Hello everyone, I have a question I was no table to find an answer to here, or anywhere else.
What would be the necessary configuration for nginx in order for the Better Wp Security plugin to work? I saw on their plugin information they say you have to configure Nginx manually but that’s where they leave it.
I am running 512MB Ram Ubuntu 12.04.3 x32 NGINX is installed, so is Wordpress.
Thanks

@daniellekwint <br>It would be great if that is the case. <br>I have not tried it yet but this is what they say: <br>“Works with Apache, LiteSpeed or NGINX (NGINX will require you to manually edit your virtual host configuration)” <br> <br>Anyone else have experience with this plugin and nginx?
The first page or “dashboard” of the plugin’s settings in your admin area will give you a cut and paste script to copy and paste into your nginx.conf file that is located in the root of your WP site (not the one in your /etc/nginx folder). <br> <br>If you need more instructions than that, I’m going to suggest Apache until you are more familiar with nginx and security. <br> <br>Best of luck! <br> <br>(also, this information is in the plugin’s instructions on its admin pages if I recall. If you aren’t the sort who is into attention to detail and reading documentation until you’ve got it down cold, linux/nginx may not be for you. There are a lot of root kitted zombies out there.)
