 * Hi, my client tried to change the URL themselves and I’ve managed to get the 
   site back but am getting this error:
 *     ```

 * FYI the site was moved from [http://ecoarbor.co.uk/wordpress](http://ecoarbor.co.uk/wordpress)
   to [http://ecoarbor.co.uk/](http://ecoarbor.co.uk/)
 * Also … [http://ecoarbor.co.uk/wp-admin/](http://ecoarbor.co.uk/wp-admin/) doesnt
   work?
 * Any ideas?
 * Thanks

 * This looks more like an issue with the LESS configuration than an actual WordPress
   problem.
 * Is LESS set up/configured at all on the new server?

 * Hey, thanks for the reply. I’m honestly not sure what less is? It’s something
   they set up without me. Is it something I need to change the URL in?
 * Thanks in advance

 * It’s a preprocessor — basically a bit of software that compiles your .LESS files
   into proper CSS. The original developer of the site probably set it up to work
   like that?

 * No I’m just helping them fix it up now. Any idea how to sort this less thing 
   out?!

 * I’m not very experienced with LESS. Maybe it’s very simple to set it up/configure.
 * But fact remains that the site requires LESS to be set up. So you’ll either have
   to get LESS running on the new server, or you’ll need to remove it from the configuration
   of the site.
 * Perhaps try to get in touch with the original developer, he/she should be able
   to help you with setting it back up on the new server or tell you how to remove
   it from the site.

 * Hi Marilyn,
    Dunno if you solved your issue but … Did you ? I got the same problem
   today after i tried to **create a child them** for CherryFramework default (free)
   theme. I’ve spend all my friday trying to find a fix … nothing. Same error message
   on this site [here ](http://applesandjam.com.au/apples-jam/gardening-club/): 
   I’ve read [in a post](http://smallmouthmediagroup.com/moving-wordpress-site-cherry-framework-tip-lessphp-errors/)
   that after a site migration, some less.cache files should be deleted in the theme
   folder . It didn’t work for me. Anyway, i work on a fresh installed site (no 
   migration). I keep on searching …

 * Delete these files from ftp:
 * Cherry theme main folder:
    less/style.less.cache less/bootstrap.less.cache
 * Child theme folder:
    style.less.cache less/bootstrap.less.cache

 * THANKS! Worked! Only slight difference:
 * Child theme folder:
 * bootstrap/less/bootstrap.less.cache
 * perhaps due to updated plugin since this post?
 * Thanks anyway! All is not lost 🙂
