Guided first login plugin
By OregonMike
I 'm looking for a plugin that would help a new user take their first steps. Given the complexity of an elgg site, I've found that even smart users feel a little lost without someone giving them some help.
I envision something like the following.
1. User logs in.
2. user prompted to add info which goes into their profile
3. user prompted to add avatar.
4. user is presented with some popular groups they might want to join
5. user is asked to input a few email addresses of friends they'd like to invite.
etc. etc. etc.
By following a series of screens prompting the user, the user would learn some basic terminology and site layout and enjoy an easier first time experience.
Does anything like this exist?

-> http://www.community-software-24.com/ at http://community.elgg.org/mod/groups/topicposts.php?topic=406960&group_guid=52477&offset=50 is most probably the best known implementation of interaction between registeration logic and the new user - it guides the user through each input field with suggestions for the required input. while negating spam-bots from being ale to use the process because a human is needed to go step by step.also "Reachel" created by Trajan and DDS when completed will be (for some time) the only interactive and user driven and context sensitive help-system known on elgg. and.. these two technologies were created via some heavy effort.. and so no (to pre-empt the freebie-seekers) they cannot be made available for free - we have rent and groceries to pay for too, just like everybody else. while the free stuff will continue to flow freely on these forum posts here anyways.
