Re: [O] Which `odt-content' variable should I use? Why are there two?

So you are seeing the old and new variables in the custom buffer. (IMO this is a bug.) NEW variables do NOT have an extra "export" in their names == If you are using org > 8.0, the variables that you are interested in should come from ox-odt.el. M-x find-library ox-odt M-< C-s defcustom (defcustom org-odt-prettify-xml nil ^^^ (defcustom org-odt-schema-dir ^^^ Note that NEW variables don't have "export" in their names. Except for change in the prefix, the functionality is for most part the same. Migrate: Use search and replace So, a simple renaming in your .emacs should suffice for migrating your old settings to the new settings. C-x C-f .emacs M-% org-export-odt- org-odt- C-x C-s

Your Emacs comes with an old Org version, while you are using another one, either as a package or from a directory. You don't need to worry about this is M-x org-version RET shows that you are using Org > 8. > I imagine I could do some print variable testing to discover on my own, but > also wanted to see if comments would be enlightening to my understanding in > general. What might be confusing is that options generally use the same prefix than the package they belong to: (require 'my-package-*) will load new options with a prefix like my-package-*. In Org, the export packages start as ox-* since 8.0, but the options they define start with org-export-* and not ox-*. Using org-export-* as the prefix for all Org export packages felt too much.

[O] Which `odt-content' variable should I use? Why are there two?
I was browsing the customize group org-export-odt. I found two variables that seem to do the same thing. In org-odt.el, we have org-export-odt-content-template-file while in ox-odt.el, we have org-odt-content-template-file Do I need to worry about this. Will org-export check both locations, or will one take precedence somehow? (As in, if one is `nil', will it more or less have no effect on the other?) I imagine I could do some print variable testing to discover on my own, but also wanted to see if comments would be enlightening to my understanding in general. - Brady (learning Emacs because I found Org-mode; "programmer")
