**Your software**  
My Mautic version is: 4.4.2  
My PHP version is: 8.0.23  
My Database type and version is: MariaDB 10.4.26

I just wanted to share my configuration with anyone looking to run Mautic 4 on Plesk using NGINX for maximum performance. I’m noticing quite the improvement in page load times. Just add this to the Additional NGINX Directives in your Apache & NGINX settings, uncheck “Proxy Mode” and click Apply. I also have PHP set to **FPM Application Served by NGINX** in the Host Settings.
