If you have needs beyond what Caddy offers, you setup a reverse proxy to Nginx. Let’s look at an example where you would use Nginx for caching. I also added a separate block, in case you want to pass reverse proxy it back to Caddy again.

In the example below I have a WordPress configuration where you could easily switch between passing the request to Nginx and passing it straight to PHP. You would simply change with_nginx to without_nginx. It also shows how you could support for purging URLs for the nginx cache, without exposing the purge URLs beyond access for localhost.
