Issue how to edit global custom directives?

What is the correct procedure to edit the global custom directive files when running Plesk and Almalinux? Any change we make in the conf files is overwritten by Plesk

Any direct changes we make to the configuration files are overwritten by Plesk when it rebuilds the configs. We tried placing our modified directives (e.g. adding reuseport to listen) under:
/usr/local/psa/admin/conf/templates/custom/

This works temporarily, but every time Plesk itself is updated or upgraded, the update fails unless we delete the custom templates first. As a result, our changes are lost after every update.

Is there an official way to add or persist such global nginx directives so they survive config regeneration and Plesk upgrades without breaking the updater?

Hi,
instead of deleting the custom templates, leave them in place, if they are no longer valid, they will be moved to to a different folder like...

/usr/local/psa/admin/conf/templates/<random>_broken

So just check for that after an update, if present, then recreate your templates.
In my opinion, Plesk should only warn about custom templates when the default ones have changed,
Anyway, I hope that helps.
