 * How does this plugin work? Does it automatically compile the LESS to CSS every
   time there is a new version?
 * Does it automatically output the LESS/CSS stylesheet into the head section (since
   you say that it will show LESS to admins, but CSS to guests)?
 * And if it does automatically output the stylesheet, how should I include it in
   the head? Do I have to do wp_enqueue_style(), and use the link to the LESS file,
   or do I not include anything (and it is automatically added through wp_head())?

 * Never mind, I bumped into this post to compile my less files manually and it 
   works great!

 * Same question! 😉 It would be great to have a trigger / watcher of the .less 
   file to update the .css everytime the .less file is changed…
 * I have triyed via FTP but it doesn’t work this way. I have to clic to “compile”
   every time i change my .less
