This is likely the source of my problem. I had trouble finding the proper way to configure the drawer. The documentation says that "Drawers need to be configured with the variable org-drawers," then gives the example of "You can define drawers on a per-file basis with a line like #+DRAWERS: HIDDEN PROPERTIES STATE." So, without further indication of what these settings do, or how to actually use the variable org-drawers, I just used the sample code in my file with the name of my drawer added on to the end: #+DRAWERS: HIDDEN PROPERTIES STATE PRIVATE The drawer, by the way, has encrypted text in it. I have also confirmed that html export works fine in general. Perhaps there is an argument to be made for clarifying the drawers documentation (or perhaps I'm just too clueless!). Cheers.

Yes, this works now. I discovered that I had a *second* drawers setting at the end of the file, under Local Variables. This second entry, which I copied from the list archive, said this: -# Local Variables: -# org-drawers: '("PROPERTIES" "CLOCK" "MYDRAW") -# End: I did not change the final MYDRAW, but I suspect that it should have said PRIVATE, the name of my drawer. I suspect, though I am not certain, that the duplication of this line contributed to or caused my problem. After I removed the above three lines, html export worked. > Let me repeat: Do you have an #+OPTIONS line? what does it say? No options line. > Please verify the value of org-drawers in the buffer where > you use this. I'm not sure what you are asking for. The only drawer-related items I have in the file (other than those native to org) are the drawer itself and the line at the top of the file beneath the startup line: #+STARTUP:overview logdone #+DRAWERS: HIDDEN PROPERTIES STATE PRIVATE That's it. No org-drawers value other than this. And this is part of my problem. I can find no documentation (either in the manual or on this list) as to what I'm supposed to do with org-drawers. The documentation says this must be configured, but does not show how. For a non-programmer, this presents a challenge. (Or, it may be in the documentation somewhere, but I could not find it.) > Don't try to minimize the information you give us, maximize it. I hope this gives you enough. It's working now, though I still have not configured anything special and do not know how to use org-drawers. Inferring from the line that I removed, the following is perhaps the value of org-drawers that I should use: # org-drawers: '("HIDDEN" "PROPERTIES" "STATE" "PRIVATE") Is the above the same as: #+DRAWERS: HIDDEN PROPERTIES STATE PRIVATE I assume there is a difference that is useful in some way, but I do not know enough about programming to figure this out.

This *would* be equivalent to #+DRAWERS: PROPERTIES CLOCK MYDRAW if you'd left off the quote: # Local Variables: org-drawers: ("PROPERTIES" "CLOCK" "MYDRAW") # End: This is how the syntax of file variables works, values are read with `read', not evaluated, so quoting is not needed.

What I meant was to do C-h v org-drawers RET in the buffer to find out what the value truly is, to see what - if anything - the in-buffer settings achieved. > The only drawer-related items I > have in the file (other than those native to org) are the drawer > itself > and the line at the top of the file beneath the startup line: > > #+STARTUP:overview logdone > #+DRAWERS: HIDDEN PROPERTIES STATE PRIVATE > > That's it.

You did the right thing, #+DRAWERS is in the manual as an example. If you want to configure an Emacs variables directly, for example to set consistend defaults for all Org files, it is often easier to got through customize M-x customize-variable RET org-drawers RET because that does enforce the correct format of the value. > The documentation > says this must be configured, but does not show how.

Except that the syntax is easier with #+DRAWERS and also not subject to (in this case unnecessary) security checks.
