Dear all,
By using the below setting I am getting a very nice umbrella histogram and
iact also shows a very good integrated Autocorrelation time. However, the
PMF profile is unexpected. Below I have also provided a gmx wham command I
am using, part of the pullx.xvg of one of the windows and also
corresponding part in log file.
Would you please help me find out what the problem might be?

What is the problem?

One more question: does it make sense to manually shift the plateau of the
PMF plot to zero (when we plot it), instead of using using the -zprof0 flag?

There is no difference. The -zprof0 just adds a constant so the PMF is zero at the specified point on the reaction coordinate.
