nginx + wordpress rewrite question

[Ray]

Not sure whether this would help, but WP usually is able to handle
"rewriting" by itself.

I only need this config to get WP to work:

location /
 {
 if (!-e $request_filename) {
 rewrite ^.*$ /index.php last;
 }
 }

location ~ \.php$
 {
 fastcgi_pass (your php socket/port here);
 }

And WP has to be configured correctly in Settings > Permalinks (like what
Hone Watson said).

Ray.
