For example, this page: [http://wiki.nginx.org/WordPress](http://wiki.nginx.org/WordPress) In the Google cache: [http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:\_fqHWtIaxmsJ:wiki.nginx.org/WordPress+&cd=1&hl=zh-CN&ct=clnk](http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:_fqHWtIaxmsJ:wiki.nginx.org/WordPress+&cd=1&hl=zh-CN&ct=clnk) It contains the following lines: > > # include the “?$args” part so non-default permalinks doesn’t break when using query string try\_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args; > > try\_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args; But it was removed in the latest version of wiki: [http://wiki.nginx.org/WordPress](http://wiki.nginx.org/WordPress) Sometimes we want to know why they are changed, and when they have removed. Anyone mind to explain? ---

Can it be configured differently to allow non-authenticated users access to page histories? As we’re on the topic of historic documentation across a versioned piece of software like nginx, I’d like to put in a plea here for something to be worked out to expose the mapping of config directives to the version in which they were introduced, or when their behaviours changed - in a _structured_ format. IMHO that’s a really major documentation flaw in both the wiki and the official documentation, as the inline notes about version applicability are both sparse and not formalised/structured at all usefully. ## Jonathan Jonathan M. // Oxford, London, UK > **[Jonathan Matthews :: Words Typed, Great Rates For Cash](https://www.jpluscplusm.com)** ---

In official documentation we’ve introduced formal tag, e.g. [http://trac.nginx.org/nginx/browser/nginx\_org/xml/en/docs/http/ngx\_http\_ssl\_module.xml#L219](http://trac.nginx.org/nginx/browser/nginx_org/xml/en/docs/http/ngx_http_ssl_module.xml#L219) Though in more or less nontrivial cases like new directive parameters and so on - inline notes are unavoidable. – Maxim D. > **[F5 NGINX: Built for cloud-native apps.
