Wordpress set permalink ".html" wordpress.

Centmin Mod default static files include file at /usr/local/nginx/conf/staticfiles.conf handles .html files via Nginx. But by using wordpress with .html extensions you tell Nginx not to serve .html files and serve via PHP-FPM (not ideal as it reduces performance if you use permalinks with .html extensions and thus use PHP-FPM to server .html files)

If you must use .html extension permalinks, you need to comment out the .html location context from /usr/local/nginx/conf/staticfiles.conf and restart Nginx server as illustrated below with hash # in front

Code:

    location ~* \.(3gp|gif|jpg|jpeg|png|ico|wmv|avi|asf|asx|mpg|mpeg|mp4|pls|mp3|mid|wav|swf|flv|exe|zip|tar|rar|gz|tgz|bz2|uha|7z|doc|docx|xls|xlsx|pdf|iso)$ {
        gzip_static off;
        #add_header Pragma public;
        add_header Cache-Control "public, must-revalidate, proxy-revalidate";
        access_log off;
        expires 30d;
        break;
        }

    location ~* \.(js)$ {
        #add_header Pragma public;
        add_header Cache-Control "public, must-revalidate, proxy-revalidate";
        access_log off;
        expires 30d;
        break;
        }

    location ~* \.(css)$ {
        #add_header Pragma public;
        add_header Cache-Control "public, must-revalidate, proxy-revalidate";
        access_log off;
        expires 30d;
        break;
        }

    #location ~* \.(html|htm|txt)$ {
        #add_header Pragma public;
        #add_header Cache-Control "public, must-revalidate, proxy-revalidate";
        #access_log off;
        #expires 1d;
       # break;
       # }

    location ~* \.(eot|svg|ttf|woff)$ {
        #add_header Pragma public;
        add_header Cache-Control "public, must-revalidate, proxy-revalidate";
        access_log off;
        expires 30d;
        break;
        }

You can also use SSH command shortcut below to launch nano linux text editor and edit file /usr/local/nginx/conf/staticfiles.conf
