Not working for me. Hoping a permanent fix is incoming?

jc21/nginx-proxy-manager:github-pr-3478 (#3478) should fix this. Hopefully this'll be introduced in the production image soon!

since the latest update I have the same issue with custom locations. It brings the site offline.

I am running Nginx Proxy Manager 2.11.1 in a Debian 12 LXC Container in Proxmox 8.1.4 via the Proxmox Helper Scripts. This is what fixed the issue for me.

1. Delete the very first line {% include "_hsts_map.conf" %} from the /app/templates/_locations.conf file.
2. Reboot the LXC Container (maybe doing systemctl restartnpm.service in the console of the container could be enough as well)
3. Delete the Custom location & re-add it
4. Host is now online, and the custom location works regardless of the state of the HSTS toggles.

I was initially a little stupid and deleted the line from /data/logs/nginx-proxy-manager-2.11.1/backend/templates/_locations.conf file and was frustrated that it still wasn't working. Don't be me - wait for your FTP Program's Search function to finish 🙃

If you are running NPM in a Docker Container or on some other kind of system, you will just need to find the correct file (I am not sure if the file/folder structure is different when you deploy in Docker or TrueNAS or what have you).
