I'm trying to set up an org project to publish my personal website. I
like to use friendly urls, like the one below.

http://www.example.tld/jeff/teaching/2010/fall/econ101/index.html

My publishing set up is a bit of a mess, with a project handling the
root, the "jeff" subdirectory, and one handling the "teaching"
sub-sub-directory. I have ":recursive t" set on the teaching
directory, since I don't want to define a new project for every course
I teach. So far, publishing works as intended, except that the
".../econ101/img/" subdirectory contents aren't copied to the
publishing directory. Switching on ":base-extension "any"" doesn't fix
this (in fact, it prevents the project from being published at all).
The relevant portion of my project:

("teaching"
         :base-directory "~/org/ftr/jeff/teaching/"
         :publishing-directory "~/Sites/FTR/jeff/teaching"
         :publishing-function (org-publish-org-to-html
org-publish-org-to-org org-publish-org-to-pdf org-publish-attachment)
         :recursive t
         :style-include-default nil
         ;; :base-extension "any"
         )

In the ".../econ101/syllabus.org" file, an inline image calls
[[./img/example.jpg]]. The "img" directory exists in my source
directory. The directory is copied to my publishing directory, but not
the files within the directory. I noticed also that emacs tried to
open an "example.jpg" buffer, which I thought was weird.

Thanks for taking the time to read and respond.

Best regards,
Jeff

I've managed to push the extra source files out with the org-static
configuration found at worg.[1]

But now, for some reason, I've lost all my options (no TOC, no section
numbers, custom stylesheet, etc). Anyone care to look at my config
off-list and offer advice?

I'm beginning to think it's something silly like an unescaped
quotation mark, but I've looked at every simple solution I can think
of.

The relevant portion of my configuration is below.

(setq org-publish-project-alist nil)
(setq org-publish-project-alist
      '(("ftr-static"
         :base-directory "~/org/ftr"
         :base-extension "css\\|js\\|png\\|jpg\\|gif\\|pdf\\|mp3\\|ogg\\|swf"
         :publishing-directory "~/Sites/FTR/"
         :recursive t
         :publishing-function (org-publish-attachment)
         :table-of-contents nil
         :todo-keywords nil
         :section-numbers nil
         :recursive t
         )
        ("ftr-jeff"
         :base-directory "~/org/ftr/jeff"
         :base-extension "org"
         :publishing-directory "~/Sites/FTR/jeff"
         :recursive t
         :publishing-function (org-publish-org-to-html org-publish-org-to-org)
         :htmlized-source
         :table-of-contents nil
         :todo-keywords nil
         :section-numbers nil
         :recursive t
         )
        ("ftr"
         :components ( "ftr-static"
                       "ftr-jeff"
                      )
         )))

The table of contents and section number options are being ignored
(possibly others). Any ideas?

Isn't that what *should* happen if the :table-of-contents and :section-numbers
options are set to nil?

Sorry for the misunderstanding. What I meant to say was the options
are being ignored, such that table of contents and section numbers are
being used, as if these variables were set to non-nil.

So, you are changing the project settings but you don't see the changes
in the html files? Have you investigated caching effects? Not only at
the web browser but also at the org-mode publishing level? org-publish
keeps timestamps on org files and does not update the html files if they
have not been changed.

Thanks for your help, Nick. I have been deleting ~/.org-timestamps/
when republishing, and forcing a refresh of the web browser.

If I open the HTML files in an editor, I can see the table of contents
in the file, and there is no customer stylesheet link, and there is
the default style wrapped in CDATA.

Jeff

OK - let me try to summarize and see if I have understood correctly:

o in your org-publish-project-alist you set :table-of-contents to nil
o you clear the timestamps directory
o you run org-publish and you examine the resulting html file and it
  contains a TOC.

Correct so far?

