[BUG] feature request: make org-num-mode not count headings that are COMMENTs or have an :ignore: tag [9.6.6 (release_9.6.6 @ /usr/share/emacs/30.0.50/lisp/org/)]

[BUG] feature request: make org-num-mode not count headings that are COMMENTs or have an :ignore: tag [9.6.6 (release_9.6.6 @ /usr/share/emacs/30.0.50/lisp/org/)]

[Ilja Kocken]

Hi!

If I have a large org-file with many headings, sometimes it's useful to
refer to the heading number that people have commented on in the
exported PDF (e.g. for an academic paper). However, when I turn on
org-num-mode, this shows a continuous numbering for all the headlines in
the file. I have many headings that are not included in my LaTeX export
for one reason or another, so the heading numbers don't match.

Ideally org-num-mode would not add a number to headings with:
* COMMENT heading
* heading :nolatex:

and perhaps based on whether the ox-extras ignore-headlines is activated or not:
* heading :ignore:

I think in the above I may have forgotten that at the bottom of [[
https://github.com/japhir/ArchConfigs/blob/master/myinit.org#reset-gc-cons-threshold][my
config]] I had not uncommented the line that sets the gconf-threshold :O

See `org-num-skip-commented', `org-num-skip-tags', and generally "Org
Num" staff in M-x customize-group <RET> org-appearance <RET>

Ah thanks for the info, I messed up by only looking at C-h f org-num-mode,
and not looking at customize-group. Thank you :)
