I'm trying to figure out all of the files that are in the CSS directory and not in the LESS directory.
I mean, I understand the difference between LESS and CSS files, but if I were to link to everything in the LESS folder, what would be left over in the CSS folder (assuming I need to link to all stylesheets without redundant styles already covered in LESS files)?
I hope that makes sense. I feel like I'm overlooking something simple, here.
Hello,
We have added the Instructions for setting up LESS in the Documentation > Start > LESS Setup Section which explains exactly what to change in the Existing CSS Order in the Document <head>. This will definitely work fine.
Let us know if we can help you with anything else or if you find any further issues.
Hello, I am very new to less. I am trying to convert the system from css to less and has followed the instruction within the documentation. Unfortunately, it didn't work and I notice that not all css files have a corresponding less files, and thus I am very confused.
You can view my design for the client using Canvas from this link:

I have created a template for the design using css files and you can view it from this link:

I have created another file, trying to use the less set up rather than the css set up but is not working:

Can you let me know what I did wrong?
Thank you and I look forward to your help.
Hello,
Not at the CSS Files need LESS Files since there are also some Third-Party CSS Files like css/bootstrap.css, css/font-icons.css, css/animate.css and css/magnific-popup.css which do not require LESS Conversions. You will only need to change the specific CSS files linking mentioned in the Documentation > Start > LESS Setup Section to their LESS Files and the rest CSS Files should be kept as it is.
Additionally, we have just checked out your Website which uses the LESS Setup and found that none of the LESS Files have been uploaded to your Server. Please upload the LESS Files to the Server and use the above instructions and the issue will get resolved automatically.
