- So... expanding from my comment from yesterday, here are my thoughts regarding the "tour".
I think we had the proposal for an interactive "learn the site" tour on the (now deprecated) forum. This doesn't mean a page, where you scroll down and see the different components gliding into the screen with nice effect, but something, were you enter a question (either a proper one or one just "for the guide") and get to know all of the features you have available as new users yet, such as:- 1. categories
- 1. posting questions/articles (and using Markdown)
- 1. posting answers
- 1. posting comments
- 1. flagging
- 1. suggesting edits
- 1. voting
This does sound like a lot features, but I think that it might work for users to teach them their use by using an interactive wizard. I am somehow inspired by Discourse's "sign up tour" here, which you can try out if you sign up on our (now deprecated) forum.
