Since version 1.6.0.11 of PrestaShop, any new installation has the OnBoarding module activated by default. That module has been built from the ground up to help new users quickly understand the way the back-office back office works, taking them from basic customization to the shop's launch, with steps covering adding a product to the catalog, configuring the shop's payment methods, and choose the default shipping options. All this is done using a playful interface.

...

The module's interface cannot be missed: it is the first thing you'll see at the top of each and every page of the back-officeback office, before the page's own content.

...

Clicking the "Let's start!" button launches the whole process – which can be interrupted at any time, and finished later on. That process is shared between in a window which appears on top of the back-office back office interface, which will give you instructions to follow, and the main interface itself, where you are expected to follow those instructions.

...

Click on the "OK, go to my catalog" button to make the module's window disappear. The back-office back office page is now the product creation form. Follow through the available fields and various tabs on the left, and do not hesitate to click on the Help button in order to learn more about all the possibilities the PrestaShop offers.

...

Click on the "Show me payment methods" button to make the module's window disappear. The back-office back office page is now the Payment settings page. It presents you with several payment methods.

...

Click on the "Let's see about shipping" button to make the module's window disappear. The back-office back office page is now the Carriers settings page. It presents you with two options: adding a carrier yourself, or using a carrier module.

...

Before you put your shop out of maintenance mode and make it available to everyone on the Internet, you might want to wait a bit and check all the other preference pages in the back-officeback office, making sure that they are all set the way you want them to. If so, do not click on "Launch" and click on the cross button in order to close the module's window.

...

Once you are done, the module does not appear anymore in your back - office.
