I'm new to Umbraco and am probably missing something easy to find but any suggestions would be useful.
I've been trying out the newest package (good work btw!) and have been trying to port over a purchased set of bootstrap templates that only came with CSS files. The info page for your package says its supports CSS and LESS, but I can't see how to disable the use of LESS and just use CSS files.
I tried removing all the .less files from Combres.config and over writing the theme.css with my templates file, also adding the other CSS files but it doesnt pick up the CSS from other files (changed the clientDependancy version number, many times) and looking at the .axd file its only a few lines long as if its only finding one item.
The end result was a totally unthemed page, so rolled it back to the "out of the box" set up. Tried setting defaultDebugEnabled in combres.config to true to see if that did something different (like not squash the files and show in normal css links but no such luck).
Would be nice to try and do something properly, otherwise I might just remove the references to less and link up the CSS files manually, but that seems a waste when you've got a good system in place.
Can you disable use of .LESS and only use CSS files?

Hi Jorge,
Thanks for the pointers. I will try out those suggestions tomorrow at work, looks easy enough to swap over when you know where to look!
Cheers,

Hi,
I'm having real trouble getting this to work.
I've followed the instructions above and nothing changes.
The minified versions of the files are still being served to the page.
What I'd ideally like to do is work on the css files without them being minified, but this doesn't seem to be possible?
Cheers,
D
