In the Branding Editor, go to Edit HTML pages and click the Edit button on the line labeled Getting Started popup Include.
You can get to the branding editor via WHM by going to WHM -> cPanel -> Branding and clicking on the link for X3. From there, you will see the styles available on your server. Click the button below the style you wish to edit that says Edit this style to edit that style.
You may also consider clicking the Create/Upload Branding button at the top to create your own distributable style based off one of our existing styles.
Simple, go to WHM -> Packages -> Feature Manager select the disabled list and then on the page that appears uncheck Getting Started Wizard then click the save button at the bottom of that page. This will disable this for all users on the server and will prevent resellers from re-enabling this functionality.
That is a currently known bug and our developers and designers are working to resolve this issue. Internal Case 4569
Oh, I so love it when I find I'm not imagining things...
Thanks fo the update Dave, is there a bug tracker I can track? Or will you let us know resolution here?

I don't see a bugzilla entry for it. However, when the issue is resolved, it will very likely be included on the changelog: http://changelog.cpanel.net
I went to the Getting Started popup area and am not able to locate where the actual text for the pop up box is located in the template. How can I edit the text of the pop up to make it a bit more clear to my beginning webmasters that they do not necessarily need all the features the Wizard drags them through?
Any further instruction would be much appreciated.
I did finally figure out how to add additional text, but not how to edit the existing text.
Anyway, now can someone please tell me how I can change the height of the popup box so all the text shows rather than a scrollbar and they can see all the information at once? I really only need to add about 25 pixels to the height. This would be a tremendous help to me if someone can please oblige.
Thank you for your time and expertise.

Since this is language-aware functionality, the actual text is not hard-coded in the file - rather the text is pulled from the language files using cpanel langprint tags. Those tags in the code are what allows phrases to be taken from the language file and displayed in the cPanel interface.
So you have 2 options: First, hard-code your own values and remove the cpanel langprint tags. In the process, you will be removing the language awareness of this functionality. Otherwise, you can create your own language file and edit the wording for the language tags relating to the getting started wizard. The first option gives you more flexibility in terms of how you wish to word and space things. The second option is good if you are hosting customers who speak different languages.
I recommend editing the CSS as appropriate. The Firebug extension for Firefox will assist you greatly in determining what CSS you need to modify and will let you play with different CSS code before implementing it into cPanel.
Of note: the getting started pop up is located at: /usr/local/cpanel/base/frontend/x3/branding/getstarted-pop.html
To make it disappear:
You will need to use a custom branding package/style. You can clone one of the base packages if you aren't using a custom package.
Simply add this to the reseller's branding package root: /home/{username}/cpanelbranding/x3/{brandingpackagename}/getstarted-pop.html:

I like most of the new X3 features, but certain things simply should not be present, especially popups that eventually lead shared hosting customers directly to the cPanel.net web site (kind of asking for trouble there, and I'm guessing your going to see a lot of end-users show up here asking for support that they should be getting from us hosts instead). By editing the branding to ditch all the popups and direct links to stuff on cPanel.net, we're not just able to to avoid having customers who ask "how come I don't see Joomla in my cpanel addons list like it shows in the help popups?" etc..., but also making sure they come to us for their hosting support and not here.
With the help of posts from cPanel staff on here, I've been able to get rid of the "getting started" popup, change the master "Help" icon at the top to go to my own support desk instead of cpanel.net, and get rid the the cpanel.net links at the bottom of the end-user's cpanel itself. This not only puts the support control back into our hands as the host, but helps avoid sending regular shared hosting customers here when they shouldn't be (and just creates confusion for the end customer).
