SASS compiler intermittently buggy

Has anyone else had this problem. I setup the very basics of SASS compiler:
- Enable Auto Compilation on Save
+ Same Folder as Source and set a source folder

It will sometimes just stop compiling and I have to restart DW or reboot, very annoying.

Am using up to date Mac DW CC.

    Correct answer B i r n o u

    of course the structure used to compile scss into css has nothing to do with the problem you are having.


    the file structure that I advised you is a note that may be of interest if you decide to actually change the CSS in a WordPress powered site, instead of the structure you presented

    I get that you have no probs under Windows 10 - maybe it is a mac thing.

    The file structure or Wordpress issues are not relevant to the issue.

    Aside from when I use the source files from Bootstrap 4, I do not have a problem with Sass in Dreamweaver. This will probably not help you, but you have not given us any information as to how you have structured the file system.

    I have a source folder where I place the source files

    and a production folder where the compiled versions are saved.

    Note also that all of my partials are prefixed with an underscore.

    The reason that I cannot use Dreamweaver to compile Bootstrap 4 source files is because they require an auto-prefixer. I now use Prepros for my Bootstrap 4 sites.

    Wappler is the DMXzone-made Dreamweaver replacement and includes the best of their powerful extensions, as well as much more!

    Thanks for reply. I am just starting a WP site, and for now this is very simple structure at the moment with just 2 imports.
    The bugs happens in many different sites though I can get SASS working sometimes straightaway sometimes I have to open close DW or reboot to get compiler to start, most often when it is working will just stop compiling at some stage.
