Issue Nginx url rewriting not working

[capps]

Server operating system version

Alma Linux

Plesk version and microupdate number

Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70

I am trying to get the following rule to work for a domain:

try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php$is_args$query_string;

When i add that rule in Additional nginx directives only the homepage works. The other pages gives me Plesk 404.

But when I add the same code in /var/www/vhosts/system/domain.com/conf/nginx.conf under /

location / {
...
try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php$is_args$query_string;
}

Restart nginx, everything works fine.

But I will lose these setting the moment I update the PHP version for example.
So how can I het this to work in Additional nginx directives?

Did you wrap the directive rule in a location block too when adding to the Additional nginx directives in Plesk?
