Django and WordPress on Nginx

In order to serve WordPress and Django on the same Nginx server, you must use the alias directive to map the location of WordPress to a subdirectory. In the Nginx configuration below, I have WordPress served from the /diamond-blog subdirectory.

\# the upstream component nginx needs to connect to

upstream django-tda-prod \{

server unix:///home/daymon/thediamondapp/prod/thediamondapp/tda\_prod.sock;

\# upstream for wordpress php requests

upstream wordpress-prod-php-handler \{

server unix:/var/run/php/php7.4-fpm.sock;

\# configuration of the server

server \{

server\_name thediamondapp.com www.thediamondapp.com;

gzip\_static on;

client\_max\_body\_size 5M;

charset utf-8;

root /home/daymon/thediamondapp/prod/public/;

\# Only allow connections by domain name

if ( $host !~\* ^(thediamondapp.com|www.thediamondapp.com)$ ) \{

return 444;

\# Django static files

location /static/ \{

alias /home/daymon/thediamondapp/prod/public/static/;

expires 7d;

\# Sitemap

location ~ ^/(?P<file>sitemap-?.\*\\.xml)$ \{

try\_files /$file =404;

\# Favicon

location = /favicon.ico \{

access\_log off;

log\_not\_found off;

\# Send all non-media requests to the Django server.

location / \{

uwsgi\_pass django-tda-prod;

include uwsgi\_params;

\# Serve wordpress from subdirectory

location /diamond-blog \{

alias /home/daymon/thediamondapp/blog/prod;

index index.php;

try\_files $uri $uri/ /diamond-blog/index.php?$args;

location ~ \\.php$ \{

include snippets/fastcgi-php.conf;

fastcgi\_param SCRIPT\_FILENAME $request\_filename;

fastcgi\_pass wordpress-prod-php-handler;

Within the same location block, you’ll want to embed another location block for handling PHP files from WordPress. Since Django doesn’t use PHP, it makes sense to put this location block here.

In this location block, please note how we use the *$request\_filename* variable rather than *$document\_root$fastcgi\_script\_name* according to [Nginx Pitfalls and Common Mistakes][].
