Go to My Campaigns, select it and hit the Play button.

Once inside, you can open the Story window or the book. Older campaigns pit all the content under Story. Newer campaigns placed it under Book area.

As noted on the Start here page open Books click on Campaign and you can then read the page that opens. Click on the next arrow at the bottom of the window to go to the next page. You can click on Links in the pages to take you to whatever it's linked to such as an image or an encounter. Just follow the instructions given in each page. Do note that this is simply a tutorial to help get you started in Fantasy Grounds VTT. It's not a campaign in the sense that you would play a solo game.

So, Whiskey. What are you trying to get done?

Have you ever played a roleplaying game before? Have you ever been the DM?

The others here are trying to run you through the steps to create a campaign, or game world, for others to play in.

Is that what you are expecting?

[Whiskey Rye]

I have played and DMd. I want to play DnD on FG. I want to play it first, then make campaigns. Then both. It looks nice. I hope I can do this.
