Missing index.html File

I just used this plugin perfectly the other day and I have to first say thank you. It’s easy to use and did the job for me perfectly.

The problem I ran into is today I after generating the files it’s missing the main page index.html file now.

I double checked this on the original site I used the plugin on and generated new static files and downloaded that zip file. Missing the index file in there as well.

I am speaking of the home page index.html file. The first index.html file in the zip folder located under the wp-json folder.

The only thing I can think of is that the update you pushed affected this. Because I just used this plugin on saturday and it worked perfectly. Please advise.

It appears there is a bug that leaves a trailing “.” in the temporary directory name. If you disable “delete temporary files”, you will find index.html in <wpdir>/wp-content/plugins/simply-static/static-files/simply-static-1-timestamp-blogname. (with a period). You can just copy that file over.

Here is my fix. Probably more lines than required, but I get lost in all of these short-circuit operators. I will send them to the plugin author for a real fix.
