I was thinking of #+ignore_tags. as an analog of #+exclude_tags. While #+exclude_tags removes a complete subtree from export, #+ignore_tags would only ignore headlines and insert the contents. When used in combination, subtree would be excluded no matter what.
#+IGNORE_TAGS: ignore bar #+EXLUDE_TAGS: noexport foo The idea of ignore_tags, for me, would to allow grouping content within the Org file in a manner that differs from the grouping of content upon export - without having to resort to filter-hooks. Not that hooks are bad, but they are harder to construct without proper elisp skills and require knowledge about the Org API. Furthermore, tags are excellent because they're easy to manipulate and search for. On Thu, Apr 12, 2018 at 3:28 PM, Nicolas Goaziou <m...@nicolasgoaziou.fr> wrote: > Hello, > > "Daniel P.
