I’m just testing pinegrow out, so definitely not an expert, but I’m fairly sure this is a bug. When working on a Wordpress theme, if there’s any other page named “index.html” inside a subfolder somewhere, then that file is used instead of the actual master when I select “Wordpress -\> apply master page”. If I remove or rename that index file then things work as expected. Pinegrow 5.95 macOS 10.15.4 ---

I would like to also add that whenever you play with the option called “This is a master page with its own header” ![image](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex036/uploads/pinegrow/original/2X/b/bba40513f8809a1307f51ce086eec47bbaae958f.png) It doesn’t not remove to excess wp-template-master
