 The `$forward_to_ui` parameter can now be used to conditionally forward the
 calls:
 
-```
-# When no endpoint is given, default to search.
-# Need to add a rewrite so that the rewrite rules below catch it correctly.
-rewrite ^/$ /search;
-
-location @php {
-    # fastcgi stuff..
+``` nginx
+location / {
     if ($forward_to_ui) {
-        rewrite ^(/[^/]*) https://yourserver.com/ui$1.html redirect;
-    }
+        rewrite ^(/[^/.]*) https://$http_host/ui$1.html redirect;
     }
 
-location ~ [^/]\.php(/|$) {
-    # fastcgi stuff..
-    if ($forward_to_ui) {
-        rewrite (.*).php https://yourserver.com/ui$1.html redirect;
-    }

 }
 ```
 
-!!! warning
-    Be aware that the rewrite commands are slightly different for URIs with and

 Reload nginx and the UI should be available.
