Pi-hole behind Nginx Proxy Manager

Help Community Help
1

Actual Behaviour:

I use Nginx Proxy Manager which handle my domains and SSL certificates. I see no option to disable self-signed certificate and allow to be managed by Nginx Proxy Manager. Putting tls.pem in /etc/pihole isn't an option, because Nginx Proxy Manager automatically renew certificate. Self-signed cert is nice option for people not having FQDN, but for a lot of self-hosting, is this the problem.
Any chance for such options or any solution for this?

Debug Token:

Same problem. I use my pihole for managing all DNS within my local network.

I have made an attempt at doing this, but it doesn't work.

Attempt 1: Obvious

Set up pihole as normal. Go to nginx proxy manager and just type in IP address of pihole followed by "/admin" and set the port and scheme correctly. Assign a SSL certificate. Fails to load page

Attempt 2:

Do the same as attempt 1, except add the following under advanced tab in proxy manager.
location /admin/ {
proxy_pass http://<ip_address>:80/admin/;
}

This loads the homepage (/admin/login.php), but I can't do anything else afterwards.

The solution is probably very simple, but I'm not an expert in this. Please help me out.

The obvious way is to somehow extend proxy_pass to all subdomains under that IP, but I'm at a loss as to how I set up nginx proxy manager for that

Found an answer at last:

Tested and works. Make sure you don't have admin in the redirect, you take care of that in the advanced tab
