Your problem is:

npm WARN cannot run in wd roots@7.0.0 bower install (wd=/srv/www/findhvacdealer.com/wp-content/themes/roots)

Try running bower install and paste the output.

BTW, you mentioned you’re running this on a VPS so my guess is that this is a permissions issue. Roots is not designed to be built on a remote server. This particular stage you’re experiencing difficulty with is intended to be completed locally and your final development work product should then be deployed.

See this comment.

I’ve done this with every Roots 6.x site…I setup the VPS from scratch. Debian 7.4 and I’m even signed in as root.

This bower thing is new.

27

I’ve done this with every Roots 6.x site

That doesn’t make it right :wink:

So did you visit those links and read through them?

28

I just followed the link and doc step by step until Grunt failed.

I need to be able to deploy without depending on a local MAMP environment. If I can’t do this with Roots, I guess I need to know that. It’s just so weird…every WordPress site (over 30) has been in Roots with no problems. This theme has been amazing.

*** Update ***

I’m gonna setup a MAMP install locally and try all of this again.

29

Ok, but you’re using Roots in an environment it is not intended for.

Anyhow, bower install is what will install Bootstrap, which is what you’re missing, which is why Grunt is not happy.

Check this out, then do bower install, then your grunt should run just fine. If not, check this out too.

31

  1. Deleted Wordpress and database to start from scratch

  2. Created DB and installed WordPress 3.9.1

  3. Downloaded Roots from Github as zip file. Copied to themes folder.

  4. Activated Roots and accepted the defaults

  5. Signed into Debian and ran npm install -g grunt-cli

  6. Navigated to theme root and ran npm install

  7. It failed at the Bower part, saying npm WARN cannot run in wd roots@7.0.0 bower install

  8. Installed Bower with bower install --allow-root

  9. Bower said git wasn’t installed

  10. Ran apt-get install git-core

  11. Installed bower again. The only two errors received were:

    bower invalid-meta modernizr is missing “main” entry in bower.json
    bower invalid-meta modernizr is missing “ignore” entry in bower.json

  12. Vendor folder is there in assets now

  13. Deleted the node_modules folder

  14. Ran grunt. It said grunt hasn’t been installed locally to the project.

  15. Ran npm install

  16. grunt runs now

  17. Opened assets/css/main.css and added styling

  18. site ignores the styling

  19. create assets/css/main.min.css and added styling

  20. the site accepts the styling

I didn’t touch scripts.php or any files at all on this fresh install. Still styles wouldn’t work from main.css. They only work if I create a main.min.css. Any help great appreciated…I’m completely confused with Roots 7.

32

Ok, looks like you got it.

But seriously, I mentioned your CSS/LESS issue at least five times up above:

…place your CSS/LESS in assets/less/main.less…

You should be adding CSS/LESS to a file named assets/less/main.less…

Your CSS and LESS styles belong in assets/less/main.less…

There is no need to touch main.css [or main.min.css] directly at all ever, it’s a file that gets output by Grunt.

…when you added CSS to main.css you were adding styles to a file that Grunt is, by default, set to overwrite during its build process.

If something is unclear then let me know!

33

Hey man, I did try that - see above from four hours ago. I tried to put my styling in main.less and it didn’t work.

Unless I’m missing something. I feel like excavating my brain cavity with a round piece of gun-powder backed metal.

Thanks for sticking with me on this. I’ve left the office for the day, but I’ll be back in the AM trying the main.less thing again.

34

No worries, that’s quite a metaphor!

So put your custom styles in main.less and run grunt. Leave main.css alone. Grunt will compile your styles into main.css and main.min.css automatically. That’s been standard Roots workflow with Grunt for a while now (although before 7.0 main.less was app.less and the Grunt default was to compile one minified CSS file).

35

Good morning…I toasted my WP install and started clean again just to get the steps down without errors. Everything is working except…Roots isn’t reading the styles from main.less.

  1. Created DB and installed WordPress 3.9.1

  2. Downloaded Roots from Github as zip file. Copied to themes folder.

  3. Activated Roots and accepted the defaults

  4. Signed into Debian and ran npm install -g grunt-cli6

  5. Navigated to theme root and ran npm install

  6. It failed at the Bower part,

  7. Installed Bower with: bower install --allow-root

*If Bower says Git isn’t installed, you can install on Debian/Ubuntu with: apt-get install git-core

  1. Tried running Grunt. It ran without problems!

  2. I then added styling to main.less and ran Grunt again. Ran fine but site didn’t reflect styling.

  3. Removed @import "_bootstrap" from main.less and ran Grunt. It failed with this:

    root@galaxy-one:/srv/www/findhvacdealer.com/wp-content/themes/roots# grunt
    Running “jshint:all” (jshint) task

    2 files lint free.

    Running “less:dev” (less) task

    NameError: variable @line-height-computed is undefined in assets/less/components/_media.less on line 8, column 13:
    7 .gallery-row {
    8 padding: (@line-height-computed / 2) 0;
    9 }
    Warning: Error compiling assets/less/main.less Use --force to continue.

    Aborted due to warnings.

  4. Placed Bootstrap back in and Grunt was happy again.

  5. Opened Gruntfile.js from the theme root. The docs talk about an Uglify section, but there isn’t one anymore. So I removed all of the boostrap references under: var jsFileList = [

  6. Edited main.less and removed the Boostrap import.

  7. Ran Grunt. It failed.

  8. Edited main.less again, and removed everything so main.less was completely empty.

  9. Ran Grunt. It worked.

  10. Added one line of styling back in: body {background:#bcbcbc;font-size:24px;}

  11. Ran Grunt and it worked. Checked assets/css/main.css and the line I added in main.less was in there.

  12. However, styling NOT applied to site.

So my question is, how do I get Roots 7 to recognize styling? For example, to continue on with the above:

  1. I created assets/css/main.min.css and added the above line of styling.

  2. Checked the site and BOOM. The styling took.

I don’t need to use LESS ever. The sites we’re doing are small, non-ecommerce information sites. I just want to be boostrap free and have a style sheet to work in. Is Roots able to do this for me still? Can I just use main.min.css now instead of app.css?

