Is there instructions somewhere to modify the looks of the banner?

Nothing specific to the subscriptions campaign banner, but there are general instructions for styling your discourse instance. I would start there.

Also, when I click add to sidebar nothing happens,

It moves it to the right sidebar actually. I don’t know the full history behind it, but probably predates the left-side sidebar being default enabled.

ideally I’d just like a simple text link here

I wouldn’t be apposed to eventually adding some sort of support for a subscribe button/link on the left sidebar though. As an admin though you can customize that section manually and add your own subscribe link.

One final thing I’ve not figured out is where to set the subscription value to groups?

I’d like subscribers to be bumped to trust level 2 but don’t see where that’s managed?

When you setup a product you can choose which group members will be added to when they subscribe:

There isn’t anything to bump users to a certain trust level, but many settings now have a list of groups to control what they users can do vs just trust levels, so you might be able to add the group you choose to those settings. Just picking a random setting as an example:

EDIT: Actually you can configure your group to bump a user to a certain trust level
