The wiki instance used query params for the pages, but the export uses the id as file name. So a mapping from do GET param to file name is needed like this:

/doku.php?id=self-organized-sessions -> /self-organized-sessions.html
doku.php?id=wiki:dokuwiki -> /wiki/dokuwiki.html

But actually all relevant pages are on the root level. Only intern (not exported), playground (removed as irrelevant), wiki syntax (removed as irrelevant) and ticket-exchanged (removed due to personal data) were in their own namespace.

Do something like this:

    location / {
        ssi on;
        root   /usr/share/nginx/html;
        index  start.html;
    }

    # redirect doku.php?id=$pagename to /$pagename.html
    location /doku.php {
        return 301 $scheme://$host:$server_port/$arg_id.html;
    }

Do something like this: ``` location / { ssi on; root /usr/share/nginx/html; index start.html; } # redirect doku.php?id=$pagename to /$pagename.html location /doku.php { return 301 $scheme://$host:$server_port/$arg_id.html; } ```
