NGINX

info

• Please join the Discord server before reporting an issue with your reverse proxy setup on GitHub.
• Audiobookshelf requires a websocket connection.
• Using a subfolder is supported with no additional changes but the path must be /audiobookshelf (this is not changeable). See discussion
• Why do I need to set up my own remote access?

Add this to your NGINX site config after changing the relevant parts in the < > brackets and inserting your certificate paths.
