When I tried to install compass to my website but it didn't install correctly. I followed the directions to set up my project as a compass project, but when I did that it said it didn't create the three or so folders that it needed, and it said that I need to install them manually. It said my project is now a compass project, but I don't see any difference to my project, and now I can't redo the steps that I went through previously. Can someone help me so I can get my compass project set up. |

To "reset" the project back to its pre-Compass state you need to manually edit either the project file (.csproj or .vbproj) if you are using a Web Application or the WebWorkbench.mswwsettings file if you are using a Web Site. In both cases search for the line containing IsCompassProject and remove it and then reload the project within Visual Studio. In terms of the issue setting up the Compass project (which presumably would happen again if you try it again after resetting it), what type of project are you working with and is it being hosted locally or on a remote server/network share?

Jeremy, thanks for that I haven't tried it yet, but I'll try it sometime tonight or tomorrow. I am working on a website in C# and ASP.net. It's being hosted on a remote server. Thanks for your reply, -John |

Hi John, Compass projects are only supported on the local filesystem so this wont work if your project is hosted on a remote server Im afraid.

Thanks Jeremy, Guess I'll just have to make my own compass-like mix-ins, and such.

Jeremy, I am using Visual Studio 2013 Premium and I have recently installed the Mindscape Plugin for SASS and Compas Support. I have an existing project that I have now fully Integrated to use SASS but I would like to start taking advantage of Compass mixins. Unfortunately I cannot rebuild the project using The Create Compass Project option but I would still like to use the compass features. Is there any way to bring the compass functionality into an existing VS Project? Thanks for your time

Hi Josh, Using the "Setup Compass Project" option just adds the skeleton Compass files to your project and enables the use of the Compass compiler and Spriting tool, its intended to be used on an existing project and doesn't otherwise alter the project other than to add an attribute to the project file indicating the conversion has taken place. If you are using Compass keep in mind you will need to make sure your update config.rb to point to your existing Sass folder its named something other than sass :)
