I`ve made several apps using OpenGeo suite SDK but so far never needed to keep layers from being exposed in the capabilities. Now I´ll like to "hide" some of them but still being able to load them. I taught that the solution was to set the layers as not advertised but if I do that the app will not load those layers!! As far as I understand I should be able to call a layer that is not advertised!! Using geoexplorer and saving the map I can do the same with no problems…. Any idea what may be wrong?

You will need to use lazy loading (which bypasses GetCapabilities, so provide title and bbox properties in the layer's config), see also:
