Hi all, I was wondering if some of the experienced persons could give me some adhesive and prep advice for large format tiles

Tiles are Colorker Kawaii stone collection 1000mm x 316mm x 9.7mm (or 10.4mm) ceramic tiles.(Approx 18.25Kg/m2)

I am intending tiling onto :
1 - Shower walls- Plasterboard coated with Mapei shower waterproofing kit prior to tiling.
2 - Other walls - Plasterboard.

Does the bare plasterboard need acrylic primer or similar, e.g. Mapei G or BAL APD, or can tile adhesive be applied direct to plasterboard.
What adhesive is recommended for these tiles.

Many thanks
