Hi,
I want selective export in org (for instance, exporting to beamer/latex, and
html etc). I seem to understand the "theory" but it seems not really to work
for me.
what _works_ is as follows: I set directly a corresponding variable, in
particular, for instance, set it "hard" to
(setq org-export-exclude-tags '("noexport" "private" "handout")
"noexport" is the original value, but I want to keep trees tagged as
"private" and as "handout" out of for instance the slides.
Now that seems to work.
Now: when I want to /customize/ that in the org-file itself, it seems that's
done by doing something like
#+EXCLUDE_TAGS: private
(In (older?) versions, I also found #+EXPORT_EXCLUDE_TAGS).
Anyhow: having such a specification in the org-file seems to have /no
effect/, even if I "refresh" the org-file, nor does it work when I visit the
file for the first time. It seems simply not to affect the said variable
"org-export-exclude-tags"

I use a pretty up-to-date org version pulled from git-hub (org-version
8.3.2, emacs-version 24.3.1)

I cannot reproduce your issue. With the following buffer
#+EXCLUDE_TAGS: private
* H1 :private:
* H2
I get
1 H2
════
when I export to, e.g., UTF-8.

Thanks,
For your small example (exporting to latex) I get
\begin{itemize}
\item H1 :private:
\item H2
\end{itemize}
(apart from the preamble etc). What is also weird: If I add the
``standard'' vanilla template (via C-c C-e # beamer), then
- 1) some option settings like H:2 vs H:3 /are/ working.
- 2) variable org-export-headline-levels does not change
By "working" I mean: if I change the #+OPTIONS: H:2 to H:3, refresh the
emacs-buffer wrt. org's settings, and export the output (concretetely I
did beamer/latex). Now changing the section-level head /does change/ the
beamer-latex output the way I'd expect (i.e., it influences the
sectioning level).
What is strange though: the emacs-variable org-export-headline-levels
does not change when doing that, expect that I would have expected that
refreshing the buffer would do exactly that: update that variable and
thereby influencing the sectioning-levels:
---------------------
org-export-headline-levels is a variable defined in `ox.el'.
Its value is 3
...
This option can also be set with the OPTIONS keyword,
e.g. "H:2".
---------------------
I did not to comprehensive experiments which #+OPTIONS work or work
strangely, I just noticed that H:3 etc ``work'' (but I don't know why),
whereas the #EXCLUDE_TAGS do ``not work'' when refreshing the
buffer. For instance in that simple example you provided.

Then something may be wrong with `org-export-headline-levels', or
`org-latex-classes' in your config.

ox-beamer uses this option item for something else,
`org-beamer-frame-level'. IOW `org-export-headline-levels' has no effect
during Beamer export.

Did you try with emacs -Q?
