The Getting Started checklist
Every new account gets a Getting Started checklist, reachable any time from the dashboard. It tracks three required steps, then opens up the rest of vitelnk once they're done.
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Upload your first video | Click the **Upload Video** button to get started. |
| Add a Call-to-Action | Open your video → **CTA** tab → add a button or link. |
| Share your video | Open your video → **Share** tab → toggle the link active and copy it. |
Steps tick off automatically as you complete them — there's nothing to mark done by hand. Finished steps drop to the bottom of the list so the next thing to do is always on top.
💡 Once all three required steps are done, the checklist reorders itself: Explore other vitelnk features moves to the top, and your completed setup moves below it as a record of what you've finished.
The panel sits in the bottom-right corner of your dashboard. Click its header to collapse it, or Dismiss to shrink it down to a small icon — a rocket while setup is in progress, a compass once you're done. Click that icon any time to bring the full checklist back.
