When making beamer slides with knitr using the Frankfurt theme the PDF output includes slides with the section and subsection names.

author: Chewy
output:
  beamer_presentation:
  slide_level: 3
theme: "Frankfurt"

```{r setup, include=FALSE}
knitr::opts_chunk$set(echo = FALSE)
```

How do I get rid of the slides (2,3,6 and 7) with the section and subsection titles whilst maintaining the document structure displayed at the top of the slides?

Those frames are produced by the commands \AtBeginSubsection{} and \AtBeginSection{}, which you can redefine in your YAML front matter to do nothing instead:

---
header-includes: 
- \AtBeginSubsection{}
- \AtBeginSection{}

  • Thanks @soca. In my non-simplified application I also have a `beamer_presentation: includes: in_header: header.txt` for my Beamer preamble. Your answer seems to make this call to `header.txt` no longer function. Any ideas how I can include both? – guyabel Jul 04 '16 at 10:57

    you could just add those two lines, without the leading `-`, in your header.txt – scoa Jul 04 '16 at 11:52
  • Awesome. Worked a treat! – guyabel Jul 05 '16 at 04:38
