A note for those who used the Theme Park nginx mod

Modify your nginx config and remove the lines that introduced the external css, anything after rewrite ^/qbittorrent/(.*) /$1 break; (non inclusive) is something that can be removed. Do not leave -modded, or any other files that are not necessary for nginx to function in the /etc/nginx/apps/ directory. Reload nginx after making changes by doing sudo service nginx configtest, if it returns OK, then proceed and do sudo service nginx reload.
