Adding a location block to your Nginx configuration with a try_files directive like the one below will allow URLs without php or html extensions to work correctly:
location / {
try_files $uri $uri/ $uri.html $uri.php;
}
For more information on how the try_files directive works, check out this tutorial:
Nginx is one of the most popular web servers in the world. In this guide, we will discuss how Nginx selects the server and location block that will handle a given client's request. We will go over the algorithm in place, as well as the directives and options you can use to modify the selection process.
