Yes, you are right. It is my fault. I am sorry for that. And thank you for your instruction of minimal config practice. I should and will follow it.

Re: [O] How to upgrade to make beamer export work
OMG, it is my fault. I used `C-c C-e l p` My screen is too small. I just saw the the `p` key. And I thought maybe beamer and latex share the same key now in the new orgmode exporter.

Re: [O] How to upgrade to make beamer export work
I was using spacemacs, and I updated orgmode (9.1.14) yesterday.
I have no beamer-related config except:
```
(require 'ox-beamer)
(setq org-latex-pdf-process '("latexmk -xelatex -outdir=%o %f"))
(add-to-list 'org-export-backends 'beamer)
```
I checked the `tex` output of the example, there is just `section`, no `frame`.

Yes, that is exactly what I did.

For the OP: check the value of the H option, as in #+options: H:1 where 1 would indicate top level headings define frames.

Do you have a complete minimal setup which doesn't work with the new version (.org-file, .emacs, both only having enough content to show the issue)?

How did you export? You should choose the beamer options, as in C-c C-e l P to create PDF using beamer. Note upper case P. If you want to open the file as well, use O instead of P (again upper case). Lower case equivalents are for normal LaTeX article class (by default). -- Eric S Fraga via Emacs 27.0.50, Org release_9.1.11-620-ga548e4
[O] How to upgrade to make beamer export work
I used orgmode to prepare my lecture materials. Now I upgrade org to the latest version, and read the [[new exporter][https://orgmode.org/worg/exporters/ox-overview.html]]. It seems the configure is much easier. But I cannot get my lectures right after all my efforts. So I start all over. I removed all my beamer configure. With the [[beamer example][https://orgmode.org/manual/A-Beamer-example.html]], I get a pdf (see attachment) like a latex article, no beamer frame. Is this normal? test.pdf Description: Adobe PDF document
