I want to use a lightbox gem such as fancybox or color box. Both gems ask to add this line in the application.css
*=require colorbox-rails
Here's the problem. I only have application.css.scss files. All my css files are scss files. I have import statements in the application.css.scss but no *=require statements. Adding the above line results in the error :
Invalid CSS after "*": expected "{", was "=require colorb..."
application.css.scss or application.css are kinda the same. Just rename your application.css to application.css.scss.
As for adding that line, it'll need to be right up the top, in a comment. Like this:
/* * This is a manifest file that'll be compiled into application.css, which will include all the files * listed below. * * Any CSS and SCSS file within this directory, lib/assets/stylesheets, vendor/assets/stylesheets, * or vendor/assets/stylesheets of plugins, if any, can be referenced here using a relative path. * * You're free to add application-wide styles to this file and they'll appear at the bottom of the * compiled file so the styles you add here take precedence over styles defined in any styles * defined in the other CSS/SCSS files in this directory. It is generally better to create a new * file per style scope. * *= require_self *= require colorbox-rails */@import"bootstrap";@import"welcome";@import"sessions";@import"users";

Explicitly, I had this issue with fonts files declaring different font-faces using a single font.scss file in my stylesheets directory (Rails app using sass and haml). I had followed related issues (like this article on SO) and had tried a number of related solutions like removing '-' from font ttf filename, changing the url declarations in the font.scss file, etc.
@joshua.paling's solution worked for me ...
Change the font.scss file name to font.css
utilize the following declaration style in the application.scss file:
/* ... *= require_self *= require fonts */# @import other files here excluding the font.css file
And with this configuration the following font-face declarations still worked
