Prefered location of nginx.conf and how to secure it

elemental.tm

Basic Pleskian
Hi all,

I'm just getting to know Nginx, using it for Joomla and Wordpress based websites.
Where is the prefered location to host nginx.conf? Currently I have it in the webroot but I have read its better to have it up a level so its more secure. That said it would be nice if the CMS/Addons/Plugins could still write to it to update config dynamically etc.

I'd be glad to hear your opinions on this and confirmation of best practise.

Cheers.
