如何在Nginx中配置WordPress作为Django项目的子目录？

需求：

• sample.com/ 指向Django项目
• sample.com/wordpress 指向WordPress项目

当前访问sample.com/wordpress出现404 Not Found，现有Nginx配置如下：

server {
    listen 443 ssl default_server;
    server_name sample.com;
    ssl on;
    ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/sample.com/fullchain.pem;
    ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/sample.com/privkey.pem;


    location =/fabicon.ico {access_log off; log_not_found off;}

    location /static{
        alias /usr/share/nginx/html/static;
    }

    location /media{
        alias /usr/share/nginx/html/media;
    }

    location /{
        include proxy_params;
        proxy_pass http://unix:/home/user/project/project/project.sock;
    }

    location /wordpress {
        alias /var/www/wordpress;
        index index.php;

        try_files $uri $uri/ /wordpress/index.php?q=$uri&$args;
    }

    location ~ ^/wordpress/.+\.php$ {
        include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
                fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php/php7.4-fpm.sock;
    }
}

原配置核心问题是用alias映射WordPress目录时，PHP请求的文件路径未正确解析，同时try_files参数设置不符合WordPress的URL重写逻辑。修改后的完整配置如下：

server {
    listen 443 ssl default_server;
    server_name sample.com;
    ssl on;
    ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/sample.com/fullchain.pem;
    ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/sample.com/privkey.pem;


    location =/favicon.ico {access_log off; log_not_found off;} # 修正拼写错误：fabicon → favicon

    location /static{
        alias /usr/share/nginx/html/static;
    }

    location /media{
        alias /usr/share/nginx/html/media;
    }

    location /{
        include proxy_params;
        proxy_pass http://unix:/home/user/project/project/project.sock;
    }

    location /wordpress {
        alias /var/www/wordpress;
        index index.php index.html index.htm; # 补充默认索引类型
        # 调整try_files参数，确保无匹配文件时转发到WordPress入口
        try_files $uri $uri/ /wordpress/index.php?$args;
    }

    location ~ ^/wordpress/.+\.php$ {
        alias /var/www/wordpress; # 新增alias映射，保证文件路径正确
        include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;
        fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php/php7.4-fpm.sock;
        # 强制设置正确的脚本路径，覆盖默认的$document_root拼接逻辑
        fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $request_filename;
    }
}

关键修改说明 #

1. 修正favicon拼写错误：原配置中fabicon.ico为拼写错误，改为favicon.ico避免不必要的404日志。
2. 调整try_files参数：将/wordpress/index.php?q=$uri&$args改为/wordpress/index.php?$args，符合WordPress原生的URL重写规则，避免参数冗余。
3. PHP请求路径修正：在PHP的location块中添加alias /var/www/wordpress，并设置fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $request_filename——因为alias会将/wordpress/xxx.php映射为/var/www/wordpress/xxx.php，而默认的$document_root$fastcgi_script_name会拼接出错误路径，这一步是解决404的核心。

修改完成后，重启Nginx服务生效：

sudo systemctl restart nginx
