Why is this Bolt forum not on its own website? It makes more sense to go to a forum on Bolt.cm for Bolt related issues rather than going to the forum of PivotX.
I'm brand new (this morning) to Bolt. From looking around, it looks like Bolt is the next iteration of PivotX? I do admit it was a bit of a turnoff at first.
Yes, Bolt is the next PivotX as I see it. Although, it is also a brand new cms that is in many ways different. I hesitated also, but now I adapted Bolt because I have used Pivot and PivotX for years and the only option for me is using their successor. Read the documentation and experiment with Bolt. You will get used to it and love it!
