👋 Hello
I use Pluto notebooks to teach.
In the static html versions I make available for the students, I would like to hide certain cells (for example, the one with a `@htl` block with my CSS tricks).
I am trying this:
```css
pluto-cell#2d509cd9-2838-48c9-951e-01853b0d2dab {
display: none;
}
```
But it doesn’t work…
Anyone can help me?
Thank you!

Can you post an example of a cell you would like to hide?

Sure!
For example, I like to import the packages in the beginning:
In the static HTML, hiding the code, it becomes:
But you see that big space in the beginning?
It results from 5 cells with several tweaks that I want to hide in a presentation, without generating a big blank zone.

I think you are facing this issue with the ID selector:

Try to use the attribute selector as suggested in the link

You might also be interested in the extended ToC here
[https://disberd.github.io/PlutoExtras.jl/stable/toc/#Extended-ToC](https://disberd.github.io/PlutoExtras.jl/stable/toc/#Extended-ToC)
Which has some hiding cells functionality built in (disclaimer: that is my package)

It might be that you need to increase specificity of the css rule.
You can try setting `display: none !important;` if that is the issue

I’ve tried this. It did not work. For some reason the selector is not working

Can you share the notebook?

I typically just move those cells to the end of the notebook in a situation like this…however, try this:
Suppose the id you want to target is `74c6aa7f-0df8-4530-8d9a-38fc4096fd01`. You should be able to select it like this:
```julia
html"""
"""
```
I don’t know why, but it only works for me if I leave that space between the first number in the id and the rest of the id.

@rgouveiamendes You had a missing `0` in the first block for the cell ids (the one highlighted in the image below).
Adding the 0 to have a correct UUID and using the solution with the `id` attribute name works on my side (for some reason the `#\30 ID` synthax did not work for me)

🤦♂️ Thanks! It’s working here too. I might have lost that zero when I switched from one syntax to the other.
