I have a site driven by Wordpress and a few custom directories that I've got at the top level. Some of these top-level directories work and the content inside of them are being read as expected.
However, I've just created a new folder directory with an index.html inside and when I try to visit it, Wordpress is overriding it and displaying a 404 error (since that directory structure doesn't exist in the Wordpress database).
I've disabled the W3 cache and I've checked the .htaccess file in the event that I put in a redirect in the past, but nothing that would indicate a redirect back to Wordpress.
