Detailed configuration of Nginx supporting both Http and Https

It is almost a standard feature for websites nowadays to support Https, and Nginx can support the Https function very well. The following is a configuration that supports both Http and Https functions.

It should be noted that since Https is chosen to ensure communication security, there is no need to use Http for communication. The Http method is also supported in the URL, mainly for users who do not know whether the website supports Https or use Http to access it. At this time, the Nginx backend needs to automatically convert the Http request into Https, so that it can support Http and ensure communication security.

Without further ado, here is a configuration of Nginx supporting Http and Https. This is the configuration of my WordPress website supporting Https. You can refer to it.

server
{
  # Enable Https
  listen 443 ssl;
  # Configure the certificate. I won’t go into details about how to apply for a free certificate. Search for Tencent Cloud or Alibaba Cloud free certificate application at night ssl_certificate /etc/nginx/conf.d/cert/4351595_www.xxx.pem;

  # This is used to include other configurations include extra/*.conf;
