I want all of my \subsection
behave like \subsection*
Instead of adding *
everywhere, I like to add a few lines in the preamble. What should I do? Can I just \renewcommand
?
Write
\setcounter{secnumdepth}{1}
in your preamble. This says to LaTeX that only first level sections should be numbered; \subsection
is level 2.
As Gonzalo Medina points out, there's also the tocdepth
counter that controls what section levels are included in the table of contents. LaTeX is happy to include also unnumbered section levels in the ToC, it's a matter of taste and of the document's nature how deep one should go.

Here is a way to redefine it. This uses the solution from Swap definition of starred and non-starred command:
\documentclass{article}
\makeatletter
\let\oldsubsection\subsection
\renewcommand\subsection{\@ifstar{\oldsubsection}{\oldsubsection*}}
\makeatother
\begin{document}
\section{First section}
\subsection{First subsection}
\end{document}
sed
for example) would work just fine... – ℝaphink Sep 12 '11 at 16:38
