This is the .htaccess located on /wp-content/plugins/wp-minify/min/ :

RewriteEngine on RewriteRule ^([a-z]=.\*) index.php?$1 [L,NE]

And I’m not able to figure out what should I put on my nginx  
configuration file, this is what I’ve got so far:

rewrite ^/wp-content/plugins/wp-minify/min/([a-z]=.\*)$  
/wp-content/plugins/wp-minify/min/index.php?

(I know it’s incomplete)  
Any ideas?  
Thank you,  
Regards.

If your WordPress installation works, WP Minify does too! There is no  
need for special rewrites.
