Describe the bug

I found that if I put
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $http_host
in my advance config it doesn't take effect. After looking at the saved config file I found that the statement is put outside of the location block. If I manually move the statement into location block it works fine.

I also checked Custom Nginx Configurations section in the documentation, it seems that there is no option to let me customize inside location block.

Nginx Proxy Manager Version

Yeah, that's how the advanced config works. I think there is some weird behavior in nginx where it doesn't apply any headers from outside the location block if there is even a single header set inside the location block. However you should be able to add a custom location / where you can duplicate the stuff you need and add your custom header.

Yes you are right. I can add custom locate / in the settings and it works fine.

Would you mind letting me know how to do it?

I want to access it at / and putting the lines at with that in mind, forwarded to the same ip and the parent proxy host does not solve the problem for me. Can I see what you did?

Thank you, but apparently, my apps worked without needing to insert these but only enabling websocket. Not a professional so don't know the difference except a few lines being added. But if I do need some custom lines I will be sure to add them that way in the future.

Thank you so much!
