the url in your config has to match the fqdn of your site. Also, I don't believe the https is necessary in that config as you are not using https in your nginx config.

Ran in to an issue during an upgrade. What should I be running to get upgraded? I'm on v1.7.5 according to the Dashboard.

I had taken a snapshot of this VM and was able to revert, so I'm back up and running on v1.7.x

Within each topic, I'm interested in seeing a threaded view of posts in that topic. Here is a markup.
Adding the option to toggle this on/off would be in Admin/Settings/Posts
I have several older/grumpier board members that miss their old ubb.threads and want to see 'who has replied and in what order'. Similarly, those same users would want this threaded type view of each Topic on the Home page, however I am currently force feeding Magazine layout to see if I can convert them at least a little.
@pitaj yes, but I didn't refresh my admin page afterwards. Thank you again!
perfect! where in the admin do i enter the api info? i dont see a section in the plugins drop down.
@pitaj Thank you, I installed this and restarted. If I paste the url
Open Forum
https://i.imgur.com/zw6fujO
It just looks like that in my composer, it doesn't retrieve the content from the url and display it, like it does below.
How do I get this working? I am trying to allow embed of gifv. Here, it embeds just fine. On my board, it just pastes as a hyperlink.
Lodge this one under annoyances then for 1.7.x 
Glad I found this thread.
