Answer 2

First, you describe the locations in the usual way, in which you specify how to handle different paths on the site.
After the usual locations at the very end, you make the following location:

location ~ /*\.(.*) {  			
     root "/var/www/path_to_site/";	
}

In the above example, the path after root needs to be corrected to your own.
With this configuration, regular locations will be checked first, and if none of them work, then a file with any extension will be given.
For example, you can first set locations for html pages, for php files, for jpg files, for various redirects depending on the address of the requested page, etc., and then for everything else (in this case, for any files) that did not fall under separate regulations.
