Re: rvm_css (v1.2)

OK, Finally getting into LESS in a LESS halfhearted way…

I don’t seem to be able to import a less file with mixins, etc. and use those within the master file.

EXAMPLE.
I have two less files “gradients.less” and “master.less”

gradients.less looks like.

.lesserific{
color:blue;
text-decoration:underline;
}

master.less looks like

@import "/css/gradients.less";

.lester{.lesserific}

I would expect *master.css” to include:

.lester{
color:blue;
text-decoration:underline;
} 

But for some reason .lester doesn’t turn up for the party in “master”

Any ideas fellers?

Re: rvm_css (v1.2)

@mrdale, try:

Re: rvm_css (v1.2)

I think I tried that. No more explicit path than that?

[edit] Works as described. I was missing an error message that was semi hiding.

Might be nice to pipe LESS errors through txp alert dialogs?

Re: rvm_css (v1.2)

Can I suggest a easy mod to the plugin?
In all website where the plugin is used I mod it near line 78

// ' href="'.hu.$file.'" />';
' href="/'.$file.'" />';

So, I can view the css in all subdomine. like www.domine.com

Adding the site URL to the CSS location is a correct practice. It for one, let’s you to install Textpattern to a sub-directory and the link will still be pointing to the correct location.

If you want to change the linked location, you can do it by changing your site_url in your site’s preferences, or by using your own HTML link tag.

What your change practically does, is that it makes so that requests originating from different sub-domains use that different origin domain to access the file, basically leading to different file location. This then allows serving different file based on the domain, and makes so that web browsers do not consider the file as same and will cache requests originating from different sub-domains separately.

Inline alert boxes would be possibility, dialogs not so much. You can only have one per page and they do not host larger amount of content that well (the height is limited).

Re: rvm_css (v1.2)

Hi ruud,
Just a heads up that in txp 4.7.0 beta 2, the title in Preferences>Admin appears as rvm_css_dir instead of Style directory.

Re: rvm_css (v1.2)

Further testing revealed that the css static file is not updated on txp 4.7.0 beta 2.

>Edited to add that spf_js saves the file just fine.

Yiannis, if you have only one theme installed, that’s weird. Otherwise, this could be an explanation.

Hi Oleg,
I am testing the beta on a cloned site so technically I have no themes installed.

Re: rvm_css (v1.2)

Hi Yiannis,

check if the plugin type is “Public+Admin (+AJAX)”. This will not fix everything, but should work for one theme.

That was it! The plugin type was just “Public+Admin.” Changing it to include Ajax did the trick.

Re: rvm_css (v1.2)

I’ve just release a new version of this plugin that fixes the aforementioned problems and is also compatible with multi-theme support in TXP 4.7.
