Hi there,

I'm trying to get the W3TC Wordpress plugin to work alongside 'Post name' Permalinks, but there appears to be a conflict with the code when I include the W3TC nginx.conf file into the location block.

To enable 'post name' to work for the Wordpress Permalinks, I added:

location / { 
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args; 
}

to the following nginx config file:
/etc/nginx/sites-available/domain.com

which worked brilliantly.

To get W3TC to work, I then added another line of code to include the W3TC nginx.conf file as follows:

location / { 
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args; 
include /home/domain/public_html/nginx.conf; 
}

The problem is that now W3TC works, but the Permalinks don't (I get a 404 error when trying to access a web page in my browser) which means there has to be some conflict somewhere.

I've pasted the W3TC nginx.conf code below:

I'd really appreciate your help on this matter.

Thanks :-)
