Step-by-Step User Guide With Screenshots Plan
Turn a task into a guide a beginner can follow.
The Open buttons send the prompt text as currently shown below to that site only when you click. Fill in the placeholders first.
Write a user guide for this task: [TASK]. Product and version: [PRODUCT_AND_VERSION]. User level: [USER_LEVEL]. Steps as I know them: [STEPS]. Produce: a title that starts with a verb; a one-sentence outcome; what you need before starting; numbered steps with one action each, naming buttons exactly as they appear; the expected result after key steps; a screenshot plan listing which steps need an image and what it should show, with alt text; warnings placed before the step they apply to; and a troubleshooting table. Do not add steps I have not given you; ask me about gaps. End with a test: have someone unfamiliar follow the guide and record where they hesitate, then revise. Add a short introduction to help readers decide whether this guide is for them, and a final section on what to do next. Use a consistent pattern for naming interface elements, and check that every step starts with a verb. If a step has more than one action, split it. Provide a checklist for the person testing the guide, with places to note confusion, missing steps and any step that took longer than expected.
