I wish Connect can have a Tutorial for new members upon first sign-in

I just finish sign-up to https://discussions.fedoraproject.org

 

I am really impressed with their robot based new member tutorial delivered through private messaging.

 

The process is like this:

1.  Upon first sign-in, a spotlight is shown on the Alert indicator, asking to click on it

2.  Once clicked, it bring to me a welcome private message from a robot

3.  In the message, there is a challenge for a reply.  I need to reply with the correct content based on the challenge.

4.  When I successfully complete all the challenges, a digital certificate of achivement is issued to me.

 

Types of challenges include:

- include URLs in a reply

- include emojis in a reply, using either keyboard 🙂 or emoji editor

- like a message

- mention the robot in a reply

- include bold and italic text in a reply, using keyboard code or buttons in the editor

- quote part of a message in a reply

- include a picture in a reply

- flag a message as inappropriate

- do a simple search

 

I am not saying Connect's tutorial must include all of the above elements, a good tutorial will help new members settle in Connect much better. 

 

A robot based auto reply system can have a lot of good users also.

Esta muy buena la idea @YK1001, esto agilizaría el proceso de inicio de los usuarios y permitirá que todos y cada uno de ellos lean lo básico para iniciarse en Connect

Hi @YK1001, we've explored this a number of times in the past, however, extending or changing the mention list will result in slower loading times for everyone as the mention list does a lot of work we don't see. Hopefully we can revisit this in the future but as it's not something we can do in the next six months, I will mark this idea as closed but it's on our radar! Thank you for sharing the idea!

Local Guides should give new people a tutorial! and be able to add parks, like Callan Park

Local Guides should let you add parks.

 

It should also give you a tutorial and show you everything you need to know!

Hello @Anonymous, I am making an attempt to offer a kind of tutorial with the LetsGuide Podcast. Perhaps you can listen to a few episodes to find out if it is helpful to you? You can listen to it in all popular podcasting apps, or on the website.

Hi @Anonymous,

 

Thanks for submitting your idea!

 

I'd like to inform you, that it is related to I wish Connect can have a Tutorial for new members upon first sign-in, and for that reason, I'm going to merge it there.
