AFAIK, org-latex-classes works together with :section-numbers (org-export-with-section-numbers or #+OPTIONS: num: t|nil|N) to allow the first N [fn:1] levels of headlines to be numbered while lower levels are unnumbered. It does not allow selectively turning on/off numbers for a given level: they are either all on or all off. And it cannot possibly affect HTML export. To the best of my knowledge, the answer to the OP's question is that it cannot be done from org: you have to tweak the export output. Footnotes: [fn:1] If set to t, then N is set from the value of org-export-headline-levels (3 by default). -- Nick
