I've tested this configuration, but since all php requests pass in (
location ~ \.php$ ) and all requests are sent to /index.php with
try_files, this doesn't work.

For example, all requests to /products are handle with /index.php with try_files

location / {
  try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php;
}

location ~ \.php$ {
  fastcgi_pass ...
  fastcgi_cache one;
  fastcgi_cache_valid 200 20m;
  ....
}

If I add:

location = /products {
  fastcgi_pass ...
  fastcgi_cache_valid 1h;
   ...
}

A request to /products get the value from .php location (
fastcgi_cache_valid 200 10m; )
If I remove  fastcgi_cache_valid from .php location, all requests I
get are MISS.

Any ideas to accomplished this?

Thanks
