I read ,---- | ‘SELECT_TAGS’ | The tags that select a tree for export (org-export-select-tags). The | default value is :export:. Within a subtree tagged with :export:, | you can still exclude entries with :noexport: (see below). When | headlines are selectively exported with :export: anywhere in a file, | text before the first headline is ignored. `---- But I have trees tagged for export, while text above first headline is being exported. Can anyone confirm? -- Brady