36

Re step 10 & 14: Didn’t you ask how to remove Bootstrap in this thread? It seems like you’re not following those same steps that originally worked. You need to remove more than just the first Bootstrap @import line. Follow that post.

Re step 19: If you just run grunt in your shell, the default task that will be run is grunt dev, which will only output unminified JS/CSS assets by default. The only way Roots will tell WP to read those unminified assets is if you have define('WP_ENV', 'development'); in your wp-config.php file (see here).

If you have not defined WP_ENV anywhere then Roots tells WP to look for minfied assets, which you did not build yet. You should be able to test that by running grunt build, which will output the correct minfied assets based on your main.less file and your site should then reflect the changes you made to main.less.

So you have a few options. You can define WP_ENV, but it appears you’re developing remotely, so that may not be appropriate for you, or you can change Grunt’s default behavior from dev to build.

Heads up! If you use grunt watch then by default Grunt will only generate unminified assets. If you want to alter that behavior then check out this recent thread: Add x.min.css & x.min.script to watch.

But seriously, if you are using Grunt then you should NOT directly touch, create, delete, copy, cut, paste, zip, unzip, or modify your main.css or main.min.css. Put that out of your head and get it out of your workflow. It’s akin to modifying WordPress core files. If you touch those CSS files and then subsequently run Grunt, any changes to them will be lost.

37

Thanks cfx.

I did follow your advice from the other thread that day, and am doing that today - all lines from main.less are toasted. The nuking of Boostrap is good I think. Thanks!

As for the Grunt stuff, I’m gonna have to read your comments a few times for all of that to sink in. I’m a front end designer and past server admin. Anything else like hard core PHP or this dev stuff is over my head.

But let me get this right: You’re saying that this new workflow makes you run Grunt every time you update a style? But that Grunt Watch will do this automatically? But what if I launch a site off my dev server, and then the next day need to change something…do I need to install all of that npm stuff again? It’s overkill for me.

Plus, some customers want their sites on shared hosting at Godaddy and crap that like. I wouldn’t be able to do any grunt stuff there.

This link is what I was doing with 6.5: [http://notebook.gaslampmedia.com/moved-app-css/][1]
[1]: http://notebook.gaslampmedia.com/moved-app-css/

Is there any way to just enqueue an extra style sheet? I get that grunt seems to be setup to combine custom css with Bootstrap, but that doesn’t apply to those of us who don’t want to use bloated frameworks.

38

But let me get this right: You’re saying that this new workflow makes you run Grunt every time you update a style? But that Grunt Watch will do this automatically?

Yes, but this is not new. It’s been possible since Grunt was added to Roots around Jan/Feb 2013.

But what if I launch a site off my dev server, and then the next day need to change something…do I need to install all of that npm stuff again?

Not at all, but the Roots + Grunt workflow is geared towards developers running local development environments and version control. The ideal workflow is: develop locally with Grunt, then deploy final assets with version control (without installing Grunt remotely). When remote/live changes need to be made, you make them first locally (and test them!) and deploy them via your version control system of choice (I personally use Git). Hopefully it’s becoming more apparent to you why Roots is meant to be developed locally first and foremost.

Plus, some customers want their sites on shared hosting at Godaddy and crap that like. I wouldn’t be able to do any grunt stuff there.

You got that right!

This link is what I was doing with 6.5: notebook.gaslampmedia.com

That site completely disregards the premise that the Roots + Grunt workflow is intended for localhost development only. If you want to eliminate Grunt from your project altogether, it’s a decent hack. But the bottom line, again, is that you should not be installing Grunt remotely. Install it locally, do your thing, then deploy your final project files remotely. I know you’ve done it before, but that does not matter. It was improper then and still is.

Is there any way to just enqueue an extra style sheet?

Sure, follow that link in your post if you want to remove Grunt. Your biggest hurdle is coming to the realization that you either need to (1) develop locally with Grunt and version control (way of the future/present), or (2) remain stuck in the past developing remotely and trying desperately to implement local workflows on remote systems. If you choose #2 you can always just leave Grunt out of your workflow.

39

cfx, thanks again for your detailed explanations.

I want you to know, I’m going to refer to them ongoing, and your suggestions about ideal development is not falling on deaf ears. The problem is I don’t know anything about Git right now, and am not going to take the time to learn it at the moment. First and foremost I’m an indie filmmaker who also does site work to pay the bills. So…I’d rather spend time learning about the new Black Magic 4K camera than Git.

To recap yesterday’s stuff, I think it all began with bower not installing with npm. I don’t know enough to even look for that, and still don’t even know what bower is. Installing bower after npm using the bower install --allow-root is technically what fixed the problem for me, in addition to the equeue below.

For anyone else reading this who needs a way to use a style sheet outside of Git, especially those not using Bootstrap, in addition to the steps listed above, add this to your functions.php file:

add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'your_randomname_styles');

function your_randomname_styles(){

    wp_enqueue_style( 'your_randomname_styles', get_template_directory_uri() . '/assets/css/app.css');

}

Then make sure you have an app.css in your assets/css folder.

cfx, again, thank you very much for all the detailed info. I might get into git hub stuff, just not at the moment.

I was having the same issue and I figured out if you don’t clone and download roots. It doesn’t have .bowerrc and .jshintrc file and .bowerrc is needed for boostrap to be loaded. Hope this helps with those that have no vendor folder.
