Question Does plesk take a nginx.conf file into account if added in the root folder of website?

[inado1]

I have a wordpress installation and I run through NGINX without apache. I have installed a cache plugin on my wordpress installation, W3C total cache. This plugin added a nginx.conf file to the root folder of my wordpress installation. This file includes nginx directives for the cache. Does Plesk take this nginx.conf file into account as it would be if it was a .htaccess file?
If not, i know I have to copy paste those directives in the field under apache & nginx settings in plesk
Thank you in advance.
