Add Issue templates

Open till-m opened this issue 1 year ago • 3 comments

I think adding issue templates to this repository might be a good idea.

Currently users often submit bug reports with problem descriptions that are not particularly helpful. Adding issue templates would encourage users to equip their bug reports with information that should speed-up diagnosis. It might also help add some structure to feature requests. I've made a draft (mostly based around the default github templates), which can be previewed here, but I think there are many ways to skin this particular cat (and most of them are better than not having templates).

good idea!

unfortunately I can't do this - I don't have access to the repository settings as a maintainer :-(

At least, it seems that adding the .workflows/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/template.md is not enough, I have to do it through settings - is that also your understanding?

Sorry, things are a bit hectic on my end at the moment, I will investigate when I can.

Hey @bwheelz36,

I tested the following:

  1. Create a new repository
  2. Create the two templates
  3. Commit and push to master

See here.

This seems to work. I think the problem with your attempt was a mix-up in the folder structure -- you placed the template in .github/workflows/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/ when the file should've been in .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/.

I'll open a pull request that should ideally work out of the box.

ah - doh! thanks for double checking and resolving, that should be a massive improvement.
