How to avoid generating the Table of Contents when exporting to markdown?

How to avoid generating the Table of Contents when exporting to markdown?

[Rodrigo Morales]

When answering questions in Emacs Stack Exchange, I usually write my answer
in Org Mode and then export it to Markdown so that I can copy it to the
answer textbox in Stack Exchange. For this reason, I don't need the
export to contain a Table of Contents because the Markdown content is
not big enough to require it.

For this reason, I don't want the Table of Contents to be included when
exporting.

You can try putting

#+OPTIONS: toc:nil

in the header of your org file. This is covered in the 'Table of
Contents' sub-section of the Exporting section of the org manual.

You can disable export of the TOC by setting the toc option to nil, with a
line like this at the top of the file:

#+options: toc:nil

See https://orgmode.org/manual/Table-of-Contents.html

Thanks for the help :)

After searching the information you mentioned in the Info manual of Org
Mode, I found information on the variable =org-export-with-toc= and have
included the following in my configuration.

#+begin_src elisp
(setq org-export-with-toc nil)
#+end_src
