.htaccess deprecation and WPEngine Nginx rules

    So, PHP 7.4 has deprecated .htaccess files, and WPEngine is not allowing anything but standards rulesets in the .htaccess files. Instead, WPEngine is only using Nginx rules to replace any non-wordpress standard .htaccess settings.

    What rules do I tell WPEngine to set? It would replace – SetEnvIf Authorization “(.*)” HTTP_AUTHORIZATION=$1

    or

    RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} ^(.*)
    RewriteRule ^(.*) – [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%1]

    thanks in advance.

    for reference – .htaccess deprecation.

    Hi @joelwolfgang , thanks for posting.

    I’ve tried to use this plugin on an nginx based server on Vultr. There’s no .htaccess there, and i just need to configure the wp-config.php file. I didn’t config the .htaccess since there’s no .htaccess there.

    Or, have you solved this issue? The WPEngine staffs are very nice people. They used to answer technical stuff very well. If you haven’t solved the issue, it might be good idea to ask them about this.

    Best,
    Bagus
