    I vaguely remember that upgrading a child theme is not as easy as just installing it.  Is there a trick to upgrading a child theme?  I haven't customized it much, so I'm not to worried about losing customizations.

    I just tried installing Executive 2.0, which failed since there's a folder called /executive already.  That's obviously my first problem.  Is it as simple as deleting the existing /executive folder and then installing 2.0?

    Worked like a charm.  Huge difference between the two versions.  I love it when things work simply.

    Thanks,
