation? i've trying this code
<div class="d-sm-none d-lg-inline-block">Welcome, <?php $string = $this->session->userdata('name'); echo $firstCharacter = $string[0]; ?></div></a>

sorry for my bad english and i'm new to php things. and thanks for helping me before
You could use regular expressions, like this:
echo preg_replace('/^([^\s]+)\s*.*$/', '$1', $string);
or split it:
echo (explode(' ', $string))[0];
or 'tok' it:
echo strtok($string, " ")
