LESS, customize Template, Compiler

Hi

i bought the Evolve Theme and installed it with the "Profile Installation".

My sites/all/themes folder ist empty.
I have a sites/default/files/drupalexp folder. When i switch the presets in the backoffice, a new file is generated in drupalexp/css folder.

Ok so far.

Now i want to work with a subtheme (sites/all/themes/evolve or do i have to rename it to evolve_sub) to be able to update the default evolve theme if you release an update.
How does that work?

What do i have to do for example if i want to change the line-height from the site-logo from 100px to 200px. If i inspect it with Firebug the url to the css file is ...../sites/default/files/drupalexp/css/style-preset3.css?nskf1c

Where do i have to change 100px to 200px in a LESS file - in a sub theme.

Do i have to install a LESS compiler on the server?

Can i deactivate the the Values in the Evolve Backoffice Apperance?

Thank for your help

Hello Flo,

When you install site use profile installation method, the theme will be located in profiles/dexp_evolve/themes folder.

The LESS complier is integrated in drupalexp framework already, So when you make any changes in less files (profiles/dexp_evolve/themes/evolve/lessc folder), it will re-complie all less files to /sites/default/files/drupalexp/css/ folder.

To change the logo height from 100px to 200px you can change it by edit file profiles/dexp_evolve/themes/evolve/lessc/mainmenu.less

Thank you.

Thank you,

we had a time difference in php. That is fixed now. And it works also if we copy drupalexp and evolve folders to sites/all/themes/ or do you see a problem when copying these files to the themes directory?

Have a nice day

What if I installed the Demo site, instead of profile for installing, and want to make changes?

for clarification: I do not have the profile drupalexp in /profiles
