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.
