Did you restart the nginx after the changes?

In my setup I use the below rules: # IPS REWRITE RULES location / { try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args; } # IPS API location /api/ { try_files $uri $uri/ /api/index.php?$args; } # IPS PHP/CGI PROTECTION location ~ ^/uploads/.*\.(?:php\d*|phtml)$ { deny all; } location ~ ^/datastore/.*\.(?:php\d*|phtml)$ { deny all; }
