Hi David, Sorry my website on org-mode is stale and I don't currently have time to update it. I stopped updating it in 2015 after changing jobs and moving to the windows platform (at work). My main issue is lack of free time to spend on this project. The downloadable org file is actually the result of publishing the org source from my very out-of-date Linux workstation.

Re: [O] cannot export to beamer.
I suspect that the recent changes in how Emacs runs initialisation may
well expose a few edge cases for the customise interface. The custimise
interface is fairly basic and makes a few assumptions which may not hold
once you start altering the order of initialisation and package
loading. While it all works fine 80% of the time, it may fail for more
complex situations and the reality is, Org is large and complex.
Strictly speaking, I don't think it is a bug. The problem is getting the
right balance of what to load and what to leave for the user to decide
to load. If you never use beamer, then having all the beamer stuff
loaded by default is only going to slow down start up (though I do think
people are way too obsessed with startup time these days! I start emacs
about once per week and only that often because I shutdown my laptop on
the weekend when I leave work!). If beamer is not loaded when you
customise org-latex-classes, then it won't be in the variable and if it
isn't in the variable, it cannot be saved into the custom block. If you
then later decide to load it and it is loaded before your customisation
is loaded, then the value it adds to org-latex-classes is lost. If on
the other hand we 'hard code' it into the variable so it doesn't depend
on whether ox-beamer is loaded, then a definition will exist which won't
work when the user tries to use it as ox-beamer is not
loaded. Previously, I think custom blocks were loaded at the start of
your init, so before org was loaded, so this was less of an issue. No
with the early init stuff, things are not quite the same (a lot of guess
work here!).

[O] [PATCH] Suggestion to self-link headlines exported to HTML
Hi,
Recently I wrote a blog post on making headlines clickable when Org mode
is exported to HTML:
https://writepermission.com/org-blogging-clickable-headlines.html
With this mail, I'd like to suggest a change to bring this feature to
the Org mode core.
It's my first contribution to Org mode, but I've already completed the
paperwork to contribute to Emacs core in the past.
Of course any comment is welcome.

No it does not and this turns out a problem, also I thought the
ox-beamer code contains a add-to-list which should do add beamer, but it
seems not to do it.

Re: [O] cannot export to beamer.
Just a shot in the dark here .
You mentioned you used custom to modify the org-latex-classes
variable. Does the code in the custom 'block' of your init file have
beamer as one of the classes? My suspicion is that when you added your
exam class, for some reason, beamer had not been loaded and was not yet
in the variable definition. When you edited it to add your exam class it
has saved a version without beamer as a class.
When you start emacs, with the new init and run order, the code
> (unless (assoc "beamer" org-latex-classes)

> '("beamer"
>"\\documentclass[presentation]{beamer}"
>("\\section{%s}" . "\\section*{%s}")
>("\\subsection{%s}" . "\\subsection*{%s}")
>("\\subsubsection{%s}" . "\\subsubsection*{%s}"
is executed and beamer is added, but then your custom settings are
evaluated and the variable is reset with the version you added the exam
class to, which has no beamer entry, is used to reset the variable and
the beamer setting is lost.
My guess is that at the time you customized the variable, beamer was not
loaded and so the beamer class was not added. Now, when you start emacs,
beamer is being loaded before your custom block is evaluated and your
customisation is overriding the value added by beamer when it is loaded.
There are numerous reasons why this might occur. It may simply be
something subtle arising from the new load order (for example,
previously, such a value may have been fine as your custom settings
would be loaded before the ox-beamer library, but now the library is
being loaded first and then custom settings?). This could be likely if
you are using a custom block saved with an earlier version of emacs.
I would start by deleting the org-latex-classes customization and try
adding it again to see if that fixes the problem. This is one reason I
rarely use customise - I prefer to have the code in my own init file so
that I can see exactly when everything is run.
