use a filter (http://orgmode.org/worg/exporters/filter-markup.html) and set that text to be ""?
This will probably clobber all special blocks. If you have more than one, you need to check if it is an abstract block somehow, and return the text unaltered if it isnt. This is untested ;) (defun ox-mrkup-filter-abstract (text back-end info) "") you will need a derived backend, maybe something like: (org-export-define-derived-backend 'my-html 'html :filters-alist '((:filter-special-block . ox-mrkup-filter-abstract))) Then run (org-export-to-file 'my-html "html-marked.html") Lawrence Bottorff writes: > How would I suppress the > > #+begin_abstract > ... > #+end_abstract > > block content, specifically for the HTML export? :exports none doesn't seem > to work.
