Extension talk:GuidedTour/Archive1

Guided Tour example
add this to your common.js:

importScript('User:Tychay/guidedTour.js');

To launch the tour, just add "tour=test" to the query string.

Right now, if you look at the user script, you can see it can only handle tours in tours userspace for example. You can easily change that. :-)

Files:
 * User:Tychay/guidedTour.js: the gadget
 * guidedTour/guiders.js: guiders.js
 * guidedTour/guiders.css: guiders.css
 * guidedTour/utils.js: non guiders-specific code
 * User:Tychay/tours/test.js: a sample tour

Neat idea
I came here from .

I just installed the guided tours user script and played around with it for a minute. This is neat. :-) For opt-in tours (how-to guides, etc.), it seems like it'd work really well.

The meta-tour seemed to kind of end abruptly. I couldn't tell if it was a work in progress or if it just stopped after explaining the gadget and the URL/cookie trick. It's unclear what kind of audience would be (will be) writing tours.

"We're starting with Wikipedia" was darkly amusing. --MZMcBride (talk) 02:51, 28 November 2012 (UTC)
