Ensure .less file is included last

    I would like to use a custom.less file to override CSS definitions in my acquired theme. I know I can include a “!important” parameter on each CSS definition, but I would rather force the custom.less file to be included as the last stylesheet. I have tried using the add_action command in my theme’s functions.php file with a priority of 99. The custom.less file is included just fine, but is not the last stylesheet included. How can I force the compiled .less file to be the last stylesheet? I have thought about modifying the header.php file to enter the stylesheet reference there, but wasn’t sure how to do this with wp-less.

    Many thanks for any help!

    I think I understand what you are trying to do but it’s not related to the plugin; only to the way you enqueue CSS files.

    You should either plug your LESS file in a hook happening after the one loading the CSS file. Otherwise, you should access the $wp_styles (or a similar global containing styles/scripts loader) and change the priority.

    What is the proper code for plugging the LESS file in hook?

    @colinaclark: just as you already do for regular CSS files, it’s related to the registration’s order of the file (maybe some frameworks add some sugar to ease this part but I don’t have more clue on this right now).
