import a .less file in theme

Hello there;

the theme for my telligent site is customized using .less files (css), I would like to create a base .less file that contais some global variables, and then imported in another .less file within the same theme.

I tried to use @import "-evo-themefile-url('mystyling.less')"; and @import "mystyling.less" at the top of my less file, but it does not seem to work.

any help on how to make this work?

Thanks,

Juan

Yep, and just to clarify: Style Sheets are auto-rendered, and rendered in the drag/dropped order in which they're defined in the theme. On the other hand, files are not auto-rendered, and are just available…

Hi Juan,

Where are you storing your custom less file? Custom files can be created at (e.g.) Administration > Interface > Theme Studio > Social [Site] , and should be able to include imports there. You can see some of the other less files there for examples.

Helo Steven,

That helped, I was creating my global variable .less file in the wrong location too, it should be under Files and not under Style Sheets in my theme.

it is now resolved.
