Pull Request resolves # .

  • I read the Generative AI policy and my contribution is either not created with the help of AI or is compatible with the policy and GNU/GPL 2 or later.

Summary of Changes

This PR will:

  • add a tour that highlights new features introduced in Joomla 6.1,
  • remove the autostart tour of the prior release.

Testing Instructions

Download the update package, not the full install as the tour is only available on updates!

It is possible to find the tour in the list of tours at the top of the Joomla dashboard and run it manually.
Make sure you see images when running the tour (on the first step only) and when editing the tour (System -> Manage -> Guided tours).

Actual result BEFORE applying this Pull Request

No tour highlighting new features for Joomla 6.1.

Expected result AFTER applying this Pull Request

The What’s New in Joomla 6.1! tour is available and should start automatically when in the dashboard or in the system area.

@obuisard
The tour started automatically. I assume that has been changed with your latest commit
62e4315.

You might want to modify the test description.

I forgot to mention it, indeed, thanks for the feedback :-)

@tecpromotion thats a techinical code level differentation. The Whats new tour is user facing and in that context they are new fields

Technically, no new custom fields have been added. This is controlled purely via the XML and the template. The wording can, of course, be further adapted.

The Guided Tour team decided on 'Three media custom field options'. It seems to be good for user and developer alike.
