Hi all,
TLDR: Using ox-extras :IGNORE: tags break #+INCLUDE :minlevel.
Ideally ox-extras functionality could make it into ox.
I'm using Org Mode to structure my thesis, and one of the Org
features that I rely on the most are the #+INCLUDE derivatives.
My setup is such that I have a main thesis.org file with the
(simplified) following contents:
--
#+latexclass: thesis
#+setupfile: thesis.setup
#+exclude_tags: manuscript noexport
* Chapter 1
#+INCLUDE: chap1/chapter1.org :lines "3-"
etc..
--
And I have chapter files where, e.g., the Methods section is
formatted differently whether it is included in the main body of
the thesis or in a manuscript:
--
#+latexclass: manuscript
#+setupfile: manuscript.setup
#+exclude_tags: thesis noexport
etc..
# For thesis, include methods directly
* Methods :thesis:
#+INCLUDE: methods.org :lines "3-"
# For paper, wrap methods into a specific control sequence and
adjust headline levels.
* Methods :ignore:manuscript:
#+LATEX: \matmethods{
#+INCLUDE: methods.org :lines "3-" :minlevel 2
#+LATEX: }
* Insert Methods :ignore:manuscript:
#+LATEX: \showmatmethods{}

I don't know if this is the cleanest setup, but it works well for
me because I get to reuse my files.
The one issue I have with this setup, is that besides relying on
IGNORE tags, I also rely on :minlevel to adjust the headlines.
However, because ox-extra promotes all subtrees, it breaks
minlevel's functionality.
Would anyone have an idea on how to fix this? Is there any
intention of bringing ox-extra functionality into main Org?
Something like #+ignore_tags would be a powerful addition for fine
grained export control, in my opinion.
Thank you
