Thank you!

Head here, you'll need to install Bolt like normal using the Green download button. You can import the entire zip on your 2.2.1 installation. Then on the left side, click the download bolt v2 button. This is a child style that you can import directly under the Bolt (PARENT DO NOT EDIT). You can edit/rename the v2. When you go to upgrade you'll only upgrade the main Bolt Parent.

Let me know if that all works. We're going through a site revamp with new docs/store that'll make this clearer.

Can I upload this style to my test site of another domain? Want to see if it'll work. It's a great style.

I have edge I believe running live on that site.

Also how do I set up the dark light style chooser with this one?

Sure! You can have it on another test site.

The easiest method will be to download the Bolt dark CHILD style from the same link above, import as a child of your style. That will it will inherit most of your changes (footer settings, logo, other items). From there you can set up the light bulb: https://pixelexit.com/documentation/light-switch/

Does this work in general? i.e. If I download the Dark style, add it as a child to Bolt Canvas, will it give me a "dark canvas" style?

Technically it should. The dark child styles mainly edit the color palette for the most part. Might need some tweaks but it should work.
