WP-AppKit - NGINX Rules

v3
#1

Hi

I use EE for a few sites. Love it. Works great.

I am using a WP plugin called WP-AppKit which helps build my site into a Native Android/iOS App.

Be default, it works with Apache. However it is compatible with NGINX.

The plugin requires that I insert the following directives into my NGINX config.

I used the ee site edit domain name to add the following lines:

location ~ .*/wp-appkit/app/config.(js|xml) { try_files $uri /index.php?$args; }

location ~ ./wp-appkit/app/themes/. { try_files $uri /index.php?$args; }

location ~ ./wp-appkit/app/addons/. { try_files $uri /index.php?$args; }

Saved the file and restarted NGINX (which EE does for us). No problem.

However, when i try reach the file I need, I still get an NGINX 404 error.

Is there somewhere else that I need to add these rules?

ask Dev where to add These rules looks like you need to create a separate file with name wp-appkit.conf in /etc/nginx/common with these rules and then add it in nano /etc/nginx/sites-available/example.com like this include /etc/nginx/common/wp-appkit.conf;
