LESS compiler locked me out of wp-admin (variable is undefined) #610

Hi there,

So I was using the Bootstrap > Advanced > LESS editor to write some custom CSS code. I used a variable that wasnst correctly declared and hit "save". That locked me out of the wordpress administration panel.

"variable @base is undefined" is the only output it shows (after login).

Best regards,

Hey there!

Try commenting out this line in your theme: https://github.com/shoestrap/shoestrap-3/blob/master/framework/bootstrap/class-SS_Framework_Bootstrap.php#L1013 Save the file and try to login again. This line parses the custom LESS... so it should allow you to login to your dashboard again. Once you login, fix your less and then uncomment that line and save your options. This should trigger the compiler again and allow your custom LESS to be compiled.

Let me know if that works for you!

Ari, Thanks alot for anwsering. You solution should work.

Too bad its too late for me. I tried going into the database and changing wp_options > shoestrap. Removed the variable that was causing trouble but something went wrong and now it seems all options are back to defaults (?) so I asume I must've done something wrong. Lost every change I made to the default shoestrap settings.

I gonna revert to my last vmware snapshot and start over, no big deal.

Best regards and thanks.

And for some reason I just changed alot of settings, and when I changed typography settings it all went back to defaults again.

I've encountered this issue multiple times as well. The work-around you've proposed worked, but - as I imagine you'd agree - we still need a permanent solution on this. If you could provide a little insight I could have one of my staff members patch this and submit it to the core.
