I hope someone can give me an idea on how to get this setup. I'm no WP
expert (never having setup it up prior to a few weeks ago), but this issue
I'd like to find a way to make work.

As I said, we have WP running on an NGINX server which is replacing an old
Joomla server.  The issue has to do with the fact there were several static
PHP pages built over the years on the Joomla server that we don't want to
move manually to the WP server.

The problem is that our Marketing used a lot of these standalone .php files
in ads and such and want those urls to work by redirecting either to the
home page or to specific pages inside WP.  (The latter is not a must have.)

The problem is that I can't figure out a way to have NGINX test for a
particular .php file and if it's not there, redirect to (or display) a 404
page inside wordpress.  In every case, when NGINX tries to find that .php
file it throws up the NGINX 404 page.

I can build a custom 404 page, but Marketing wants to use the page inside
WP.  There are several configs floating around that appear to solve the
problem, but none of them work for me.  I've been told this is possible,
but I've not found the answer if its out there.  Someone got any ideas?

I've attached my config file if that will help.
