### Configuration

The first-timers app works without configuration. If you want to change the default settings, create a .github/first-timers.yml file with the content below and then you can adjust the options to your preference.
The first-timers app works without configuration. If you want to change the default settings, create a .github/first-timers.yml file with the content below and then you can adjust the options to your preference. When both the template & the repository is set, then the template is loaded from the _configured_ repository at the configured template path.

This is great :)

I wonder if we could link to Hoodie’s setup as an example? E.g. hoodiehq/first-timers-bot repository’s .github/first-timers.yml file is using hoodiehq/camp repository’s .github/FIRST_TIMERS_ISSUE_TEMPLATE.md file as template to create an issue like this one: hoodiehq/camp#126


```yaml
# You can create the issue in a different repo than where the problem is. Just make sure you installed the bot on the configured repository.
# The issue will link back to the original repository where the contribution will be made.
repository: repo-name

# you can change the labels to suit your needs if "first-timers-only" is not what you are looking for.
# You can change the labels to suit your needs if "first-timers-only" is not what you are looking for.
# These are some examples.
labels:
- first-timers-only
- hacktoberfest

#If you would like to add your own template for the issue, add an .md file to your .github folder
template: .github/first-timers-issue-template.md
template: .github/first-timers-issue-template.md

# You can create the issue in a different repo than where the problem is. Just make sure you installed the bot on the configured repository.
# The issue will link back to the original repository where the contribution will be made.
repository: repo-name
```
**Configuration Example** 🖥 💯

Our `hoodiehq/first-timers-bot` repository’s [`.github/first-timers.yml`](https://github.com/hoodiehq/first-timers-bot/blob/master/.github/first-timers.yml) file is using `hoodiehq/camp` repository’s [`.github/FIRST_TIMERS_ISSUE_TEMPLATE.md`](https://github.com/hoodiehq/hoodie/blob/master/.github/first-timers.yml) file as a template to create an issue such as this one: https://github.com/hoodiehq/camp/issues/126.
