Can't display database records - php

Question

I want to echo sql database records in my page and I am using this code. When I run it doesn't display the result from the db. I have records in the database that match the criteria. I am new in php and sql so please tell where I have mistakes.
session_start();
if (!isset($_SESSION['name'])) {
header('Location:vhod.php');
exit;
}
$pageTitle = 'СЪОБЩЕНИЯ';
include 'includes/header.html';
$email = $_SESSION['email'];
$name = $_SESSION['name'];
include 'php/db_connect.php';
$msgs = '';
$query = 'SELECT `timestamp`, `to`, `sender`, `subject`, `msg` FROM msg WHERE `to`="$name"';
$result = mysqli_query($conn, $query);
if (mysqli_num_rows($result) > 0) {
while($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result)) {
$msgs = "ДАТА: " . $row["timestamp"] . " >> От: " . $row["sender"] . " >> Тема: " . $row["subj"] . " >> Съобщение: " . $row["msg"] . "<br>";
}
} else {
$msgs = "Нямате съобщения :(";
}

try modifying the lower part of your code like this.
$msgs = '';
$query = "SELECT * FROM msg WHERE to=$name";
$result = mysqli_query($conn, $query);
if (mysqli_num_rows($result) > 0) {
while($row = mysqli_fetch_assoc($result)) {
$msgs = "ДАТА: " . $row['timestamp'] . " >> От: " . $row['sender'] . " >> Тема: " . $row['subj'] . " >> Съобщение: " . $row['msg'] . "<br>";
}
} else {
$msgs = "Нямате съобщения :(";
}
