Hi,
To manage my personal website I would like to use the publish function
of org-mode. For the contents of pages, there is no problem, and the
auto-sitemap feature is promising. however, I would like to have some
common contents to all the individual pages, and they would best fit in
the preamble part. Essentially, I would have a preamble.org file
containing this:
--------
#+IMPORT: sitemap.org
* A few links
- link 1
- link 2
* Contact info
- address
- email
--------
and the contents of the preamble would be an html version of that (of
course without all the <head> section and so on). Optimally, of course,
preamble.org should not be linked from the site map.
How do I do that? Maybe a dedicated .org file for the navigation bar is
not the right way to do, is there a better one?
Thanks,
/vincent

Since you only need to export your preamble in HTML once, I'd rather use
`org-export-html-preamble' and set it to the HTML string you want.
There may be other ways using #+INCLUDE but the solution above is the
one I use.
HTH,

Thanks for the tip. In terms of time spent to build a web page, that
would have been the wise thing to do. However, I wanted something more
modular, say being able to add a few pages without having to tweak the
variable each time, and so on.
So in the mean time I cobbled something together, which works for me and
feels a bit more flexible if I want to modify the navigation bar in the
page:
(defun my-org-publish-org-to-html (plist filename pubdir)
(org-pop-to-buffer-same-window
(find-file "~/Boulot/org/web/preamble.org"))
(let* ((preamble (org-export-as-html 3 nil nil 'string t))
(plist (plist-put plist :html-preamble preamble)))
(org-publish-org-to-html plist filename pubdir)))
(Everything is hard-coded, it should use the :base-directory and test
whether :html-preamble is equal to 'file or something, and it does not
feel optimal at all, if only because it exports the preamble once for
every file - that's more like a proof-of-concept ...)
The file .../preamble.org contains a few links and contact info, and the
line to #+INCLUDE: the sitemap. Works reasonably well :-) and it could
be something that others would find useful.
Thanks again,
Cheers,
