Has this been solved? I’ve been trying to figure it out as well. Everything I’ve found is for wordpress-mu and I’m not sure what needs to be changed to use it with regular wordpress.
I found this http://insecure.no/2009/01/wordpress-and-bbpress-nice-url-rewrite-for-nginx/ it sort of works. pretty permalinks work but any attached files such as the css sheet or jquery.js returns a 404 not found error. Any Ideas?
