Running Jupyter Lab Version 3.0.11
I'd like to hide or remove cells, and/or hide cell input, and/or hide cell output in Jupyter Notebook and/or Jupyter Lab when converted to HTML and/or PDF. And, I want to choose which cells/input/output to remove and which to keep.
I'm trying Jupyter Lab's celltags extension, but it isn't working.
Here's the notebook with a "remove-input" cell tag (UPDATE: the celltags extension is no longer installed, but the results are the same):
And, here's the HTML document it creates with the input not removed:
Hiding the cell in the notebook by clicking the tab next to it didn't translate to a hidden cell in the exported HTML doc.
As you can see, I have tried using TagRemovePreprocessor, but that just throws the error that the module is not found even though I have everything installed that I import. I tried a couple of fixes to that, which didn't work, but I don't really want to shave that yak if I don't need to.
I'd rather cell tags just work, like in R Studio markdown documents. At this point, it might even be easier to copy and paste my notebook to an RMD and run it with a Python kernel, since RMDs have that widget and easy tag built in and functional.
All that said, any Jupyter Notebook or Jupyter Lab solution is welcome, especially if it's just a simple toggle that actually works.
Thanks!
P.S. Here's the code from the commented out first cell, and the error from it:

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'TagRemovePreprocessor'
I have installed nbconvert, and TagRemovePreprocessor doesn't throw an error in its import statement.
I can run c.HTMLExporter.preprocessors = ["nbf.preprocessors.TagRemovePreprocessor"] instead of c.HTMLExporter.preprocessors = ["TagRemovePreprocessor"], and I get the same error thrown from the same line except it says there is no module named nbf.
