How to hide folder path in nginx url?

Question

Nginx

Good afternoon! Tell me how to hide the path to the folder in the url. Now I have it like this http://domain.ru/main/help.php , and I need http://domain.ru/help.php

Answer 1

If only a few files are needed in the /main/ folder. If you need to specify a different root for all php files.
rewrite ^/(help|file1|file2)\.php$ /main/$1.php;

location ~ \.php$ {
    root /var/www/main;
    
    fastcgi_pass ...;
    include fastcgi_params;
}
