How to disable commented date in org mode html export

Question

When you export an org file to html, a date will appear in the html source though commented.

Answer 1

You need to set the appropriate export option, which is timestamp. It's described at Export Settings, but I always find that section ridiculously confusing, so here are some examples:

Either globally using a variable:

(setq org-export-with-timestamps nil)

or globally using a keyword:

#+options: timestamp:nil
* headline
one two three

or on an individual headline:

* headline
#+options: timestamp:nil
one two three

Answer 2

To disable that globally, you can use (set org-export-time-stamp-file nil).
