First steps

Confirm your email: after signing up, press Confirm your email in the welcome email. Until then a bar in the back office reminds you (with Send the link again) and the account sends no emails to other people (staff invitations, newsletters). Sign-up takes only real email addresses, not throwaway mailboxes.

The Getting started page in the back office shows what is done and what comes next. Most steps tick themselves once you do them; mark the others with Done ✓. When you open a step from the guide, a dark bar at the top shows which step you are on: press Next step → to move on, or Guide to go back to the list. Hide the guide with Hide guide.
