LESS/CSS Error - but not really

[TourKick (Clifford P) 1]

I think this happened after installing a Store plugin, but I'm not quite sure.

PageLines Sections LESS/CSS error.

expected color value: failed at `background-color: mix(@startColor, @endColor, 60%);` line: 668

It's a local dev site and I haven't touched it much. I don't have any custom code/css. I ended up renaming the pagelines theme folder; it reverted to Twenty Eleven; I renamed the pagelines folder back to pagelines; re-activated it; and everything seemed fine (i.e. not more error message) and all of a sudden I had several updates available (which I don't think were there before - maybe I just missed them though).

Why an error message that really wasn't an error?

Thanks.

Hi,

I am not sure how you received this error, what was the version you had installed, what store product do you think it was related to ?

Can you provide the above information please.

I installed Viewer via the Store panel, but I did that on more than one site and no other site generated an error.

I have the latest version installed. Just double-checked --> 2.3.3

You 'are' or 'are not' sure how I received the error?

Danny likes to skip a key word or two for mystery. It's that British Agatha Christie thing.

I'm pretty sure that he wasn't sure.

Had you changed the folder name before or after installing the store product? Changing the pagelines folder name is a definite no-no, and I promise, I didn't miss a single consonant or vowel!

Of course, folder name was 'pagelines' until I was going into error fixing mode. I just did it for a short time to get WP to revert back to the default theme. Then I renamed back to 'pagelines'. Seems like it worked. Just odd.

Interesting technique and yes, quite odd. I'll discuss with Simon tomorrow.

Has any light been spread on this? I got a similar problem!
