Hi all,

The Bootstrap Tour project is pretty dead and PluginTour doesn't work in 
Tiki branch 25. Even the demo on doc.t.o./PluginTour seems to just 
partially work.

So we need to find an alternative to Bootstrap Tour. Maybe

* Shepherd -- https://shepherdjs.dev/  or
* Vue Tour -- https://pulsardev.github.io/vue-tour/

-- or something else listed at:

* https://js.libhunt.com/bootstrap-tour-alternatives or
* https://www.libhunt.com/topic/tour