I cannot reproduce this in my setup:

Org-mode version 7.01trans (release_7.01h.654.g3afc)

Unless somebody can see what's wrong, if you don't mind doing some elisp
debugging, I 'd suggest adding a (debug) call in org-publish-file and
checking the value of the plist before the publishing function is
called (look for the big, marked section below for more details):

(defun org-publish-file (filename &optional project no-cache)
  "Publish file FILENAME from PROJECT.
If NO-CACHE is not nil, do not initialize org-publish-cache and
write it to disk.  This is needed, since this function is used to
publish single files, when entire projects are published.
See `org-publish-projects'."
  (let* ((project
	  (or project
	      (or (org-publish-get-project-from-filename filename)
		  (error "File %s not part of any known project"
			 (abbreviate-file-name filename)))))
	 (project-plist (cdr project))
	 (ftname (expand-file-name filename))
	 (publishing-function
	  (or (plist-get project-plist :publishing-function)
	      'org-publish-org-to-html))
	 (base-dir
	  (file-name-as-directory
	   (expand-file-name
	    (or (plist-get project-plist :base-directory)
		(error "Project %s does not have :base-directory defined"
		       (car project))))))
	 (pub-dir
	  (file-name-as-directory
	   (file-truename
	    (or (plist-get project-plist :publishing-directory)
		(error "Project %s does not have :publishing-directory defined"
		       (car project))))))
	 tmp-pub-dir)

    (unless no-cache
      (org-publish-initialize-cache (car project)))

    (setq tmp-pub-dir
	  (file-name-directory
	   (concat pub-dir
		   (and (string-match (regexp-quote base-dir) ftname)
			(substring ftname (match-end 0))))))

I'll do my best. I don't know a lot about emacs, but I'm learning.
What was the function for? I guess I should be editing an org-mode
source file? Do I need to recompile after adding the debug call?

Thanks again!

I was stopping the debug process after pressing "R project-plist RET".
I've finished stepping through the project with "c" and the
project-plist contains the right project at every step, with the right
settings, ":table-of-contents nil" and ":section-numbers nil". The
file modification times are correct, but the content is wrong. There
are section numbers, a table of contents, and the file lacks my
defined linked style sheet.

Could you walk me through "edebug"? Simply replace "(debug)" above
with "(edebug)" didn't do the trick.

Thanks!
Jeff

I moved ":htmlized-source" to the bottom of the project definition and
it fixed the problem.

In the examples I've seen, ":htmlized-source" has an empty value. I
hypothesize the key was seeing the next key as a value, and so wasn't
picking up any subsequent keys.

I just loaded my publishing setup from a few days ago and edited every
line that had ":htmlized-source" to ":htmlized-source t" and my
problem is solved.

Thanks so much for the help! Even if it didn't help discover the
problem, I learned a good bit about debugging, and I edited my first
source file, so that's something to be proud of! :-)

I think you are right: the code uses plist-get to get property values
and the doc string for plist-get says:

,----
| plist-get is a built-in function in `C source code'.
| 
| (plist-get PLIST PROP)
| 
| Extract a value from a property list.
| PLIST is a property list, which is a list of the form
| (PROP1 VALUE1 PROP2 VALUE2...).  This function returns the value
| corresponding to the given PROP, or nil if PROP is not one of the
| properties on the list.  This function never signals an error.
`----

apparently with no provision for a missing value. Which means that
org needs some additional error checking to catch situations like
this. Maybe we need a wrapper around plist-get to check things.
I wonder: is it OK to use the fact that in org, all property names
start with a colon, to detect missing values? Probably not, since
a value can also start with a colon.

... and it wasn't too bad, right? But inspired guessing will beat
debugging drudgery any day.

Indeed.  Looking back on your example, your property list was indeed  
ill-formed.  It must have an even number of elements, so every key  
needs a value.  It is hard to protect against this problem.  Maybe I  
could build a better customize interface to this variable, so that its  
value could be safely built in this way.

Thanks to both you and Nick for the persistence to resolve this.
