Checklist

Describe the bug

Changing settings inside the mysql database, eg. automation scripts to allow certain proxy hosts at certain times, and then reloading Nginx does not apply the setting.

Nginx Proxy Manager Version

2.9.6

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

$ docker exec -it $npmdb mysql -u root -p
use npm;
update proxy_host set access_list_id=1 where id=16;

$ docker exec -it $npm nginx -s reload

Expected behavior

Disabling a proxy host from the DB should actually disable it on reload of nginx, not just show as disabled on the frontend UI, or I'm just not seeing an easier way of interacting with the backend using the CLI.

@chaptergy commented on GitHub (Aug 4, 2021):

This is not a bug and will not be implemented, since continuously checking the database for any changes introduces a huge computational overhead which is in no way proportional to the usefulness of this. Only NPM should modify the database.
If you want to automate things, please just use the api which unfortunately not documented, but it shouldn't be too hard to extract this information from the JSON schema and using your browsers developer console.
