Extension talk:GuidedTour

There is one archived talk page.

nvm It turned out I didn't know the tour hadn't finished yet.

For some reason the last pop-up of the test tour (the realy short editing pop-up) keeps being loaded upon refreshing the main page. I have EventLogging installed, as in uploaded the files and activating it localsettings. I have no idea if I was supposed to do anything else.

I am logged in as an admin, if that makes a difference.

Like the title says, are we allowed to use this at our own wiki's? They seem very good and handy to me and instead of doing that all by myself, I thought it might come in handier if I used an already set up tour.

Thanks!

In the documentation, two different names for a css file are given, in order to override the css for guidedtours. I tried both, and neither work. Does anyone know what the name of the file should be? The pages I created are MediaWiki:Guidededtour-custom.css and MediaWiki:GuidedTour/custom.css.

@AmieH, according to the documentation it should be `MediaWiki:GuidedTour/custom.css`.

I am currently making a tour but where I the tour point to links and expect the user to click on them instead of the buttons. But some users will click on the X button if no buttons are available which closes the tour. Is it possible to hide the X button? I can't find the option in the Stepbuilder (except to ignore the ESC key).

Hello,

I installed the extension without issues and I created my first tour. Everything works fine for me and other users with the right to read content in the MediaWiki namespace (where the tour is stored); but users with no such right (in my installation all the not logged in users) can't use the tour. Is that a normal behaviour?

When I try to start the tour without logging in, I get this error from my browser debbuger:

The error is: Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token '<'

If I disable the Mediawiki namespace restriction, everything works. Do you have any suggestion to avoid this issue?

Thanks for any help!

I just installed GuidedTour and have modified the example file "myfirstedit". I want to display a link or show an image in the description. However, the wikitext is not resolving. Example:

description: 'Have a look at the page [[Allstyles]]',

Instead of showing a link to the page "Allstyles", the guider still displays [[Allstyles]].

What is causing this?

Found the solution. That's whatonShow: gt.parseDescription does.

Will this work on other wikis with different skins other than the mediawiki vector skin?

The variable declared at the beginning of the code must be an existing page in order to work.

Hello,

I am getting this error. I am testing the extension using the sample tour available in the documentation (here). Any ideas?

Thanks,

Lorenzo

Hello again,

there was a problem with variable 'Help:Guided tours/guider', that must be an existing page in order to work. Everything is ok now.

Bye!

Is it possible to write a guided tour on "User:xxx" page and use it with any possible ways for personal use?

Thanks.

Hello,

I know GuidedTour by French Wikipedia's Tutoriels and I am building some for French Wiktionary. A question arised: are the tours accessible for IP?

Yes. Just log out and visit https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth?tour=test .

Great, thank you!

Ahah, you told me to log out, so I did. It works perfectly fine. Thanks!
