It seems that now even the option of converting "issue to discussion" is missing, is it on purpose? |

That one, it's true. I tried converting to discussion on the corresponding issue a few days ago as well. I wonder if the feature has been disabled because the link to convert from issue to discussion is missing for all but the issue in question... |

according to the docs, it shall be possible, so it is a bug? |

@Borda @erikr and anyone else following along: we have recently disabled the ability to convert issues into discussions because of a few bugs that folks have made us aware of. we're working to resolve this issue and will be re-enabling conversions as soon as all of the underlying issues (no pun intended) are resolved. i'll keep you posted on when we re-enable conversions. |

Are there any updates on the progress here (in terms of the "is it possible this is a weeks-long problem" question)? We are also very much looking forward to the feature being re-enabled :) |

It would be helpful if this was mentioned in the documentation for the feature. I spent a long time looking for the feature and searching around until I found this thread. |

I also cannot convert issues into discussion anymore. I've converted multiple using the "Convert this issue to discussion" button but it's missing now (?). If I remember correctly these were part of the button in the bottom but I can't find it anymore.

What kind of problem can you think of? Also, is there anything I can do as a repository administrator?
Thank you.
