Why is my org mode publish derived backend not reconized in the code snipped below? 

 (if (org-export-derived-backend-p backend 'jekyllHtmlPost)

This is my complete init.el

My Elisp is hard :(

Is the answer on "How to do backend-dependent actions in org-mode export" not a suitable aproach in my case?

configure_jekyll_front_matter gets 'html as argument BACKEND and not 'jekyllHtmlPost because you use the export functions of the html backend in the :menu-entry of the derived backend.

You must replace the export functions org-html-export-as-html, ... in your derived backend with your own versions org-jekyllHtmlPost-export-as-html, ... .

You find all the needed export functions in the :menu-entry definition of org-export-define-derived-backend.

Copy-paste these export functions from ox-html.el and change for those new export functions the following details:

  • the name, e.g. from org-html-export-as-html to org-jekyllHtmlPost-export-as-html
  • the backend argument of the general export functions (like org-export-to-file) from 'html to 'jekyllHtmlPost

I demonstrate that here on org-html-export-as-html as an example. The copy-pasted and modified code for org-html-export-as-html follows. Thereby, I cut the super-long doc string of org-html-export-as-html short.

(defun org-jekyllHtmlPost-export-as-html
  (&optional async subtreep visible-only body-only ext-plist)
  "Just like `org-html-export-as-html' but use 'jekyllHtmlPost as backend."
  (interactive)
  (org-export-to-buffer 'jekyllHtmlPost "*Org HTML Export*"
    async subtreep visible-only body-only ext-plist
    (lambda () (set-auto-mode t))))

  • Thank you Tobias, it worked like charm :)) – wagnermarques Jul 20 at 19:12
  • @Tobias: I believe you forgot to rename the function, so I edited the answer: please check. – NickD Jul 21 at 23:55
  • @NickD Thanks, no idea how that could slip through. – Tobias Jul 22 at 7:06
  • Hi NickD, I could not figure out why to change 'html to 'jekyllHtmlPost simbol is returning -> Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument sequencep t) – wagnermarques Jul 22 at 21:27

This is a try, its not the final solution yet... As soon as I can I will try it again...

The code below writes jekyll html post with front matter, but are still use html front end.
