So I haven't really been able to find an answer for this yet:

How do you set a temporary folder/catalog for all the html output to be stored?

Right now, it saves all the html/png outputs in the "current directory" folder. What's even mroe annoying is when you use the %include macro, the current directory changes to that folder and all the output is stored there. The only fix for this I have found is to use: ods html path="". However, I will have to do that after all the %include macros have run. Is there a way to permanently have the html saved to a temporary folder and then discarded after the session?

Do you have preferences set to use the WORK folder for results? Tools>Options>Preferences>Results, Use WORK folder checked?
