 * Not sure if it’s a bug or by design, but nginx rewrites that plugin generates
   is missing $args:
 *     ```
       location / {
       			try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php;
       		}
       ```
   
 * And it should be
 *     ```
       location / {
       			try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args;
       		}
       ```
   
 * What happens when $args is not present, dynamic requests don’t reach server at
   all due to Memcached. We noticed this issue when frontend page builder that uses?
   request to activate wasn’t working. ?request wasn’t reaching server.
 * Interestingly, this was working on homepage but it did not work on other pages
   because of the missing $args.
 * Reviewing [Codex](https://codex.wordpress.org/Nginx), we noticed that they do
   included $args in the recommended rewrites and it did fix issues for us.
 * Thought I report this in case it’s a bug, or if someone is having issue with 
   their requests to save time troubleshooting.
