You can encourage contributors to use issue templates by setting `blank_issues_enabled` to `false`. If you set `blank_issues_enabled` to `true`, everyone with access to the repository will see the **Blank issue** option in the template chooser. When `blank_issues_enabled` is set to `false`, users with write access or above (Write, Maintain, or Admin roles) will still see the **Blank issue** option in the template chooser, labeled **Maintainers only**. Contributors with Read or Triage roles will only see the configured templates.

> [!NOTE]
> If you used the legacy workflow to manually create an `issue_template.md` file in the `.github` folder and enable blank issues in your _config.yml_ file, the template in `issue_template.md` will be used when people choose to open a blank issue. If you disable blank issues, the template will never be used.

If you prefer to receive certain reports outside of {% data variables.product.github %}, you can direct people to external sites with `contact_links`.

Here is an example _config.yml_ file.
