I really appreciate this and some of your shell scripts! This comes in handy when I've got to get up and running after a long time away from away from Magento. I'm just not as familiar with Magento's needs as other PHP projects,...thanks very much!

Hi,
I am new to nginx.please help me. My requirement is when opening http://127.0.0.1/bilanaust/employee it have to open this http://127.0.0.1/bilanaust/employee/index.php/.

example http://127.0.0.1/bilanaust/blog http://127.0.0.1/bilanaust/blog/index.php/

Please help.

Thanks, it worked great 👍

thank you!

Would this not cache ALL FILES? Also cart and all dynamic

        try_files /maintenance.html $uri $uri/ @handler; ## If missing pass the URI to Magento's front handler
        expires 30d; ## Assume all files are cachable
    }```

rewrite ^(.+)\.(\d+)\.(css|js)$ $1.$3 last; leads to 404 for files like wp-content/themes/business-elite/inc/js/jquery.mobile-1.3.2.js

Hahahaha... I googled and got my own answer from 5 years ago....
