Answer 1

The following documentation explains how to do this in a tutorial: https://dev.liferay.com/develop/learning-paths/mvc/-/knowledge_base/6-2/making-urls-friendly

Answer 2

I have not tried it, but this parameter from the Liferay documentation (page 189, section "DEFAULT USER PRIVATE LAYOUTS") sounds nice:

default.user.private.layout.friendly.url=/home

There is also one for Guest users.

I documented the steps for this 2 years ago on my blog just in case I need it again. Here you go: http://elshawwa.blogspot.com/2009/05/liferay-virtual-hosting-friendly-url.html
