How to remove both .php and .html extensions from url using NGINX?

From what I’ve researched, if you append your /etc/nginx/conf.d/domain.tld.conf file to include:

location / {
    try_files $uri $uri.html $uri/ @extensionless-php;
    index index.html index.htm index.php;
}

location ~ \.php$ {
    try_files $uri =404;
}

location @extensionless-php {
    rewrite ^(.*)$ $1.php last;
}

Then restart nginx and give it a go. Hopefully this will help you! More information can be found (where I found it) here @ tweaktalk.net
