Does this work better than the "official" nginx config? I'm trying to get vBulletin 5.0.5 running with nginx and php-fpm, but am having trouble with some of the rewrites.

I love you.

Thank you!

Much better than the one that arrives with VB as that doesn't account for a few items this catches.

Works like a charm, unlike the original vhost file...
