Tours

In Drupal 8 and later, the Tour module can be used to display a sequence of JavaScript popups.

Primary use cases

Tours have two primary use cases:

• To draw the user's attention to critical components of the interface, especially those elements that might not be immediately obvious
• To guide the user through a workflow

General principles

The general principles of Tours are:

• Tours are a complement (not a substitute) for good interface design.
• Tour text should follow the Drupal style guide for interface text.
• The tour should start and end in a logical place
• If the tour is intended to illustrate a workflow, it should stay focused on completion of a single task. Avoid providing tangential information.
• If the tour is intended to highlight the UI, it may not be necessary or desirable to include every option for every widget.
• Keep tip content short, preferably 1 to 2 sentences.
• Provide examples to give a deeper understanding of tips context.
