Is there any step by step guide for how to setup a campaign? How about using pre-done modules?

I would like to find a way to step by step setup a campaign.  Nothing seems to show the steps.  None of the so called FAQ's seem to have any concrete info.  I have been playing and GMing for several decades and amd very technically lierate, but this seems overwhelming with no guidelines.  Any help would be apprecicated. I bought the Tales from Yawning Portal thinking I could set it up and run quickly.  Cannot even figure out how to see ANYTHING. Thanks. Kelly
I approached my first Roll20 campaign like I did a pencil and paper game.  I built maps, made bad guys, organised how the adventure would run in my game, accepted players, talked about getting the group together. And then my players decided they would straight out of the GM prepared material and into what-the-hells-ville.  Just like in Pencil and Paper.

PM sent! @Coal Powered Puppet - It doesn't seem to matter how technologically advanced we get, players messing with GM prep is a universal truth!
Given a choice A,B or C, players will always choose D. You either need to be ready to improv, or ready to cry over your broken game.
al e. said: Given a choice A,B or C, players will always choose D. You either need to be ready to improv, or ready to cry over your broken game. That's why you only give them options A and B, then they will pick C and think it was their idea.
