Hi, I want to speed up my WordPress Blog … so I want to rewrite  
“js/css.php” to “.js/.css” files. I tested this rewrite rules …

```auto
## Optimierung - "(css/js).php" to "(css/js)"
        location /wp-content/plugins/wp-special-textboxes/css/ {
                if ($args ~ "ver=(.*)") {
                        rewrite ^/?(.*)
$scheme://$host/wp-content/cache/wp-special-textboxes.css permanent;
                }
        }
        location /wp-content/plugins/wp-special-textboxes/js/ {
                if ($args ~ "ver=(.*)") {
                        rewrite ^/?(.*)
$scheme://$host/wp-content/cache/wstb.js permanent;
                }
        }
```

… but it make only this …

“[http://suckup.de/wp-content/plugins/wp-special-textboxes/css/?ver=3.0.1](http://suckup.de/wp-content/plugins/wp-special-textboxes/css/?ver=3.0.1)”  
 →   
"[http://suckup.de/wp-content/cache/wp-special-textboxes.css?ver=3.0.12](http://suckup.de/wp-content/cache/wp-special-textboxes.css?ver=3.0.12)

… and not thia …

“[http://suckup.de/wp-content/plugins/wp-special-textboxes/css/wp-special-textboxes.css.php?ver=3.0.1](http://suckup.de/wp-content/plugins/wp-special-textboxes/css/wp-special-textboxes.css.php?ver=3.0.1)”  
“[http://suckup.de/wp-content/cache/wp-special-textboxes.css](http://suckup.de/wp-content/cache/wp-special-textboxes.css)”

… can someone, please help ??? Thx!

And I have a second question, I today also tested “varnish” (on port 80)  
with “nginx” (on port 8080), but I have the problem that there are some  
of this entries in the html-sources → "@import  
"[http://suckup.de:8080/?mystique=css";"](http://suckup.de:8080/?mystique=css%22;%22) … so can someone say me how I  
can rewrite the port to 80, thx in advance?
