Kjo shtojcë **s’është testuar me 3 hedhjet e rëndësishme të fundit në qarkullim 
të WordPress-it**. Mund të mos e mirëmbajnë më, ose mundet të mos mbulohet më dhe

## Përshkrim

[LESS](http://lesscss.org) is a templating language based on top of CSS. It provides
numerous enhancements to speed up development and make its maintenance easier.

Theme developers can even bundle the plugin without worrying about conflicts: just
include the special `bootstrap-for-theme.php` and read its instructions.

#### Veçori

 * Variables
 * Mixins (inheritance of rules)
 * Nested Rules (write less, do more)
 * Accessors (inherit a value from a specific rule)
 * Functions (logic operations for dynamic results)

The plugin lets you concentrate on what you need: coding CSS. Everything else is
handled automatically, from cache management to user delivery.
 Seriously.

#### Documentation

Advanced topics on how to use the plugin API are [available on the Github project documentation](https://github.com/oncletom/wp-less/tree/master/doc).

#### Requirements

The sole requirement is to use WordPress API and LESS convention: the `.less` extension.

**Minimal Requirements**: PHP 5.3 and WordPress 3.2.
 **Relies on**: [Less.php](http://lessphp.gpeasy.com/),
[plugin-toolkit](https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/plugin-toolkit/).

_Notice_: in case you’d like to drop the usage of this plugin, it’s safe to do it.
You will just need to convert back your stylesheets to CSS.

## Instalim

#### Automatic

 1. Search for the plugin name (`WP-LESS`)
 2. Click on the install button
 3. Activate it

#### Manual

 1. Download the latest stable archive of the plugin
 2. Unzip it in your plugin folder (by default, `wp-content/plugins`)
 3. Activate it through your WordPress plugins administration page

## PBR

Lots of efforts have been done to write a [consistent documentation](https://github.com/oncletom/wp-less/tree/master/doc)

to address issues you may encounter.

It covers topics like path customization, declaring LESS variables from PHP, creating
new LESS functions etc.

 [Makapaka](https://profiles.wordpress.org/makapaka/) 3 Shtator, 2016

This plugin is fast and error free. It allows to easly add Less support to your 
WP theme. No needed configuration, just treat your *.less files like regular *.css
in your theme’s directory.

Thank you for this amazing plugin, it saves us Theme Developers lots of time with
this simple implementation directly from the theme. i love the passing of variables
as well. The only thing im not yet figuring it out is the CSS generated from the
plugin doent cache, am i missing sth?
