 * Hi all,
 * I am working on a site which uses the touchfolio theme:
 * [http://dimsemenov.com/themes/touchfolio/](http://dimsemenov.com/themes/touchfolio/)
 * A wp-less plugin is shipped with the theme and so I attempted to customize the
   theme using this tool. For the items that are already listed in the .less file
   this works great. However I was wondering how to modify things that are NOT listed
   in the .less file.
 * For example I tried adding this to my .less in order to modify the margin at 
   the top of the content section of the page:
 * content { margin-top: 100px;)
 * Doesn’t work 🙁
 * Anyone have experience with .less that can give me some pointers?
 * Thank you!
    Damien

 * Hi,
 * as some other have reported, the plugin only detects updated `.less` files which
   are registered via WP API.
 * If you `@import` LESS files within your code, it does not detect changes.
    The
   only solution for the moment is to alter a registered LESS file or clear the 
   compiled file (in your `wp-content/uploads/wp-less` directory).
 * If you work on a local environment, activating `WP_DEBUG` will force file compilation
   on every page of your WP instance.
