   7 I just have the following in my nginx config, which isn't as friendly, I think, as a 404 plugin, but it does the job:
   8
   9         location / {
  10             index  index.html index.htm;
  11             if (!-d $request_filename) {
  12                rewrite ^/(.*)/$ /ikiwiki.cgi?page=$1&do=create last;
  13                rewrite ^(.*)/$ /$1.html last;
  14                rewrite ^(.*)/$ /$1.htm last;
  15             }
  16             if (!-e $request_filename) {
  17                rewrite ^/(.*)$ /ikiwiki.cgi?page=$1&do=create last;
  18                rewrite ^(.*)$ $1.html last;
  19                rewrite ^(.*)$ $1.htm last;
  20             }
  21         }
