 * Hello Donncha,
 * Your great plugin autogenerateв apache’s .htaccess config.
    Could you spend a
   little time to write correct configuration for nginx?
 * It is known that we can to find many 3rd party solutions by Google, but I want
   to get configuration from you to make sure that everything is correct!
 * I think many people would agree with me 🙂
 * Thanks.

 * I agree too, but I don’t use nginx and don’t have time to write the code that
   supports it. If anyone wants to submit a patch …

 * I’m sure there is sufficient number of specialists to offer comprehensive configuration.
   
   Could you add webserver detection and generate appropriate configuration in new
   plugin version?

 * What about this solution:
 *     ```
       # WP Super Cache rules.
   
       # Enable detection of the .gz extension for statically compressed content.
       # Comment out this line if static gzip support is not compiled into nginx.
       gzip_static on;
   
       set $supercacheuri "";
       set $supercachefile "$document_root/wp-content/cache/supercache/${http_host}${uri}index.html";
       if (-e $supercachefile) {
           set $supercacheuri "/wp-content/cache/supercache/${http_host}${uri}index.html";
       }
   
       # If this is a POST request, pass the request onto WordPress.
       if ($request_method = POST) {
           set $supercacheuri "";
       }
   
       # If there is a query string, serve the uncached version.
       if ($query_string) {
           set $supercacheuri "";
       }
   
       # Logged in users and those who have posted a comment get the non-cached version.
