Hi @Gregory_Saumier-Finc ! We can indeed edit the nginx configuration, however keep in mind that restarting nginx will revert the configuration our default. [Here’s a guide on that](https://community.kinsta.com/t/nginx-configuration-for-bedrock/201/2).

[We do have this feature request here](https://community.kinsta.com/t/ability-to-upload-custom-nginx-rules/378). Another thing to note is that nginx configurations are not transferrable to or from Kinsta’s live sites.
