Hi everyone, I just wanted to make sure my original questions / problems were clearly stated since no one responded to my original email.
1. I think there is a bug when exporting the visible part of the outline tree to a latex file (C-c C-e v l). Html export of the visible part works fine, but the behavior of the latex export is not the same (please see my original message below). 2. Is there a way to publish a project (C-c C-e X <project>) and have it respect the value of org-show-hierarchy-above?
