+COPY your_config_file.conf /etc/nginx/custom/
+
+# Optionally, you might need to adjust the Nginx configuration to include your custom file.
+# This depends on how you want to integrate your configuration.
+# One common approach is to include it in the main nginx.conf.
+
+# Example: Include your custom config in the default server block configuration
+# RUN echo "include /etc/nginx/custom/your_config_file.conf;" >> /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf
+
+# Alternatively, you might want to create a separate server block configuration.
+# RUN cp /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf /etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf.orig
+# RUN echo "server {" >> /etc/nginx/conf.d/my_custom_server.conf
+# RUN cat /etc/nginx/custom/your_config_file.conf >> /etc/nginx/conf.d/my_custom_server.conf
+# RUN echo "}" >> /etc/nginx/conf.d/my_custom_server.conf
+
+# You might need to restart or reload Nginx for the changes to take effect.
+# However, since this is the base image's entrypoint, any changes here might be overwritten.
+# It's generally better to manage configuration through environment variables or volume mounts
+# if possible with nginx-proxy.
+
+# If you absolutely need to restart Nginx, you might consider a custom entrypoint script.
+# For example:
+# COPY entrypoint.sh /usr/local/bin/
+# RUN chmod +x /usr/local/bin/entrypoint.sh
+# ENTRYPOINT ["/usr/local/bin/entrypoint.sh"]
+#
+# And in your entrypoint.sh:
+# #!/bin/sh
+#
+# # Apply your custom configuration (if not already done above)
+# # ...
+#
+# # Start the original nginx-proxy entrypoint
+# /app/docker-entrypoint.sh "$@"
