The fix works for me, thanks!

This issue also occurred for me. I disabled Page Cache and Browser Cache and it doesn’t happen anymore, but the site has slowed down. Please release a fix ASAP.

+1 I also don’t see any settings page in my WordPress installation

Will the solution be added to the next plugin version?

Have you tried removing the theme, re-installing it, and then applying the fix? It seems to work for me.

The specific solution:

Replace functions.php with this version that comments out erroneous ext2type filter and improper registering and enqueueing of javascript

Wonderful, thanks!

Sorry, I meant wp_enqueue_style. Might want to change the instructions here: https://www.ads-software.com/extend/plugins/wp-less/faq/

As I wrote above – the enqueued LESS file only works when it’s added to the ‘wp’ hook. When it’s added to ‘wp_enqueue_scripts’ it doesn’t work. At least not with the Roots theme:
https://www.rootstheme.com/

Plus one.

Update – got it to work with the following code:

function roots_enqueue_less() {
  wp_enqueue_style('roots_app', '/themes/mytheme/assets/css/app.less', array(), '', 'screen, projection');
}

add_action('wp', 'roots_enqueue_less');

1. Full path following wp-content
2. Using wp as the action

In my opinion it should also work with wp_enqueue_scripts action and with the /assets trick.

I investigated further and noticed several issues:

1. Roots theme uses the wp_enqueue_scripts action. It says here to use the wp action. Why is that so? Why doesn’t it work with the wp_enqueue_scripts hook?
2. In the Roots theme there are some htaccess tricks to put all the stylesheets into /assets/css. It seems the WP-LESS plugin needs the full wp-content path to the file. Is this a bug? Any workarounds?

It doesn’t work for me either on WordPress 3.4.2, running on Windows XAMPP. I’m developing a theme with the WordPress Roots theme. I created an app.less file and tried to write some code in it, but the output isn’t compiled to CSS.

Is there any debug info that could help?

FYI, I changed to the much simpler and well functioning YouTube SimpleGallery:

Any idea when the fix is coming? Is there a workaround?
