If you happen to ever read this, I ended up with a setup similar to the hacky one I did before: - WP moved to subdirectory (WP home and siteurl changed in DB) - Static site served normally from (and generated to) webroot Just needed to add sitemaps and robots.txt to the config to be included. Workflow is super smooth. Login to example.com/wordpress/wp-admin/, view your changes at example.com/wordpress and when you're happy, publish the site through the plugin. Curious to see what kinds of issues I might be running into later on (this was just a quick test).
