Thanks for the reply, not that I really needed help, just pointing out a weird behavior.

What should of happened I was expecting that the content would be blank when going to the /index.html, but it was still serving the old layout content.

Emptying a layout file wasn’t getting regnerated.

I though i had put enough details oh well :slight_smile:
