pH7CMS is included with 34 modules and based on its homemade framework (pH7Framework). It is also the first Professional, free and open source European Social Dating Site Builder Software and the first choice for creating enterprise level Dating Apps/Service or social networking sites.

In order to get pH7CMS working on nginx server, you need to add some custom nginx configuration.

Create /etc/nginx/ph7cms.conf and add the following:

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

Please note that the above code is the strict minimum and obviously you can add more by comparing with the main Apache .htaccess file.

Now in your nginx server configuration you will have to include ph7cms.conf file to complete the configuration like below:

In file, e.g., /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/yoursite.conf for Ubuntu and other OS based on Debian or /etc/nginx/conf.d/yoursite.conf for CentOS and other OS based on Red Hat.

server {
    # Port number. In most cases, 80 for HTTP and 443 for HTTPS
    listen 80;

    server_name www.yoursite.com;
    root /var/www/ph7cms_public_root;
    index index.php; #you can use index.ph7; for hidding the *.php ...
    client_max_body_size 50M;

    error_log /var/log/nginx/yoursite.error.log;
    access_log /var/log/nginx/yoursite.access.log;

    # Include ph7cms.conf. You can also directly add the "location" rule instead of including the conf file
    include /etc/nginx/ph7cms.conf;
}

For more information, please refer to the nginx documentation.

You can find and add other languages on the I18N repo.
