Hey @craigiswayne,

Thanks for making us aware of this issue. Can you provide some additional information so that we can assist in determining what is causing this error?

Open your terminal app of choice and ensure the current working directory location is the home directory of your user account. You can run pwd to return the current working directory or run cd ~/ to change to the home directory of your user account.

Run the following commands:

npm list -g --depth=0

npm list --depth=0

Please paste the results from each command as a new comment.

Thank you, Allen Moore

Sure... anything to help:

npm list -g --depth=0

I should also mention that this is Mac OSX.

Installed node through Homebrew

[allenmoore]

Hey @craigiswayne,

Thank you for providing the info above. This could potentially be related to node being installed via Homebrew, which can introduce errors/issues with globally installed packages. Based on the issue you have experienced, and with WP-Make's dependency on the extendable-yeoman package, you may be experiencing an issue as mentioned above. Here's a gist that walks through a potential solution to resolve such an issue.

Thank you, Allen Moore

Thanks for the feedback @allenmoore

Got it working already though.

You are welcome to close this.

Looking forward to playing around with this wp-make stuff

Cheers
