title: Nginx configuration for Magento running in subfolder
body: <p>I want to install additional copy of Magento to subfolder. It should work with URL rewrites. Please, tel me what changes I should do in default config (could be found here also - <a href="http://www.magentocommerce.com/wiki/1_-_installation_and_configuration/configuring_nginx_for_magento" rel="nofollow">http://www.magentocommerce.com/wiki/1_-_installation_and_configuration/configuring_nginx_for_magento</a>):</p>
