NGINX RTMP install troubles

I’m having some difficulty getting NGINX to install/run with the rtmp module.
I’m running FreeBSD 11.2 on a small droplet(digital ocean), fresh install.

I continued to install nginx via ports. I then enabled rtmp via "make config" then "make install" to install.

I then edited rc.d to enable nginx, nginx_enable="YES"
lastly, I edited nginx.conf and then attempted to restart the nginx service.

Any help would be greatly appreciated! I'm a long time windows user trying to convert over. So I'm not sure if it's a simple syntax error or if I installed it incorrectly.

This is the error message I receive when I try to restart nginx

Code:
nginx: [emerg] unknown directive "rtmp" in /usr/local/etc/nginx/nginx.conf:122
nginx: configuration file /usr/local/etc/nginx/nginx.conf test failed

Below is the nginx.conf file in question.

Code:
user  www;
worker_processes  1;

# errors are logged somewhere, especially during unattended boot when stderr
# isn't normally logged anywhere. This path will be touched on every nginx
# start regardless of error log location configured here. See

You probably need to load the module. Add it to the top of your nginx.conf, for example:
Code:
load_module /usr/local/libexec/nginx/ngx_stream_module.so;
This is for another module, I don't use RTMP so I don't know the exact module's name. But the idea is the same, look for the correct module in /usr/local/libexec/nginx/.
