Title: nginx plugin config: HTTP server -> HTTPS Only vs. Location -> Force HTTPS?
Post by: sjjh on March 04, 2022, 11:49:16 AM
Hello everybody,

I'm currently setting up the nginx plugin as reverse proxy. In the Web UI config I did find the two options
HTTP Server -> HTTPS Only
Location -> Force HTTPS
I'm wondering, what's the difference between these two, when to use which?

Thanks
Simon

One is only for specific subdirectories.
Some people have different applications on different context paths.

Okay, thanks, I see. Makes sense to me. As I currently have a one to one relation between servers and locations this thought didn't cross my mind. :)
