 * I’m using Digital Ocean, Serverpilot and Cloudflare.
 * Cloudflare is connected correctly and shows browser caching is set up, pagespeed
   and your report says it isn’t, putting the suggested code into the ngnix.conf
   gives the error ” nginx: [emerg] “location” directive is not allowed here…”.
 * The instructions on where to place the code are very unclear, “Add the code above
   to the http or inside server section in the file.” I couldn’t see any server 
   section so I put it in the http section.

 * Hi [@putterill](https://wordpress.org/support/users/putterill/),
 * You need to add the configuration to the server section of your host, it is usually
   located in the file /etc/nginx/site-enabled/[your-site].conf file. But it might
   be a different location, depending on the OS and the server configuration.
 * Best regards,
    Anton
