    Starting nginx: nginx: [emerg] "location" directive is not allowed here in /usr/local/nginx/conf/staticfiles.conf:3

    Line 3 happens to be

    what does your full nginx vhost domain conf look like ? possibly missing a curly brace in your vhost so it included the staticfiles.conf include in it's location ?

    Final result is the last code box ;)

    Well the stock one provided (that was generated by Centmin Mod) was this

    PHP:

          root /home/nginx/domains/bannedfromtaz.com/public;

          # prevent access to ./directories and files
          location ~ (?:^|/)\. {

      }

          location / {

          #include /usr/local/nginx/conf/errorpage.conf;
          include /usr/local/nginx/conf/vts_server.conf;
    }
    I simple amended by replacing line 34 with this as told by Flarum here ( Installation )

    PHP:
        location / { try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$query_string; }
            location /api { try_files $uri $uri/ /api.php?$query_string; }

        }
      
            location ~* \.html$ {

        }

                add_header Cache-Control "public, must-revalidate, proxy-revalidate";
        }

            gzip on;

            gzip_buffers 16 8k;
            gzip_disable "MSIE [1-6]\.(?!.*SV1)";
    The end result was this :)

    @Peace-Keeper you don't need php locations as php.conf include file takes care of it all so you can do just

    don't need all gzip stuff too as that is done out of box server wide

    also you had a broken location from the default location / {} out of box stuff you can remove

    don't need prevent ./ directories too as include file drop.conf has all security done

    don't need html and image locations as staticfiles.conf include takes care of it all

    Code:
    # Centmin Mod Getting Started Guide
# must read http://centminmod.com/getstarted.html

# redirect from non-www to www
# uncomment, save file and restart Nginx to enable
# if unsure use return 302 before using return 301

#            server_name bannedfromtaz.com;
#            return 301 $scheme://www.bannedfromtaz.com$request_uri;
#       }

    @eva2000 So they basically instructed me to add a lot of stuff I didn't need or that you had thought of ahead and included in Centmin Mod's configuration? Huh...

    I guess there is only 1 question....

    Where is the donate button? :D

    Centmin Mod Nginx tries to be smarter out of the box so config vhost files aren't as messy and can be applied to many nginx vhosts. Some folks may have trickier configurations, so you can also try making a copy of the default include files like php.conf and making on specific site changes and just change to that copied include file instead of defaults if need be :)
